We recently attended the Fleetwood Mac tribute show and the sound system was horrible. Could not understand any of the lyrics being sung. I do not know if it was the group that was that bad or if the system in the theatre needs replacing. Spoke to several other attendees around us and all agreed that it stunk.
Before purchasing any more tickets I would like to find out if it was group issue or Villages issue and how this problem can be resolved.

About ever time I attended music event it was turned up too loud which sometimes makes the singing hard to hear and frequency vibrations bad.

We haven't been to the Savannah Center since before Covid began, but we always thought the instrumental music was so loud it was hard to understand the lyrics/words.

I complained about a month ago about 2 shows we went to where the sound was so loud you couldn't understand any of the words but the last three shows we've gone to the sound was great again. I guess it depends on who is on the sound board. We noticed if 3 people are on the sound board (band brings their own person??) it's terrible. If 1 or 2 people on board, it's great. We saw The Grass Roots, Rocketman and Hollywood nights in the last 2 weeks and they were great.

Some bands bring in their own sound person. Savannah Center upgraded their sound system about 4 years ago. My wife always complains that it is too loud. I tell her that rock-n-roll is supposed to be loud.

Had the same problem at the Sharon, never went back, that was the Charlies Daniels band, the sound was so loud you could hear the speakers distorting.

The sound at Brownwood is always too loud also. Theaters all over the nation are too loud. I think sound engineers are deaf. I was listening to Stevie Nicks sing and she is hard to understand sometimes also.

I do not do counseling. Wife always complains? What?

We went to the Styx tribute band at Savannah in August last year and I didn't have any issues, that's with my hearing aides.... we were on the second row in Mezzanine

My guess is that its the sound engineer, and I would guess each band has their own.

We just saw the Beach Boys at the Sharon in March and that was fine. I could hear every word and the music was loud, we were main floor row 6 or F
