in reply to Rap Star I would most like as my Project Manager

Wow. This is a toughie... Nowadays there are SOOOO menay choices...It's like choosing a single Guitar God in the 70's...no matter who you choose you feel like someone's being left out...

Thought I'm very tempted to choose FlavorFlav due to his unbridled enthusiasm, I would opt for Chuck D since his Public Enemy songs reflect more intelligence IMHO...

Busta Ryhmes might be a good motivator since he admitted that he used to sell crack..

And as for creative inspiration I'm thinking B Real (of Cypress Hill) would supply the goods..

But, having actually seen all of these guys live, I'm going to have to go with King Adrock of the Beastie Boys. No one comes close to his energy level. I remember years ago when they headlined Lollapoluzzalayayayoyodynde and he was off the hook.

Oh & before y'all start thinking that you can discern something about me from these comments...I'm much closer to the guy in Office Space turning down his radio while driving through the 'hood so he doesn't get shot at than some script-kiddie-wannabe-gangbanger. I go to to lots of very diverse concerts. By far the best shows I've ever seen are a heated tie between Jane's Addiction & Deep Purple.

It might be an interesting poll to ask what kind of music people listen to when they code. I think it actually makes a difference in your concentration level. I for one, listen to techno...



Wait! This isn't a Parachute, this is a Backpack!

    It all depends. If I have a bead on what I'm doing, I like Punk Rock. If I need a little inspiration, it's Techno-Industrial (Thrill Kill Kult, Ministry, Front Line Assembly). Sometimes, I just need to drown everyone out and essentially turn my ears off. For that, I put on headphones with some ambiant techno or trance. I'm not really a fan of the stuff, but it's really easy to ignore while it's drowning out office chatter.
