In the garage I love to listen to blues/rock like The Black Keys, Seasick Steve, and also some hard folk/country like Ryan Bingham.

I like a little bit of everything, though. I'm usually listening to Pandora, so the songs are random.

What do you listen to when you need to get stuff done?

80s Metal usually, Judas Priest, Iron Maiden. Sometimes Bad Brains, Black Flag, Celtic Frost. Depends on what I'm working on. Sometimes 70s outlaw country. You know the real country music Waylon, Willie, Tom T. Hall, David Allen Coe, none of that modern ****.

ipod with about 6500 songs. Most are 60s-70s Classic Rock. The rest is 80s- 90s rock, a little bit of Country, Oldies. Ipod is one of the best garage tools ever! Keeps me happy and focused.

90% of what I listen to in my shop is Dream Theater, as my wife can't stand it. The shop is the one place I can really listen to my favorite band as loud as I want!

depends what Im working on. If I need calm, I listen to Simon and Garfunkle. If I need to hurry its 90's grunge, if Im doing repetative stuff like sanding or blasting 70's rock, dont know why, just works.........

Any loud thrashing rock and heavy metal gets me in the zone to beat metal into submission. My wife always gets scared when I listen to outlaw country, she says I'm a different guy all day. Just recently got my shop wired for internet so Pandora is great.

I remember trying to change the garage radio to rock when I was a teenager wrenching with my dad in the 1980's. :) He'd get mad and make me put it back on country/western.



I put in "Colin Hay" on my Pandora app, and I've been listening to that channel a lot lately. He is the lead singer of Men at Work. I like the songs/groups that pop up when I listen to that channel.

If I listen to music, Classic Rock. Rush, AC/DC, Boston, Gun's & Roses, Steve Miller Band, The Who.......... most any good classic rock. But my favorite is playing movies on the tv cranked up on the stereo, love movies I can repeat nearly every line verbatim. Jaws, Top Gun, Days Thunder, Shawshank, Starwars any of them, Seven, Risky Business, Goonies,

I am a clean cut guy, but I listen to an eclectic mix of hateful music when working on the race car.

Usually industrial, dub step or stuff like disturbed, pantera...




My wife questions my sanity when she hears it.

Nothing.
I want to hear the dropped washer, which in doing its best to get lost, whispers to me:
'tink'
and then does a singing roll under the lowest set cabinet it can find, or, if particularly ambitious/rare/last one, will find way clear across the room due to its gymnastic partner, the screwdriver pretending to be a prybar. That's a screamed 'tink' upon the execution of the jump, and a usually quite distant 'tink' upon the tuck and roll portion of the routine.

Work sounds are too exquisite to muddle.
Ratchets, torches, hacksaw on pvc versus the same saw playing a tune on stainless tube.
the deep song a sheet of copper sings which is different than the galvanized song.
The swivel caster, that won't.
The faintest spark from the lowest battery.

No place for anything contrived.
