       Music & Sport

       Enjoyable couple of days at the Commonwealth Games over the
       weekend (the sport) but spoiled by the constant extremely loud
       music being played throughout all of the events.
       Trying to think back, when was it that "the powers that be"
       decided that people were incapable of enjoying a sporting event
       without music during every break in play? Rugby is the same
       although things have toned down a bit more over the last season
       at The Stoop.
       Obviously appealing to the masses rather than grumpy old B`s
       like me.

       It was noticeable at the Australia v England games, more than we
       get at games in England or Europe. I'm neutral on the matter
       generally. I can get the idea that especially in an extended
       break in play at a Rugby game or between heats in an Athletics
       Comp or such it can be a way to keep the crowd "involved" in the
       event, but I can also get fed up with things being overdone (see
       Sweet Caroline at *every* event, Delilah at Wales games, etc.)
