- Is the loud music we’re hearing at 6:30 p.m. Sunday near State and Mission from the concert at Earl Warren ?
- Who is playing insanely loud music on the Westside?
- Music from Oak Park or Earl Warren? It’s incredibly loud. This is late afternoon on Sunday, Mar. 1
This music was so loud as to beggar belief. It seemed to be coming from Earl Warren which is at least 3 miles from my home but we wondered if it was from the park. Anyone subject to that at close range would have hearing damage for sure. At least it shut down after a sort period.
Yes, it was an outdoor event and no it wasn’t that loud. Hearing damage? LOL Ok…whatever. It was during the day time. The 101 makes more noise than that did.
Saw someone on Nextdoor who admitted living over 2.5 miles away having a full meltdown and calling the cops and CHP and urging others to do so.
DAY. TIME. It’s ambient noise unless you’re sitting right there. The people in this town who expect total silence at all hours of the day crack me up. “Oh crap! I hear some noise in the distance during the day!”
FFS folks. Give it a rest or move to a farm somewhere. Cities have sounds, even on weekends.
Disturbing the peace is disturbing the peace. It has a legal definition.
So, any noise that bothers you is now illegal? Sorry, that’s not how it works.
We’re three blocks south of The Old Mission and we had to close our windows due to the music. We aren’t a bunch of querulous, pearl-clutchers. We value our peace and quiet. We’d rather hear birdsong and be able to enjoy sitting outdoors without being bombarded with hours and hours of noise. That music was BLASTING. And it went on for hours, right up until 8:00 p.m. If it had been a private house party raging loud like that, it would have been shut down tout de suite. There’s absolutely no need whatsoever to have the sound system set up so that 1,000s of households are forced to listen to “your” music. And I don’t care what kind of music it is. I am stupified as to how anyone can justify, much less defend such noise pollution.
It’s not “your” music, it’s professional musicians paid to perform at Earl Warren. There is no possible way it was so loud, that far away that you could not enjoy your day. Due to atmospheric conditions, sound can travel a long way sometimes, but the reports I was hearing from folks living where you do were clearly exaggerated and out of pure annoyance because of what type of music it was. Let’s not pretend we don’t know. It happens once a year and every time it’s the same people griping that they had to hear some bass and drums at a distance.
Funny thing is, no one from Samarkand was complaining. So again, sorry not sorry if I’m not gushing with sympathy for those who heard muffled music miles away during a warm and sunny Sunday where they could have gone and done whatever they wanted to still enjoy the day.
Heck, maybe you all should have met up down town to eat some delicious street tacos!
