I think if you are a musician it's difficult to do anything technical when music is playing. Your mind naturally keys in and begins to analyze and your attention is split. It's unavoidable. Being a musician ruins you in a lot of ways.
Doing dishes or beating the dogs, sure. Put some music on. But not work. Work is meant to be concentrated on, in any event. If you're dicking about on your own time, that's different. But if I'm paying you to work I don't want you dreaming of the 8 bit music concert you're going to at the disco on Saturday night.
Did I say beating? I meant feeding, of course. Didn't I? And of course I have employees that do the dishes. I was just trying to relate to the common people.
