Full convos on the dance floor…
Context: I was at Basement in the front left near the staff door and end of the risers, and that night the decibel meter read 100 (normal speaking voices usually clock around 60 decibels)
I was listening back to a voice recording I took and I can clearly hear two convos happening, and on top of that, a bunch of murmuring from others nearby. Lots of factors at play here that could have contributed to my phone picking up those voices more, but it does beg the question… Is the dance floor the place to be having full convos?
Personally, I don’t mind casual comments and silly remarks—I think that’s totally fine and acceptable. I also do think parties and clubs are a social experience, so I want to say it’s nbd. But, yapping about how “so-and-so doesn’t show up as a friend” seems like a good convo for the back of the room where you’re not so close to the speakers (what’s the tea tho, I missed the lead up 😂). It was pretty distracting to me… and maybe that’s why I love solo raving haha.
