Concerts not safe enough?

 Summer 2009 I moved with my pets from Espoo to Savonlinna. In the next summer my ex-boyfriend visited Savonlinna with his parents who offered us all a visit to the opera at the St Olav castle. The ooera was not as fine as I remembered having seen as a child. At some point which I thought maybe half way through, there was some pause between scenes or somethkng of the kind, and there were some mist makkng machines quite at the back of the rows of seats. I heard some elderly person say you go we no longer can. I got scared since it seemed that the mist maybe was deadly. We walked away from there. There seemed to be some Orthodox priest at the side of the hall kind of helping people in such a situation. I geld my breath a long way as we walked out of the castle, tried to have some skills and even oray to succeed in it. And then we drove to home/hotels. But when I was it that day or some other evening looked at the people coming away from the ooera, there were maybe only 200 coming out while there were about 2 000 in the audience. And across time I have begun wondering, are concerts possible at all, are those safe? Often there is some smoke or fire, looking worse, also the atmisphere eorse than in Savonlinna. And I think someone remarjed somewhere "We have begun keeping the Eurovision Song Contest in space, since that is safer so, since that much the safety measures would have cost anyway." And traditionally some have said that those who have come back from space are all robots, so difficult the landing.

4th of November 2024   Do some think that music has a too high position in the society and in the world? My i.pression is that such is largely due to them not understanding why there us mostly music in tge radio. It is difficult to figure out other kinds of programs so much, and it is also not good for the geberal skill level and values in a society to somehow not feel music to be acceptable. But maybe radio stations ought to inform how big part of their programs us music. I cannot help but wonder did some not tell right which cultures' ways and values they support, abd so they are in another continent or simikarly in another kind of place than what they woukd like to live along, and so the mysic that suits them is there in the other kind of place which they vulturally prefer.
