Rock Music and Chess

I love to play chess and I love rock and roll. To me they are the perfect combination. When I decide to play a few games of chess online I always find a CD of one of my favorite bands and crank it up pretty loud before I begin to play. The rock music gives me inspiration to play a strong game against my opponents. It provides the soundtrack for a glorious battle on the chessboard. I don't know what other people like to do while they play chess, but this is what works for me. I have included some pictures below of my favorite bands that I listen to while I play chess.

Ted Nugent

Black Sabbath

Led Zeppelin

Deep Purple

Jimi Hendrix

Lynyrd Skynyrd

Iron Maiden
