Over the years I have come to appreciate and like the effects of up lighting in the music room and at shows.
I know some of you use it and am wondering what specific lights you use.
I bought some inexpensive one to see if I like it in my room and I do, but they are hideous in appearance.

I love these things. Cheap, and they provide user adjustable variable hues from your iPhone or iPad. If you have more than one, each one can be individually controlled for brightness, hue and color saturation.

I use these in white and red and get compliments at every show. The gooseneck is fully adjustable so you can position it however you want.

Lamps Plus has some decent ones. I use the following for uplight and downlight - basically they are portable spotlights that can be attached to walls or ceilings with command strips:
