Ahh yes... there is another reason not to go. Catch a respiratory illness from someone that is inconsiderate and comes to a concert in ill health... either because of the noise, possibility of infection... or the appearance of communicability.
Anyone else prefer listening to their system more than a concert?
I know I do. It seems like most people on this forum don't feel that way. That's OK. To each his own.
For me, I like being able to control the volume. I like choosing what song I want to hear. I like not being in a crowd. I like hearing the music without any distracting sounds from others. I like the privacy. I like the convenience. I think my system sounds wonderful. I'm a happy camper.
Just my opinion. Not trying to change anyone else's mind.
Enjoy the music! Whichever way pleases you.

coincidentally, I attended an Andrea Bocelli concert last night. Although the venue was large I had good seats and the acoustics were pretty good. he performed with our local Philharmonic which was an added bonus.The experience of seeing this supremely talented man perform live exceeded listening at home. In the last few months I’ve seen Rosanne Cash and Chris Isaak perform in small venues with great acoustics and the ticket was well worth the price. for the most part, however, I would rather be listening to my system. Certainly, I’m done with the big rock concerts in big venues. Rude crowds, terrible sound and deafening volume. No longer for me. the sound is almost always better listening to my system but I enjoy the experience of a live show four or five times a year, usually in a small venue. Aside from superior sound quality, a big advantage of listening at home is that no one wakes me up when I fall asleep |
@nitrobob My favorite discs are the ones that are the best recorded.

tomcarr OPThat's a bummer. I'm the same. Surprised at some of the best bands live recordings are so inferior |
