[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I live a few blocks away and couldn't hear it much from my house, but over on Kingman and Heritage Islands (I guess from how the stage and speakers were positioned?), it was horrifically loud and you could feel the base reverbating really strong. I felt bad for the wildlife. [/quote] What wildlife? Rats? Pigeons? Trash pandas? That’s not wildlife. [/quote] On Kingman and Heritage islands and nearby? Deer (not on island, but along anacostia trail, have seen right by entrance), On and near island... Bald eagles Beavers Groundhogs Great blue heron Osprey Turtles Ducks Tree sparrows Woodpeckers Cardinals Blue birds Warblers Sandpipers Bullfrogs Skinks Hawks Snakes Should we get into the fish? Pull your head out of your *ss next time, k, thanks [/quote] Those are all basically trash animals that can literally live anywhere. That’s not wildlife. [/quote] I agree that the concert's risk to wildlife is overstated, but if you believe that many of those species "can live anywhere" and aren't threatened by noise pollution you really are talking out of your @ss. Warblers in particular are currently migrating through DC, are highly vulnerable to noise pollution, and are, in many cases, rare or endangered (like the Northern parula or the pine warbler).
