Right on bob47. I strongly disagree with the "stop trying to change the world to fit into your narrow parameters. Ggggeeeezzzz."comment which is not representative of the vast majority of people I know.
Unless one is almost totally deaf, softer music is still very enjoyable but on the flip side of the coin, no one should be subjected to ear damaging, or painful sound levels. Worse the high sound pressure levels distort the music. Where is the pleasure of that?
You have hit on the most often expressed comment I run across in music venues (unless you are a rock or heavy metal concert goer). Especially at restaurants. Trying to talk to others at your table when you have to practically yell is very irritating. The music should be in the back ground and not be the dominating presence.
Maybe more of us should complain to venue management. It seems to me that hard of hearing people should get hearing aids and OK hearing folks should not have to carry cotton balls in their pockets.
Just sayin'
