(maybe a bit too loud or am I just getting old?)
Nah, it’s pretty stupid really. They wont be able to turn it up full and have no consequences. I think there is a health issue to be honest, as well as a structural issue with the building. It’s rare but people have experienced collapsed lungs at very high SPL so I have heard. It will also be fairly hard to breathe close to the soundsystem.
It wouldn’t be such an issue outside or in a big venue but although i’ve never been to Lakota I should imagine the main room only holds about 500 people so it can’t be that spacious.
