Music in the parking lot grinds my gears

*this does not apply to end of season parking lots, let them speakers knock *

anyone else sick of mf's blasting their shitty music out their sprinter van for the world to hear as soon they pull up to the lot?

had this dude and his girl in a pimped out mercedes van pull up directly next to me in the parking lot blasting some shitty techno reggae remix song, as im putting my boots/gear on, sitting on the tailgate of my whip. @9am

they hopped out in full acrteryx kits and started gearing up, shitty music still blasting.

i asked them politely to turn it off, and was met with the response of "no, its a free country man" ... smh.... told him that he and his girl are kooks, then walked to the hill.

this has been a re occurring thing for me at my local, and while i hate rules and regulation 99% of the time, i would seriously enjoy a policy of no loud music in the lot. or at least the expectation that people have the common decency to turn it down when asked nicely. the fact of the matter is, i shouldnt have to ask. You should have enough social awareness and courtesy to realize that you look like a fucking knob. i dont pull up blaring westsidegunn in the lot for a reason, i understand that we all have different music tastes and not everyone wants to listen to mine, especially in a natural environment like a ski hill, where people go to escape the bs of everyday modern life.

am i the asshole, or does anyone else feel the same way?

wireless bluetooth speakers are the bane of my existence.

hope we can all agree that loud music on the hill/chair is a no no, but how do yall feel about parking lots?

there is a level that is acceptable and a level that is not. if people can hear it across the lot it's too loud.

Never been a speaker kid - that said, my controversial take is that parking lot/on-mountain/backpack/etc. speakers are fine if the user takes requests from the public

For me personally, only music that I’d be fine that people blast would be 70s rock. Preferably a prog song, but whatevs. I don’t get why some people listen to that goofy techy stuff. Weird. For the most part, music in the morning also annoys me since I wanna here some level of quiet since it is the morning and too early for blasting.

I've seen the same guy at Snowbird and Brighton that skis around with an amp on his back while playing the electric guitar. He is the only person for which it is acceptable to be playing music while he skis.

Guys a legend. He's a b-town local. He actually makes guitars out of skis and sells them I think.

I love wutang but the way they make their music is really a hit or miss for me. I'll either love the song or absolutely despise it and theirs no in between

I’m not one to blast music in the lot, but I don’t really agree with this at all. When I’m getting ready to ski I want people to be awake and stoked for the day. Nap time is over once you hit the lot. Any music is better than no music for me.

Not a fan of speakers on the mountain in general. Just wear headphones and have a vc with your friends if you all want to listen to music together

I think anything this couple did would upset me, just pulling up and parking next to me. let alone playing remix songs.

The amount of times I've heard "We mash up the place, turn up the bass, and make them all have fun
A-we a blaze the fire, make it bun dem" at 8:30AM in the parking lot is astounding.

Usually if the music is shit ill tell them to turn it off. Otherwise its kind of an unwritten rule to let that shit slide

There was a lifted truck at Bogus blasting metal. Entire lower lot could not only hear it, but struggle to talk over it. Would love to know how much was spent on that stereo cause honestly it was an impressive performance.

Put your boots on in the lodge like an adult. Also, if there are people in the lot when you get there, you slept in too late.

Ha ha! 4,500+ tunes on my flip! No streaming here.

There's room for way more, but alas, I am lazy.
