A project ‘war room’ can be a pretty dreary place, so what better way to jazz things up a bit and get those juices flowing than a bit of a music. Unfortunately for some of my colleagues I’m the only one with a music collection with me and the on-site contacts to refresh it, allowing me almost unmitigated control of the playlist.
I’m doing quite well in offending people so far. The Chemical Brothers have been described as “noise” while the Beastie Boys gained the moniker of “monkey music” and there’s a whole project full of people left to offend. My chillout selection (Lamb, Massive Attack, DJ Shadow and Air) has only gained a few sneers, but nothing strongly negative yet, which is a shame.
The Foo Fighters are going down well and somewhat surprisingly, so is Korn.

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
Ha!
A bit of Foo always goes down well.
You know those 2 Aussies who got trapped in that Mine Collapse?
When the rescuers got the air hole to them and asked if they wanted an MP3 player in the meantime, guess what was requested?
Yep- Foo.
Dave Grohl said he was so touched that when they do Oz for their tour he was going to get the two guys VIP tickets and take them out for a beer.
Even more funny that only 1 of them initially liked Foo- the other one was a Country & Western fan (freak)- but got Foo’d instead.
Heh.
Mind you- I like your comment about “Monkey Music”- snigger.
Funny.
Time for:
Rammstein (Du Hast)
GLC (Your missus is a nutter)
The Prodigy (Smack my bitch up)
