The radio in my shop is set on the local university station,,,,so what ever they play is what I listen to,,, The music they play ranges from R & B,,,,jazz,,,rock,,,bluegrass,,,country to celtic,,,a little of everything,, HRP
Same stuff I normally listen to. A bit of everything really, little Psychobilly, rockabilly, oldies, older blues (Muddy & the Wolf kinda stuff) some old punk (Ramones, Sex pistols) some newer rock and sometime just the radio... Todd
Mainly my ipod. I have a wide variety of music on it. Everything from Doo Wop to the Doors. I have a LOT of blues, including Stevie Ray, Clapton, early Fleetwood Mac, Peter Green and many others. My favorite artists are Robin Trower, Pink Floyd, and Flogging Molly. I am convinced that the ipod is one of the greatest inventions of all time...kinda like the cordless drill.
Mostly, I listen to my wife yelling when am I going to stop spending all my time in the shop. I am past the age of trying to turn her on. I just want to know how to turn her off!!!!!!!
Have aTV in the garage and love having a footrball game on or a Nascar race. If not that, I have sirius satelite radio.
Slim Cessnas Auto Club ( The best band ever! IMHO ) Johnny Cash Marty Robins (Cowboy songs) Hank Williams Dropkick Murphys Suicidal Tendencies MXPX Social Distortion Hatebreed Spineshank
Oldies = Doo Wop, Early Beach Boys, any car related song, and watching any old racing DVDs...yea that be it...
Got a serrius radio about 3 years ago and i dont know how i got by without it .This thing has been going for no less than 16 hours a day for 3 years.When i unplg it to put it in my car or in my shop it is hot to the touch.My wife thinks im batshit crazy with my music tastes i go from octane to grunge to oldies to blues.Mostly the less heard stuff.The radio has killed too many good tunes.
Depending upon the day, a Mariners game on the ancient black and white tv (hey it was 5.00 at a yard sale 10 years ago and still works) or either a game, my favorite oldies station got sold and switched formats so it is usually the local country station that I have listened to for the past 25 years.
