Ya'll might think this is strange since I'm a musician. But when I brew I prefer to not listen to any music or even talk radio. I read during the down parts and think of the whole process as kinda a Zen thing. Nice and quiet (except when I mess up something and then I disturb the quiet with my cursing.) :)

all the best to the homebrewing community!
 
Not strange at all. My mother is a retired music teacher/symphony violinist/string quartet musician and, when she was off the clock, she'd say "no more notes!" and would insist on having the car radio off in favor of blissful silence.
 
I also like to base my music choices around the style of beer I'm brewing. If I'm brewing an American-style beer it's usually Havok, Skeltonwitch, or Allegaeon. German beers bring out Destruction, Sodom, or Kreator. It's a little harder with Belgians, but I have a couple Aborted albums I enjoy.
 
Yooper,
Your close to my neck of the woods. Check out Luckenbach, 11th St bar in Bandera, Floores Country Store in Helotes, Sisterdale General Store, Hondos in Fredericksburg. Red dirt or brew talk on when I'm brewing.
 
I'm all over the place too. Recently been listening to Fat Freddy's Drop, Earthless, Causa Sui. Took some advice from an earlier poster and have been listening to Cross Canadian Ragweed and Stoney Larue tonight. Great tunes and would be great for an early morning brew day.
