Paid parking at UC and Groovin the Moo

It was quite a treat whilst at the dog park. Very clear music and good songs!

ummmm, te concept of parking across the road somewhere and walking in for a few minutes a bit obscure for you?

Seeing as I could hear Groovin the Moo at my place in West Belconnen, I doubt you would have got any quiet library time anyway.

Couldn’t hear a thing in Giralang.

Neither in Kaleen, right near Baldwin drive too.

I’m guessing the fact that we’re elevated relative to UC matters more than the distance.

I think more than the elevation, is that the stages and speakers were pointing more or less directly West. You were basically to the side of the speakers, whereas a lot of other suburbs, even 9 or 10km away, could hear it because the sound was projected directly towards them.

Heard it in Macgregor last night too. I honestly thought it was someone playing loud music on my street. If it weren’t for so many other people around my area also hearing it, I’d never have believed the sound could have traveled so far!

Interesting. This was the first time I couldn’t hear it from my part of Bruce. The patrons however – they made their presence known when wandering the streets

And yet not many metres from the stage, during The Presets especially, I was thinking the music could have been louder.

Some friends and I could hear it very clearly from our respective homes in Hawker, Page, Holt and Macgregor. So much so that I googled the playlist, found out who was scheduled to play at the time, youtubed their music and could match the song I was hearing with what I found on my computer. The music was very, very clear and loud. Who needs tickets when you can have a party with the funkiest music provided for free from 10km away!

The noise wasn’t as bad as previous years in the Bruce area but I do wish patrons would take their empty bottles home instead of leaving them lying in the road and gutters.

Uni students still use libraries?
