I thought this was an interesting discussion over at TGP on musical synesthsia:

In a nut shell, it's when people see colors when they hear music. Made me instantly think of BJFe's and the color/naming schemes :pedallove

I used to get that quite often when seeing bands live. When Michael Houser :angel was alive and playing for Widespread Panic I would see/feel green and at the more intense parts I could taste green jolly ranchers! :mrgreen: Due to having kids we haven't seen much live music for the last 7 years and these days, with ticket prices the way they are, I might end up seeing red next time. :angry
