<<<maybe people just won't pay any attention unless the dB's generated from the PA can exceed the ones from their all-important conversations.>> Pete Townshend once said that was why The Who were so loud early on in their career, because he wanted the band to be what everyone was focused on without any of the inane behaviour human beings engage in when they go anywhere there's a bar. I can never comprehend people who spend upwards of 50 bucks (or more) to go to a concert, then spend the entire show basically ignoring the band and carrying on a conversation. I mean, you can do to any bar in the world and do that, and save yourself the price of the concert ticket. I remember a few years ago, when I saw Roy Harper in concert, after each of the first two or three songs, he turned his attention to someone sitting in the front, saying things like "You know I can tell you what you've been talking about during each song", etc. Finally, I think it was the third or fourth song (a very quiet ballad), he stopped IN THE MIDDLE OF THE SONG, and basically said something like "Would you please either stop talking or go to the back of the room!!!", in a very pissed off tone of voice. Hey, he TRIED being polite about it, about ya know how Americans are. :-P ===== May you never thirst!
