    Music while building

    Just had a couple of hours at the bench, building and listening to music, which got me thinking if any members listen to music while building. Tonight it was Scorpions. Two more of my favourites are Paloms Faith and Rag n Bone Man.

      I like to listen to different types of music, at the moment it's mostly Genessis, Pink Floyd, The Killers and Carter USM.

        I don’t very often but when I do, I go into Morse mode and listen to classical music. I find it less distracting than ‘popular music’. That isn’t as snobbish as it sounds as modelling at the bench is the only time I do listen to classical now.

          Music yes!

          King Crimson, Gentle Giant, YES, Wishbone Ash, Caravan, Rainbow, Dream Theater, Jethro Tull, Neal Morse, Mike Keneally etc.
          But only when building. I don't tend to listen to music when I paint for some reason? Not planned, just the habit.

              Radio 2 usually, depending on what time of day it is, but yes, there's always something on in the background.

                Yes I listen to music whilst building. It tends to be whatever the daughter is playing in her room next to me !

                    I usually have something on in the background, but having quite eclectic tastes this can range from motown, punk and ska to techno, garage and hip hop, and pretty much anything in between.

                    The only thing I truly hate is country and western. Not sure why??

                      I love music, but when I’m working on the workbench..... my choice is the silence.

                        You're not alone there but out of respect for the remote chance that someone actually listens to that stuff I'm not saying anything more...

                            I love country and western - not the music, just the short leather skirts and spurs!

                            I'm not writing what the wife wears!.........:hungry:
