Tunes at the fly bench?

Recommended Posts

I thought this would be a neat one to talk about. Who listens to some music while tying flies? If so, what plays at your bench? I usually have Led Zeppelin, Styx, Metallica, or Black Sabbath playing while I'm tying. Nothing wrong with rocking out at the bench right? B)

 

Rarely am I ever in the mood for country, but some some reason I have a couple Oak Ridge Boys songs pop up every now and then. OOM-PA-PA-MOW-MOW ;)

gpd4,

 

You will probably like WCPE. I am close enough to receive the FM signal, but I think they provide an excellent online streaming service, and they broadcast 24/7.

Here are some of the topics, you can find many answers in there but I'm sure some people have changed their music taste. Before I hated country but now I love listening to some country.

I don't like the distraction. I love good jazz and bluegrass, espsecially live performances, and classical makes great driving music. But when I listen to music I like to focus on the music. I pretty much tie quietly. Maybe it's just that one track mind my wife claims I have...

depends on the day anything from metal, bluegrass, country, to some classic rock and roll, or even classical music. I think my preferences come down to what fly i am tying. If i am tying some monster of a fly-metal seems to be the choice, classic trout patterns deserve classical music, and just tying i will prefer to listen to bluegrass or country its what I like best.

These days i have become fond of sitting down at the bench with a stack of vinyl, i will set up the vice, put a record on, reach over and flip it when needed or put a new disc on, just love the sound, so rich and full. And i have so many records, probably close to 8000.

 

Speaking of vinyl here is a kool set of pictures of famous people with their vinyl.

Well this month my taste of music changed when tying flies. I'm now listening to Contemporary Instrumental.Piano solos, acoustic ensembles, Celtic, world, and classical interpretations.

 

I also enjoy listening to all the puremoods & instrumentalmoods on the Ipod. B)
