It depends on the environment for me, but lately I've become a big finger-snapper, much to the annoyance of my wife (and myself in fact).

I always listen while I"m driving, so usually I have the full beat going on my left foot, sometimes on my right foot, most of the time I'm slapping the steering wheel too, and I'm always singing whatever part of the song I can pull off that day.

I've been known to do every one of those except for snapping my fingers at various times (never mastered finger snapping.)

I pretty much do all of those, just picked up snapping recently.
I used to play air keyboard to
everything
, even things without any keyboard sounds in them, using the logic that if the keyboard was expensive enough it could replicate any sound anyway.

I swivel my head kind of trance-like sometimes, but I wouldn't call it "bobbing." So I picked the last option. When music slays me, it slays me. I connect it with spirit more than body. I'm not a dancer.

Well, depends on the music. For drum heavy tracks, I pretend I'm playing them. For keyboard driven songs, the same thing. For electronica-pop or heavy rhythm stuff, I tend to bob my head. An singing, of course.

Air bass is my thing. Electric bass, not double bass. Fingerpicked, thumb resting on the neck (my air bass is Fender Jazz).

+1. I've stopped doing it now but I used to play air bass when putting on a new pair of trousers.
Generally, I bob my head to music, leaving my limbs free for whatever.
All-out boogalooing is taboo, as paying other people's hospital bills is an expense I can do without.
I have been known to sway gently at classical concerts.

What about Marvin Gaye? His music is boring.
finger snaps for jazz. Drumming, guitar. Piano. Lip sync to the singer.

That may be your opinion, and you're perfectly entitled to voice it, but I think you'll find you're in a minority.
Of one.

Big deal. Like I said, his music is boring & everyone who likes Marvin Gaye will get the same answer from me. Majority/minority - I wouldn't give 2 figs. So there.

With that overwhelmingly negative, narcissistic, self absorbed attitude, why do you bother posting on this board? Seriously, during your time here you have not had a positive thing to say about, well,
anything
