Is this spooky or what. I was only thinking this same question last night as I was in the shed.

I've tried all sorts, local radio, one of the big ones, but I've ended up with you Paul, a bit of smooth jazz from one of the internet radio stations.

Nice.

Classic rock music AC/DC, Led Zep, Hendrix, Deep Purple, Van Halen, etc! Keep it loud!

I just pop the iPod on random, I then get anything from chilled, to dance, trance, rock, metal all sorts. Vangelis and Massive Attack or Mike Oldfield are good ways to lose a few hours.

My music comes from the itunes player on the pc, set on random. Like some of the other guys with good taste on here theres plenty of AC/DC then every thing from Glenn Miller, Cheryl Crow(not Cole) to Rage Against the Machine, Machine Head and lots of Metallica. Right now it's Slayer "War Ensemble" an all is happy in the workshop. Strictly no Beautiful South, ever.

He said, smugly. I missed that one, it sold out in a nano second. Did get to see them headline Donington in 2010, they create a great party atmosphere. Theres a absolutly spot on tribute band called Livewire, well worth seeing, they have both a Brian Johnson and a Bon Scott

I used to play in an AC/DC tribute band called High Voltage back in 2001-2003 that's why I mention them as I do think what they have done for 3 chords is extraordinary (I used tom play the rhythm in the band which is 3 chords)!! Our lead guitarist is now in Limehouse Lizzy (Tim Read) so if you are a Lizzy fan, make sure you see these guys! Close your eyes & you will swear you are listening to the real thing!!
