The think with Rock or metal bands, it is all about the VOLUME of the sound of a live show. They want the audience to "feel" the music....literally. It is amazing to feel those drums in your chest, even if you are way in the back. I feel the same about a marching band, when they pass by, it is so loud and the power of volume and beat is meant to get people pumped up, excited. With classical or acoustic music, it is sort of the opposite. It is the intimacy and romance that is touching or engaging the audience, not decibel levels. For flamenco, it is also nice to have intimacy, but if there is a group with dancers, the guitar needs to be really loud IMO. Ricardo
