The Physics of Hair Nation

I am studying physics tonight--one of the 4 classes remaining in my degree program--and listening to Hair Nation on Sirius Internet radio, through my iPod touch, plugged into my sound card, pumping through the surround sound speakers connected to the computer.

Besides trying to form a mental model of the physics of the effects of a hair band's head banging movements on their, er, hair, I am literally surrounded by the physics of sound.

Who said hair rock (or its other notable monikers) wasn't scientific?
