Default Loud Music

I have read and heard all these comments about music too loud, and people cant talk while the band is playing and etc etc etc. First off I am a musician and have given up on playing anymore these days because first off, the people complaining of the music and that because I hear people saying when bands are playing things like Doobie Brothers, Bob Seger, Rolling Stones, classic rock music, that they are playing heavy metal and they are way too loud. First things first, classic rock is not heavy metal, and really people classic rock is just music from the sixties and seventies and even the eighties now, just because your past 60 does not mean you just got to listen to oldies. Most of the classic rockers are still around and still touring, and if you go to a concert, alot of them wear ear plugs and you can too. You can only lower your amp so much and the drummer does not always use brushes. Also another thing too that bothers me as a musician or a patron visiting a local establishment with live music, think people it is LIVE MUSIC, if you cant talk and hold a conversation you should go somewhere you can do that, we musicians are working hard up there on stage and one thing that bothers me the most is when they say your too loud and we cant talk, please either put ear plugs on, or find a place that does not have live music. Even tho I live here I am one that likes live rock music, 60's, 70's, 80's 90's and even new stuff, and the blues, and country. Since it seems like people dont want it here, just oldies I just go to somewhere where it is appreciated by all ages, and not just by some people who just got to complain about everything.
