90dB would be really cozy. I do not know of anyone in real life who complains of the music being too loud. Perhaps lots of people are deaf or their ears are plugged with earwax. Who knows? Nowadays in modern churches, people think that true worship means to have your emotions whipped up to a frenzied state. There's a worship leader I really dread who thinks it's his holy duty to stir up the congregation so as to ascend the emotional stairs and join him in his state of ecstatic euphoria. I have written his name down and will make a special effort to avoid that church when he is leading.The church i was previously at, I worked the lighting. Yes, it was a mega church. Before the new sanctuary, the main sound guy kept the db around 90. At the new sanctuary, the hired a new guy and he brought it up to around 100-102db. His philosophy was he was sorry you couldn't take it, but there were plenty of churches around. Only a small minority complained.
You're a funny guy. I wish I knew someone like you in real life. I think one of the reasons I am so discontented is that everyone else is so satisfied and fulfilled.I don't mind the modern music. I like it. I don't typically like the lyrics. I have been known to be reprimanded by the worship pastor for facebooking how many minutes went by before the first verse was read in sermon time. I guess publicizing 20 minutes went by is a bad thing?
