Mrs DDC is not terribly interested in recorded music, she plays pop radio when driving (alone) and some favourites when pottering around at home, but that is about it. The idea of sitting down in an evening and actually 'listening' to music is not going to happen.
I don't know ANY female that would do that.
My other half has 'music' playing in the background if she does something else.
Audiophiles are weird.
Or did, but I agree it is pretty rare.
It is really the contrast of her love of live music with her disinterest for recorded music that is interesting.
The only time I can remember her really reacting to recorded music was at the Hard Rock in La Jolla. About 15yrs back I slipped the DJ $5 to play Hysteria, the then new single by her favourite band. The DJ guy was great, dimming the lights, Muse live on a big projection screen, volume cranked up, I had to physically restrain Mrs DDC from getting up and dancing on the table!
Best $5 ever spent!
