Similar to what Liam said, I don't wear headphones while running outside. I can't hear the bicyclists sneaking up on me from behind. But at the gym, I <i>have</i> to listen to music.<br><br>
During my formative years (i.e., high school), there were two popular musical genres: Disco and Punk/New Wave. I went the punk/new wave route. That still influences what I listen to today, although they call it Alternative now. So my iPod is full of both old stuff (Ramones, The Clash, Buzzcocks, The Cars, Blondie, Devo, B-52's, etc.), and newer stuff (Offspring, Social Distortion, Foo Fighters, Snow Patrol, Cracker, Midnight Oil, Garbage, etc.). I also have some classic rock: Bruce Springsteen, Led Zeppelin, Eagles, Dire Straits, The Who, Ted Nugent, Pink Floyd, and Steve Miller.<br><br>
Last night on the elliptical trainer, I had to listen to Social Distortion to get me through my workout. Tonight? Who knows!!
