Yet another simple situation that the AFL just cannot get right!

But no, I don't think it's too loud. I like the music before hand. The Ads are annoying, but ads are everywhere, get used to it, they aren't going away.
If the Foo Fighters are the best band ever then Tony Delaney was bloody Leigh Matthews.

Ludicrous.
Dave Grohl. End of story.
Who are these Poo Fighters you speak of :?
Get down to your local CD shop and pick up a copy of this, your mind will be blown.

For those posters who are more aged, it's also available in vinyl.
Hey Gill if I wanna hear a drummer play distorted guitar to patch over his inadequacies I'll do it in the privacy of my own garage thanks.

Same goes for screaming to patch over vocal hopelessness.

:)

Funny how Grohl never gets chastised for running with Nirvana's legacy but Courtney Love does... Fighters live when last here was so horribly mundane - not to mention boringly loud - I was actually laughing.

I'm just glad the tix were freebies.

All very NRL for mine...

But hey, some people like Bieber, some people like Celtic folk, some people like Delta Goodrem...

Takes all kinds.

At least the AFL didn’t go with ABBA’s Bang-A-Boomerang for the Indigenous Round :shock:

Whilst I dont really have a problem with the volume of the announcements/ads, I do have a problem with the volume of the team songs.

It seems that the volume is lower for the songs compared to the ads, and that aint right, I want the songs up loud to really help pump up the crowd, especially when the crowd is smaller, help to build the atmosphere.

Of course it all depends on where you are situated at the time, the back few rows and standing room on level 1 is alot less audible than level 3.

It's simply all part of the plot to take for granted the converted in favour of appealing to new markets.

Growth = prosperity.

Just how it is.

It's probabaly why we have GC Suns instead of GC Kangaroos and why we have GWS instead of Tasmania.

I find the noise coming from the speakers interrupts conversations. I hate it!
