Years ago the San Diego Zoo held night concerts at the Wild Animal Park. They were held on a grassy amphitheater and you could hear the animals and birds from time to time.
We saw Don McClean one night. Everything was normal during the concert; soft conversation, nature sounds, glasses clinking. Then he started singing Starry Starry Night, and there was not a single extraneous sound. Not even the animals made a sound. It was so dark and quiet it was spooky.
It was not the greatest live performance I've ever seen, but I still get chills thinking about it.
