I enjoy music and I actually spent 5 years in the music biz as tour/business manager for touring musicians, and never tired of watching some of the artists I worked with perform night after night. And my taste is pretty eclectic, everything from jazz to new age to rock to go-go (if anyone remembers that).

The weird thing is, though, I don't work well with auditory stimulation while doing other things. I'm usually not effective at listening to music while writing, working, reading or studying, and I can carry on 4 IM convos and do work on my computer, but I absolutely can't talk on the phone and do anything else at the same time.

BTW, if everyone isn't already familiar with Pandora.com, you should definitely check it out. You put in the name or names of artists or songs you like, and it plays some selections from your list, and also plays you a bunch of new stuff that has similar attributes.
