I hope you're getting paid well to put up with that shit.

Music is allowed in my workplace but you have to wear headphones.

Fatback

Play this for him.

Oh I rock headphones all day everyday.

But every now and then something strange happens. In between the Satriani & show tunes I'll hear Cardova or Hand Clapping Song. Guy's got some eclectic taste.

Haha, Chester Thompson busting out some "Final Countdown" Casio licks. I love these fake mashups. Hadn't seen this one before.

Don't the Meters have a following amongst jam-band dudes as a result of some latter-day incarnation touring as "The Funky Meters"?

Most definitely but that guy is mega disconnected from the jam band experience.

The Crash Test Dummies? WTF? He seems like an allternative rock casualty.

At my last job there was a guy that brought a personal laptop in and had it on the network. iTunes ended sharing a huge collection of porn on the network. Doing some network tracing I tracked the laptop down and told the guy to take it off the network before someone complained to HR. He claimed it was his son's laptop and then turned beet red all embarrassed.

I'd be pretty happy to hear some Type O Negative at my work, at least. Don't know about the rest of that list, though...

C - what's good


Eric Johnson is a guitar player for the uber guitar worshiper. He's got incredible tone and insane ears (he can tell you what type of batteries you put in his effects pedals). Musically (as you've heard) he's like the Kenny G of guitar players, except every guitar player in the Vai/Satriani/G3 vein considers him offically THAT DUDE.

when dude steps away from his desk for a prolonged period of time, you can rate his music so the shit you give 5 stars (Meters, Type O, etc) will play more often than the songs with lower/no rating.

Oh boy. Mark Cohn. That song Walking in Memphis makes me want to go postal.

This is what I donated to my work environment.

Its hooked up in the ceiling too. My coworker has brought some of his most beloved artifacts from his motherland of Budapestz. These are the balkan bangers he is always jamming to,

the cigany stuff is gypsy music, and it's like eastern european folk fiddling with hype men going 'yeh yeh yeh yeh' and saying shit like pick it up, andelay andelay in cigan.
Then he goes for the prog shit p. mobil and omega, and he gets stoked off of his commie Priest record. There is also the national story of the motherland in rock opera form along with his hungarian versions of jesus christ superstar.

His records are the dustiest I've ever seen, putting them on is like grooming a cat or dog. I need to get a new needle now and I wonder if I can find a replacement for this old sansui.
He also listens to this group Pyramis which is like a Hungarian Pink Floyd but I don't see it in the bag for some reason.
