The poor selection of demo music in the majority of the rooms at audio shows has always been a sore point with me and my circle of associates. There are many pleasant exceptions, but for the most part, the music in play is something I’d never sit through at a friend’s house. Apart from heavy metal and demo music, I can sit through most anything. There are both innocent and nefarious reasons for playing such simple music, and the show attendee needs to be especially aware of the nefarious reasons.
