Music in the morning.........

How many of you musicians can't listen to music in the morning??

I'm writting this cause I work a split shift days ontop of my bands and between shifts I usualy try to take a little nap and today I was awoken by what I thought was a Jungle Tribe on the Warpath.......which just turned out to be my neighbor boldly showing his inabilitie to understand the basic graphic EQ.
Anyways for me music and the night go together.I cannot stomach any kind of music in the morning,I'm usually tired and cranky.Having to hear music or worse yet(talk radio)kinna interupts my Qusi-walking sleep mode I put on every morning.Evan when I gotta play a daytime show its kinna not the same.I'm not the only musician I've heard say this either about the element of night and music.
So how many of you guys feel the same way??

Like the old days when we played all night, listened to the radio on "low" on the way home. When We started teh car the next morning the radio volume was pegged and blasted us out of the car!

I can see it if your gigging all night and you just want a bit of piece and quiet in the morning. Though, I will say, a sunday morning coffee on a rainy day with a bit of Zep's "That's the Way" or Miles Davis' Kind of Blue or Emmylou Harris' Wrecking Ball can create a nice mood.

its a given in the band, when we get picked up in the morning for the mad dash to the airport, if the driver has any kind of radio on we almost in unison ask ' can you kill the radio please? '
