[Dixielandjazz] Audience Noise During Concerts

[Dan Augustine]

     So what are we to conclude?  That's it is always perfectly fine 
-- nay, _required_ -- to talk, belch, fart, rustle papers, stomp 
feet, and make any kinds of noises you want, at any time, as loudly 
as you want, at any kind of concert, anywhere, until nobody can hear 
what's being played at all?  One may do this, then, because we've 
heard anecdotal reports that the composer doesn't mind, and other 
audience members don't mind?
     Here's another anecdotal report: Bullshit.
