Wrong.
Also my local big Halfrauds also insist in have a car radio at full blast filling the store with inane DJ prattle and awful music, which does not help you chose or buy the correct equipment for you car, at all.
Silly.”
they are all the same, they have "Advisers" who have been to medya school the same as the ones who "Design" the ads "No the public HAVE to have music, or it doesn't work"
Oh for the days when shops and ads were much quieter, one of the side jobs that I had, like many in the acting/entertainment profession was working in a department store, yes the Gents' Outfitting and yes I WAS Mr.Lucas who was always chasing the girls, but we had NO stupid "Music" anywhere in the store, nor did any other store or shop, life was much more pleasant, I doubt that I could last more than a few hours in one of the ghastly noise shops.
I belong to an organisation call Pipedown, dedicated to getting rid of "Music" from shops and restaurants pubs.
As these stupid, usually younger people who don't seem to be able to live without their ears be assaulted my "Music" via their various devises, I think that there is the basis of a good Science Fiction, Dr.Who type play there, a foreign/alien power takes over the world by inserting brain washing messages into those devises, it shouldn't be too difficult I don't think that those head-phone wearing idiots have got very big brains to.wash.
Right that's it, I'm off to a deep bunker before the flack arrives from those who like their "Music" piped direct into their brains.
