people with their music at the crag
|
It's seems to be a thing these days for people to bring their crappy little tinny sounding speakers to play their crappy music at the crag. |
|
I love music like everyone else, but come on. That trebly swill being loosed on my poor ears from your 4s ain't music. |
|
not to sound old and crusty... +1 and support. |
|
It bothers me when people play their music through the phone speakers when they are walking around in public. If I heard it at the crag I would probably errupt into flames. |
|
I would have to say, if you not have the nerve to say anything to them.don't wine about it on mp. |
|
Thank you for the advice Jacob. I'll try to remember that the next time I feel the urge to wine. |
|
Wine? |

Are you really correcting someone's spelling on mountain project. You tool. |

Sorry Darrell, I don't agree with your above statement at all. You should probably hit up crags that are known for less traffic, and you get annoyed in climbing gyms?! HA! Good luck. I would suggest building a woody at your house or a hangboard. |

Classless move for sure. It reminds me of the stereotypical 70s cheeseball waxing his bitchin' Camaro in the driveway while blasting Foreigner for the whole neighborhood. Then again, I'm just an aging douchebag that thinks that the hills should be a sanctuary. |

Noise pollution is pollution. It is bizarre that we even have to discuss it. That someone would think that music at a gym has anything to do with it is depressing. I have asked people to turn it off and its never been an issue, but it makes me tense to have to ask. I love music, just not what they are playing and never the weak noise you hear twenty five feet away. |
|
It's all part of the "look at me" narcissistic generation of social media obsessed twits coming up in this country. Nothing to be done but to get yourself some really good bag pipe music, better speakers for your phone, and strike first. |

I'm always a bit taken back by these threads. There doesn't have to be a catch all rule on these things. If you show up to a crag/boulder/whatever and no one is around and you fancy some tunes, there is no reason not to fire it up. If another party shows up and is oh-so-bothered by it, they ought to say something politely, and you ought to respond as you see fit. This is how things get taken care of. Same goes for tick marks, climbing on wet rock, off leash dogs, littering and...littering and...smoking the reefer. The history of rock climbing is written by guys who didnt give two shits what sniveling office-suits and uptight city-wads thought of their music and/or what they chose to do where. I bet the guys spouting off about this wouldn't be advocating retro-bolting for safety on classic Bachar routes. |

I never climb without my trusty Nipple® clipped on my harness. I couldn't send such hard routes with confidence without it blasting my sick tunes for all to hear. No more alone on the wall. Even Alex Honnold would grab one. Just clip it next to your ATC and Figure 8 on your harness, rope up, and proceed to free solo. |
