Maybe I'm truly turning into a grumpy old man, but tell me if I'm wrong here...
Last week I went to see Hall & Oates in concert with my girlfriend ( I know, I rock hard!) There was a couple sitting next to us during the show that basically had loud running conversations throughout the entire show. I'm not talking about random comments, I'm talking full blown discussions about their weekend plans or some stupid party they were at last weekend that lasted the entirety of each song. And the guy in this couple had a deep, loud voice that he made no attempt to muffle while he talked.
After sitting through this for the entire opening act and half of the main show, I finally turned to them and said calmly " can you please keep the volume down on the talking?" The girl's response-"are you serious?" Incredible.
I'm not trying to be a talk Nazi or anything and I don't expect absolute silence, but if you really just want to have an extended conversation with music in the background, go to a fucking Starbucks!
Is it me?
