I have to agree with Mike's response to Chris' message. It would be 
impossible for me as well to not listen to music for a day.  Especially 
rock.  

Chris also mentioned that not listening for a day would lead to 
accomplishing all sorts of tasks that listening to music was prviously 
preventing.  I don't know about Chris but for as far back as I can 
remember, like back in the 60s, I'd actually listen to rock in order to 
get things done, from homework, to housework, to painting a room etc. 
It also is impossible to do any kind of highway or long-distance 
driving without something interesting on the CD player, otherwise you 
would really fall asleep from boredom.  

Finally, as most people know, a favorite tune or artist can change your 
mood aside from banishing boredom.  For rock music to be as popular as 
it is world-wide, it must usually be a positive change...
