The bass was literally so loud it shook the floor.

So after 15 years of enjoying savannah, we won't go back and spend $80-100 on the off chance that we will be able to enjoy the performance.

Word is that over 100 folks left at intermission.
ear plugs

My question has nothing to do with the volume, but who in the world would pay 80.00 to see ABBA? They were boring 25 years ago. Some things never change!

I was wonder who security was chasing across the lobby, you run good.

It is a shame we let these young whippersnappers work in the Villages and they play loud music at a concert.

MTV used to say "If it's too loud, then you're too old". Anyway, $80+ for Abba impersonators?

Those ear plugs are not recommended for shooting. In fact many experts recommend that they be worn under ear muff type ear protection.

But I'm sure they'd be fine for concerts.

I couldn't agree more. I wouldn't pay $80.00 to see the real ones let alone a tribute band.

Saw James Talyor tribute last week at the Savannah Center and the sound was wonderful. Very clear and just loud enough. Now his music is not in the same loudness category as a hard rock band, but some of his songs are rock. He did have six musicians on stage : three guitars, drums, keyboard, and violin.
Was at the Moody Blues tribute a few months ago there and the sound was terrible. Fleetwood Mac tribute a few years ago, sound was good.
I just don't get it.
