Classical, even though I play guitar in a punk rock band. It's the best playing music!

None, there's nothing worse than not being able to get a tune out of one's head during a game!

I usually listen to rock before a game.

Maybe some slow piano music, to calm me down. I'm usually almost shaking in anxiety before a game.

I listen to music before and during all the games I play on here............no clue how many games its cost me so far since half the time i'm singing along while making random moves opposed to paying close attention...........but its more fun that way so I don't care that much :)

never been in a tournament though............but it would be rock ;)

A quick listen to the intro theme from Pac-Man and then we're off!  Works especially well with blitz chess.

i don't like hearing music.

Chessroshi

Sound of Silence - Simon and Garfunkle

The song is eerily relaxing and is all about destruction, which is basically the same way I feel about chess.

Nods to Jimbo

Ambach

Yes Sir!,,,,,,,even when i am sleeping i am listning to everything, and hear them all.

Also the music,my music and all good music no exceptions.

Silence is for after the dead. The grave yard.

Peace!!!!
