whistle while you work

here at outlaw design blog i found a blog post where he asked a number of his designer friends what they listened to while they worked.

i always think about this because it is almost impossible for me to sit in silence while i am working.

lilian, who is the last on the post, chose explosion in the sky who i love. they are definitely top 5 for getting those creative juices flowing on my list.

leave a comment with your choices!!

my friend zack just called up and told me to check out the sasquatch festival.

this would be crazy fun. kings of leon, avett brothers, bon iver, demetri martin (kinda random but love it) and soo many more. three days AND camping.
