Andy Bolton & some others do that. Its something I just started trying recently. I dont know yet if I like it or not.

RDL - I stop going down when my hips stop going back. I definitely feel that in the hamstrings - they were still very sore yesterday, two days after doing that. I do them that way because it puts less stress on the lower back and more on the glutes & hamstrings.
My MP3 player is pretty cheap, but the speakers I have it plugged into are nice. I just set it to play all the music I have for a group. As Yugo says, sometimes I'll skip through some songs before attempting big lifts.

he has an iPod or whatever hooked up to speakers fwiw. I assume he just has a bunch of full albums on there and switches between them.
lol 2.5s on warmups
