Are boat builders tone deaf?

[AntarcticPilot]

There is nothing wrong with music, but I am not sure I like what other people like played from 2 NM away (distance by AIS).

Sadly, I did not bring my bagpipes on the trip. You do like the sound of a good pibroch?

I think the weirdest thing I can recall is walking up the main street in Wareham and hearing the pipe being played. Turned out that the person playing them was a colleague!

In Greece, when there is plenty of room, why do charter boats anchor near you and blast out rubbish pop?

Because the people on board are twats.

For reasons I won't go into, my daughter has to have some form of distraction available whenever she's awake. This is for a recognised medical condition.

Don't tell me - teenager??
No know cure, other than time.

I have a recognised medical condition: tinnitus.

One of the few things supposed to alleviate it is distracting noise.

Personally, I'd rather hear the tinnitus than the sort of music enjoyed by those twats who feel they have to share it with everyone else within earshot.

My daughter's condition is unrelated to hearing.

Not just teenagers. Years ago, anchored in Lochranza and an old boy was blasting out The White Cliffs of Dover.

Blast back some AC/DC "Long way to the top"

As if I would have that on board. Jeez. I like music. Preferably before 1750.

Well, they used some backpipes in that one, and they're scottish from Glasgow. So in a way, it's traditional, regional scottish music.

Is that Glasgow in Australia?

I am sorry to hear that your daughter has a condition that causes problems for her, and I hope nobody would object to her doing whatever is necessary to alleviate it; I certainly wouldn't.

But my concern here is with those who, without any excuse, and without the slightest consideration for others or simply to show off, play loud music.

There's no need for it, and no excusing it.

Glasgow in Scotland. That's where they're from.

Didn't know of the Scottie connection. Not sure I'll bother to remember it.

That must be where the "singer" learned how to scream so much & why he was exported with a load of convicts to a land far from here

I am thunderstruck

So much hatred for AC/DC around here. tsk tsk tsk

Never think of them. Hatred doesn't come into it. Does the guitarist still wear shorts?

 

[johnalison]

But you think I do that. Hm. Interesting.

The OP mentioned cockpit speakers, which, er, speaks for itself.

You constantly try to prove a point how you DON'T know or think about that band, and how little you care. I mean, you don't have to. Me mentioning acdc was a joke anyway, but man do you have a point to prove. Virtue signalling.

You sound like the type who gets annoyed when children laugh and play near them in the park where they sit to enjoy the peace and quiet of the green.

Cockpit speakers don't really say it's to llblast music stupidly loud. You know that thing called volume control?

Anyway. I leave you to it then. Getting unpleasant in here.

Glad OP solved his speaker problem though.
