Okay, so apparently I'm a little behind the astronomical times. Thanks to a friend of mine on twitter I found out that you can actually listen to meteor showers. Using the Air Force Space Surveillance Radar in Texas you can hear meteors from the Quadrantid meteor shower. Anyone interested can listen at Space Weather Radio.
As the earth passes through the debris field of the remains of the extinct comet 2003 EH1 the little dust granules and tiny chunks enter the earth's atmosphere and we see them as the Quadrantid meteor shower.
