Garden Concerts - please make it stop

[Onemorefuck]

This semi light hearted thread is politely asking for consideration before holding your own street or garden concert.

I have put up with several renditions of Que Sera and Beautiful Sunday.

I would now like to enjoy the outdoors in peace.
The local Facebook groups are all very complimentary but I would just like my ears to stop bleeding.

It must be so annoying, fortunately our neighbours are very quiet, I wouldn’t dream of inflicting my music on them or DH for that matter and always wear my AirPods.

Oh, as I walk home from town along the river, sometimes a bloke is playing guitar and singing - I really enjoy it!

[Frownette]

It's behind a high stone wall of a cottage so I can't see anything.

I assume he enjoys getting some fresh air and playing in the garden. He's quite good though, it would be a different matter if someone was trilling away in a squeaky falsetto

Funny because I posted yesterday about an outdoor cinema in the garden and the consensus was that IABU to be horrified by the idea of neighbours blasting Grease at full volume every night.

I know they had a karaoke and quiz a few streets down and judging from videos in a group it went on til quite late.

Just fucking stop. People work shifts. People have kids. People are recovering from illness. Piss off with it

We’ve had bagpipes here tonight!

[Frownette]

I love bagpipes

My elderly neighbours used to sing along to old records (I'm sure it's vinyl) on a Sunday afternoon. The wife died a few years ago and the singing stopped. It was absolutely wonderful to hear the husband back in fine voice today.

Can we have a wee bit of tolerance, please? Unusual times which will soon be a memory.

I love bagpipes
I hate em but i live in the city you hear them endlessly

@ollybjolly Nowt wrong with that unless it’s late at night

[puffinandkoala]

Don't worry, rain is coming and everyone will go inside. No mowing lawns, no music and I can go out for a run in peace
