I was just wondering, if you do have music in the background, what you readers of RJ are listening to (whilst reading an RJ novel, of course)?

Nope, not me. If I'm concentrating on a book I wouldn't hear the music anyway.

all i really listen to is coheed and cambria, rush and the mars volta, but, seeing as they're all pretty epic and/or creating concept albums, i think they go well together, but that's just me.

Well, today I was finishing up Crisscross, and I had some Elvis on of all things. It's the new one out: Elvis: 30 #1 Hits. I was down to 50 pages, and I kept getting distracted towards the end so I had to let Elvis leave the building.

Predator soundtruck. It's definitely fit to RJ novels. Alan Sylvestri's music is all good things, after all.

Usally if a song is involved in my reading, it's because I listened to it before!
I concentrate on a book so hard I don't hear anything! One song that stuck with me when I read "Enemy of the State" was Tesla's "Freedom Slaves"! Somehow it works!

I never listen to music when I read; it distracts for me, rather than enhances. I find I gotta have music when I'm doing something less brain-busy, like drawing, but good books keep me completely occupied

Like most of you, although I love to think of what songs would comprise a great "soundtrack" for an RJ book, I absolutely cannot listen to anything while reading anymore. My multi-tasking days in that area were over the day I hit 30. I find this especially true of books that I want to be absorbed in. After I get absorbed and on a roll, an entire marching band could enter my (very tiny) home and I probably wouldn't notice (much, anyway).

Or are you just admitting that you are 30 today?

Either way, Happy Birthday!

I'm with you, Sangwyn. I need peace and quiet to concentrate. I don't want to be distracted by anything because I'm so RIGHT THERE when I'm reading, especially thrilling adventures. I am IN the story.
P.S. I happily admit that I'm post-30. I am SOOOOO post-30, 30 looks positively child like!
