How often do you get the chance

HeyWayne

Well, for the first time in a while I actually listened to some music with no other distractions...

I listened to the Pearl Jam session on the Zane Lowe show on Radio 1 (earlier in the week), and they had an interview with the guys and played three songs from Backspacer (Got Some, Fixer and The End).

D'ya know what? I loved it!

I'm going to do it more often, and am just about to buy myself some new headphones.

Yes, you do. I took some time today just to listen to Backspacer and what a nice afternoon it was.

for me, its sort of required. I need to hear music. Need to hear it. It sort of is the deciding factor in my life. I moved to an apartment for the sole reason its literally 50 feet from a music venue in town that I volunteer at. I volunteer at this venue, or try to for every single show. And I frequently go to concerts elsewhere.

For me, music is like my insulin, or beer, or drug. I have to have it to start the day. And have to have it to end the day. If I am not at a show, I am listening to music, or wishing I was able to.

I frequently, put on headphones, lie on my bed, turn the lights out and just relax, letting the music roll over me.

For me, just sitting down and quietly listening to music, its the only thing that matters.

i'm thankful that i have a job where i can listen to amazing music every day. i love that we get great cds in and that we don't have a set playlist that we adhere to. i don't always get to initially absorb what it is that i'm listening to in depth...but i'm glad that it's not elevator music and more on the up-and-coming side of it all. makes the work day a little more tolerable!!

it took the "ICE STORM OF THE CENTURY" for me to finally be able to do this. This past January we went without electricity for 2 weeks & EVERYTHING in town was closed....as soon as the sun went down, it was just me & PJ till I fell asleep. Since then, I try & do this at least once a week....there's just nothing like turning the music up & tuning the world out!!!

awesome!
i did the whole 'totsal music absorption' saturday night. BLASTED backspacer in the LR, 7 channel enhanced setting, on the sofa with the subwoofer behind me, lights off - just lots of candles and wine - played a few times over. fantastic....

we have speakers wired to every room almost in the house and all outside sitting areas
music follows me in my daily routine and I'm working from home now so I'm lucky to listen then too
I can't imagine not having it on but that was how I was raised- my father put in a central music system back in the early 60's and music was always on.

Sounds like my kinda house!! - also sounds expensive though.

My new headphones arrived yesterday, now all I need is my copy of Backspacer to arrive....
