    I listen to violence filled rap music. The more gun sounds the better.

    Classical/opera. I like a lot of music but Classical can be listened to for long hours without getting boring.

    Just about everything. It's all mood dependent. Could be political podcast, then over to some sci/fi related podcasts, then some 80's rock, then random talk radio, then 70's rock, then some house/trance, then some classic country, then some 80's/90's metal, then alternative, grunge, old school hip hop/rap, then a little more of this, a little more of that.

    My listening tastes are all over the board, all day and night. I love music and it can genuinely impact your day for the better, I believe. It makes me recall my previous assigned rig. First day on the job, the boss gave me the keys to a sweet 1999 379 with a fresh rebuilt 60 series Detroit, new rubber all around, 7 inch straights, brand new drivers seat, peaked and tuned cb system, fridge, inverter, drop visor, bell and whistles everywhere and to top it all off, get this, a god #### TAPE PLAYER for a radio. How in the hell everything on the truck had been touched and replaced/updated but the radio was beyond me. Couldn't get channels to save my life and I sure as hell didn't have any tapes laying around. I made it 2 days and said #### this. Went and bought a cd player (yea I still have cd's) it also had bluetooth/usb port and installed that thing in the yard. Life was sweet after that. Could have bought that truck for a steal when he decided to sell his 6 trucks, but I didn't have the spare cash laying around, or enough to make me feel comfortable in terms of a "maintenance fund" so I passed, which I regret everyday.
