Look, is a concert really about hearing the person next to you scream, or about actually listening to the music? I get the appeal of a loud crowd—it’s electric, it’s communal. But think about what we’re losing. The artist spent months crafting every note, every subtle shift in volume. That gets buried under a wall of shouting and phone cameras. I’m not saying turn it into a library. Just a shift in focus. Let the applause come between songs. Let the music breathe during the performance. It’s not about killing fun—it’s about honoring the craft. We can still cheer, still connect, but with the music as the center, not background noise.
