Nah. The walls are made of cardboard. I can clearly hear my neighbours,
so there's little reason to suppose they can't hear me.

There are worse fates in life ;)
Presuming, of course, that your head provided more space for them than
just their 1983 hit.
This one, for instance, smells like fun:

Sorry but after listening to that and about 20 minuets of you tube.
Colour me hard to please. I would rather listen to mouth music or the
Irish lilting, even.

You just don't know good sound when you hear it. Not that I'd have
expected anything else -- after all, your people's idea of music is to
stick wooden tubes into goatskin bags and puff them up until they whine
and wail :-P

J/K -- I think the gaelic musical tradition is among the most
fascinating in all of Europe... if they only ditched the pipes, that is ;)

True with only one or two notable exceptions. Music became either
trivial or disharmonic after the romantic period.

In response (if I were to sink so low) all I can say is Volkstümliche
Musik.

But the pipes were designed for peoples like you. To let you know that
we were coming and to give you time to hide. :-P

I strongly disagree; there's plenty contemporary (read: 20th century and
later) non-trivial harmonic music to find. As for the trivial or
disharmonic, I guess it has always existed; it's just that it is long
forgotten as far as romantic and pre-romantic times are concerned.

That's Bavarian, not German :-P
Besides, at least they use equipment that /could/ be employed to produce
sound remotely worthy of being called music.
(I'm glad you didn't mention Karlheinz Stockhausen though. /That/ was
true German crime against music, against which even your pipes pale in
comparison.)

Well it is all a matter of personal opinion, isn't it.
I like Bach and can't stand Mahler, my wife feels the opposite. It is
true that most people I know can't stand the sounds of the pipes. But
their blood doesn't rise with it. Mine does, my gain. I don't like pop,
my loss.
BTW Is Bavaria not part of Germany or is that some parochial prejudiced
creeping in?

Not part of Germany, no.
Part of our Federal Republic, yes. Sneaked their way in, somehow. Still
have their own consitution, which they've just put on hold for as long
as they happen to claim that Bavaria be part of the Federal Republic of
Germany.
Entirely different culture. Heck, they don't even drink beer. Entirely
different language, too. They've tried to introduce German, but they
just can't seem to learn it. Austrians in disguise, is what they are.
The front yard of the Balkans.
Don't get me started on Bavarians...
... What? Prejudiced? Me? Never!
(... shuffles off, ranting on...)
