A member staying at Cedar City RV Park, a section of the Best Western in Cedar City, Utah, complained that the live music on site sounded more like noise than music and was too loud for their taste. Another member asked if it was karaoke, but the original poster said it was not and noted that people were still listening to it.

Members then shifted into sharing personal music preferences. Several said they prefer older styles such as Mitch Miller, barbershop quartets, crooners, big band...

Amp-power is a good way to conceal lack of ability.

As someone who has been playing stringed instruments for a very long time (60+ years) and the owner of a fair number of amps I feel just the opposite. Amplification makes your mistakes stand out. Little things that nobody would even notice on an acoustic guitar become glaring through an amp. Especially string squeaks.
 
I suppose no one is interested in listing to real music any more. What do I consider "real music" ... how about Mitch Miller and the men's quire he conducted. Now that is singing! Or, the old fashioned barber shop quartets. Yes, I'm showing my age. I can't stand the "stuff" they call "music" today!
My dad really liked Mitch Miller. He and Mom also loved the Old Big Band orchestras - Dorsey, Miller, Goodman, Basie, and the like. I grew with all of that, and still have many of their old 78s. Don't play them, anymore. Have them all transferred to Digital and CDs.

You're right of course, I was thinking about singing ability. High music volume can conceal a weak voice. Hard rock bands come to mind.
 
Safe travels and all the best.
My list of favorites starts with Tommy James and the Shondells, The Supremes, Jan and Dean, Beach Boys, Elton John and goes thru the Beatles, Stones. Lovin Spoonful, Lynrd Skinnrd, Led Zepplin, Cream, Traffic, The Who, Crosby Stills Nash and Young, Grateful Dead, Jefferson Airplane thru Aerosmith, Def Leppard, Heart, Joan Jett, Bon Jovi etc.
Its all good!! Just not when I'm trying to get to sleep! :oops:
Safe travels and all the best.
