Went to see a hard rock show here (Nightwish). The building is beautiful, the staff is very kind, the lighting rig is very nice with tons of conventional fixtures, and the venue has great acoustics.
That is where my praise ends. The sound system in the room is absolutely awful. I am a event sound and lights professional and it was clear throughout the night that this was not enough rig for the gig.
The subs were tubby and not clear and the tops were clearly being driven to their max and the room was not even all that loud. There were many times the vocals couldn't carry above the instrumentation.
I didn't take measurements, but, my best guess is it was hovering around 95dba where I was (not loud at all for a metal show).
