Where I live both are acceptable, but it depends on where you go
If you go to the "main beach" that's where you bring music. You show off your body, you listen to loud music, you cruise, etc...
But if you go the "locals beach", you show up looking like shit, keep your music down, and lots of people drink illegally but they do so low-key so while we all know they're doing it, nobody cares
To me, both are acceptable. It kind of sucks to think there is no place at the beach where you can party
But it also kind of sucks to think that there is no place at the beach where you can actually enjoy the ocean
SO we have both, you just need to know where to go
Someone blasted their playlist during a citywide fireworks display...why would I want to hear the explosions.
i've been in the band that plays during the fireworks, so to your point:
some people like music.
Music hater
There's a point where its way too obnoxious but I think it's fine as long as you find your own space. We all kind of silently claim spots in public spaces like the beach so just claim somewhere that is not too close to other people.
When I want the serenity I go off to the side where no one is. I don't think it's a big deal.
Hey you're welcome. I really enjoy my Bluetooth speaker at the beach. I play it just loud enough so when I'm sitting in my area in my little tent that I can hear it. If you're sitting close enough to me to be able to hear your music then you can fuck off.
It’s not like people bringing loud music to the beach is something new and different.
It's like people have none sense of why they go places.
A few years back, I did a lantern-lit tour of Mammoth Cave. I've done them in the past, and the ambiance, sound, smell, and flicker of firelight gives a very close yet mysterious feeling to the tour. This time though, as soon as we got into the cave, half the dipshits on the tour had their harsh white cellphone flashlights going everywhere, completely ruining the experience that they (and other people) had just fucking paid for. They really need to have a "movie theater" cellphone policy for those kinds of tours.
Music concert - everyone recording with their phone out.
Fireworks display - everyone recording with their phone out.
Bride comes down the aisle - everyone recording with their phone out.
It's just pointless. You ruin your own experience of the event because you're watching it on a screen instead of experiencing it directly, and you ruin other people's experience too.
And the wedding one I've seen far too many times.
What do you think the official wedding photographer is there for? When the bride and groom watch their wedding video back they want to see a room of their happy family and friends, but instead they'll get a video with rows of people staring at their own little rectangles and pointing them at the bride as she comes down the aisle.
Do yourself a favour and live in the moment sometimes, please.
Phone cameras are a godsend when I need to remember.
They are a curse when I want to remember.
I try to always make a point when recording to have the phone down as much as I can manage, so I can actually watch the event with my special eyes.
I went to see the leatherback sea turtles nesting a few years ago. They guide themselves by the light of the full moon and we were explicitly told not to use flash photography, as it disorients the turtles. As I’m sure will not surprise you, as the turtle ladies crawled up onto the beach, about 100 blinding flashes went off right in their faces.
Oh fuck that makes me mad. If I was running that operation, I'd have those people removed from the beach immediately. And probably fined, depending on the situation.
Or better yet, ban people from bringing cameras with flashes.
pretty hard when they're phones, but i get it. it's almost worth investing in some cheap digitals that you can destroy the flashes and give to everyone to take the photos and then email them their copies. and by almost i mean i wish i had the money i'd do it right now.
JOKE'S ON YOU ASSHOLE, I DON'T LISTEN TO THIS PLAYLIST ANYWHERE ELSE, BECAUSE I MADE IT JUST FOR THIS BEACH TRIP!
What if my music is a driving rhythm made to amplify ones enjoyment and celebration of being alive with others that's just what we've been doing in nature since before the United States showed up with a bunch of indoors people?
I mean, I've had to listen to some pretty shitty, country music before, definitely not something that fits my idea if music or a good time, but I just move, or swim out 100', or hike, and bam, nature sounds.
99.9% of the outdoors is not full of these people. You can just go there. If you can't just go there, maybe you have to put up with the other people who also can't go there.
If you are having a party with lots of people, fine by me, I'll avoid your group.
This is a much bigger problem when you are at a crowded location with strangers and you choose to play music. In that case, get some headphones.
How are you in any way "enjoying nature" in a manicured location next to a parking lot, that is packed with people? I dunno, 'I want to experience outside around tons of people but don't want the things that come with tons of people' is just a really weird niche to expect everyone else to conform to.
Yeah let's go for a semi-relaxing float down the river...oh look 2 dipshit trashy rednecks blasting their shitty country/hip-hop playlist over a cheap Walmart amp-sized speaker with the sound quality of a flip phone.
I swear the next time I go on one of those I need an air pistol that only shoots small darts. Fire one at the float carrying that speaker and just float on happy.
Chugs can of Bud Light. Tosses can in water.
Maybe bud light before they acknowledged a trans person existed. Now these cousin-fuckers exclusively drink Busch Light
Well, Budweiser and Busch are both owned by AB InBev. But I guess that's that level of awareness one can expect from bigots.
I have come to understand that there is a subset of people that have never spared a thought for anyone else. They probably have never even considered the fact that I don't want to listen to their stupid bullshit. The thought never crossed their mind, not even once.
Oh it's crossed my mind. It's also crossed my mind that public space does not belong to you in particular. If you want silence, go find it.
I play music so i don't run you over. Literally. It's so you get out of the way. Unfortunately all y'all "THE PUBLIC IS MINE AND MINE ALONE SHUT UP SHUT UP I CAN'T HEAR THE VEIN THROBBING IN MY FOREHEAD ANYMORE" types are so wrapped up in your own bullshit you don't think about shit like that.
Subset makes it sound like a small population. I get the sense it's a large slice whenever I brave the public domain
Mean while, I'm over here turning off my radio at stop signs and red-lights so no one takes more than a passing notice of my existence.

Thank you, I specifically crafted this 3 hour slam death metal and goregrind compilation for my 5am beach walk by the residential area.
If only. Instead you will hear songs about trucky-trucks, beer, and fishing sung in only the most generic pandering tones with influences of whatever music is currently popular at the time.
I could sing in mandarin, you'd still know I'm panderiiiiin'

I wonder if there's a database of ways to get a bluetooth speaker to crash with a few malformed requests...
You don't need a database of exploits, just broadcast a lot of noise at* 2.4 ghz.

Some people get to go to the beach all the time and enjoy having fun there and being social. Not quietly listening to the waves. You want a public beach to be your way, go buy a private beach.
Nobody wants to listen to your shitty music.
walk ten feet. the ocean is loud. i can tell you've never been
I don't care that you don't.
- FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER
Girl have you seen my thoughts? I have 3 prefrontal cortex handicaps, it's chaos up there.
