Do you listen to your music with your eyes open or closed or a combination of both?

Lights off, eyes closed. I find that my sense of hearing is enhanced when my sense of sight is removed from the equation. The background is blacker, the "tweak" is free and the speakers actually disappear.

Hopefully not!  Makes me wonder -- did Picasso actually paint that from life? It's hard to imagine anyone could sustain such a posture for very long.

I just bought one of these :

It's angled so that you can angle the guitar back somewhat while still maintaining decent posture. My wife's gonna make a strap that will wrap around my leg and secure with velcro so it doesn't slip. Unlike the guy in the painting, I play steel string, not Classical/Flamenco.

Always open, like at a concert. Isn't it what most audiophiles strive for, reproducing the sound of a live concert in their homes. Who closes their eyes at a concert? I don't.
