Flytyer Posted October 23, 2007 Share Posted October 23, 2007 I'm doing some tying this afternoon and this question pops into my mind. What does everyone have going on for background noise while tying if anything? I myself load the cds of my 3 favourite albums from Pink Floyd; The Delicate Sound of Thunder, The Division Bell and Pulse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bigbadbrent Posted October 23, 2007 Share Posted October 23, 2007 itunes on random, so 2100 plus songs...i change them if they're not quite right Explosions in the sky is my band of choice as of late usually im watching a movie though, but then my tying rate plummets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No Dark Side?? I have to replace Dark Side it went missing. You just reminded me of Glimour's About Face which is excellent too. When I take a bit of a break I'll pick up my bass and play abit .

SanJuanWorm Posted October 23, 2007 Share Posted October 23, 2007 I have the TV going usually. Doesn't matter what show is on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lonefisher Posted October 23, 2007 Share Posted October 23, 2007 I usually just pop my laptop on the table and play through my whole library. Sometime while doing flies that need drying time I will watch a movie as currently I only usually have 3 jawed apparatus's to hold the flies while they dry.

My top 3 would be Dark Side of the Moon, The Wall and possibly The Final Cut....big fan of those guys. I recently saw Roger perform DSotM and checked off a life goal tickbox....nice.

SilverDoctor Posted October 24, 2007 Share Posted October 24, 2007 Oldies on the radio. I tie out in the garage in my art studio. Often I take my laptop Mac out there and run through the songs I have in Itunes. Usually to the tune of scampering mice, wifes asking if I want anything, and various son's and friends coming and going stealing my wine. Don't always listen to music it does play in my head. Downside is that the studio is not heated (an extension on my garage) so I need to turn on the heater for 20 minutes in the winter to make it livable. Maybe we should do a posting showing everyones tying area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CapeBSalar Posted October 24, 2007 Share Posted October 24, 2007 I usually watch fly tying DVD's on my laptop, Troutbum Diaries Patagonia and New Zealand are also high on the top of the list, other movies too when I get tired of the other. Sometimes music, but rarely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
