Don't get me wrong, I greatly appreciate the fact that you're at least putting effort into sincerely arguing your points. It's an argument I've enjoyed having. It's just that your points are wrong and your reasons for thinking they're right are stupid.

Actually the last one I went to was rather peaceful.  There was a truce reached over a few lagers.

They called it the Harp's Accord.

Well, speaking as one with a Liszt to classical music, any orchestra that can't Handel Messiah should go Bach to basics.

True, true.  It's no good to be Haydn on the Messiah.

And the advertisements are annoying as hell.

They need to ease Orff on the Billings.

Perhaps they had a big Bassoon payment to make.

I think they're just blowing their own horn.

And don't get me started on the woodwind section.  I'm remembering in particular an orchestra I saw in Buffalo, New York.  The flautists were all acting like they were hot shit.  But as long as I've been into the orchestra scene I've never really dug fluties.
