Sorry but the Cassidy performance during the roll call is annoying

1. If he's the one playing the music I'm loving it!

[JohnSJ]

2. Each to our own.

[berniesandersmittens]

4. Me too

[Srkdqltr]

23. Lose Yourself for Michigan !! How cool.

3. the roll call is annoying nt

[JohnSJ]

5. Doesn't help with the background music in my opinion.

[Mark.b2]

24. I'm with you on the roll call...

just cast the votes and be on with it. I understand it’s supposed to be memorable, joyous, etc. I’m not feeling the genuity. Many speeches are silly. I would much rather hear speeches.

Granted, I come to this with an aniti-convention bias. The conventions are boring. As someone with a high taste for all things political, there are two events I dont care for—the State of the Union address and the nominating conventions.

I didnt hear anyone at the office discussing the RNC a couple weeks ago. I picked up COVID and have been traveling so far this week, so I’ve not been able to hear if folks this week to see if there is more engagement with the DNC. Hopefully so, since it has been a much more interesting last three weeks for Democrats!

6. The music is too loud, maybe because of the way the hall is miked.

And I don't especially like the music but I'm an old fogey.

[JohnSJ]

7. Yup

[SocialDemocrat61]

8. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion

But I think it’s a great way to keep young people engaged.

[Tribetime]

15. Yes all that matters is to get the most people out Nov 5

And I believe the younger voters will make a huge difference

[cyndensco]

9. I LOVE IT!!

[mzmolly]

46. I loved every minute

of it, and I'm no spring chicken.

[Srkdqltr]

10. People there are pumped up. They dont seem to mind. Looks like fun.

These things have always been loud and enthusiastic.

[Ocelot II]

12. It's probably a lot of fun to be there; it's just kind of irritating to have to listen

to music that's too loud and not very good on top of all the yelling.

[Srkdqltr]

16. Im sitting here chair dancing. I hear them just fine.

If I remember correctly. I've watched these things off and on since the 60's and they are always noisy and shoutie.

[Ocelot II]

19. I've always enjoyed the roll calls. I'm just not crazy about the music this time around.

OTOH if I were there I'd probably be having a blast.

[nolabear]

11. I'm having a blast. Each state gets a song and a celebration.

I love it.

[badhair77]

13. I'm loving it.

It’s building enthusiasm in the hall. It will soon be over and on to quieter speeches.

[rsdsharp]

14. I agree. Too loud, no concept of segues, and how does Celebrate relate to Iowa?

Kansas just said they couldn’t hear. Brilliant idea.

[Jirel]

17. Why down on the best thing to happen to the convention?

It doesn’t matter if it’s not YOUR style. It is driving the vibe and the excitement, not creating a snooze fest like most roll calls. Let’s understand that driving the energy is what is wanted and needed THERE, it’s keeping remote viewers tuned in, it’s keeping the ratings up at a time they normally dive, AND IT’S GOING TO DESTROY DonOld’s MINIATURE MIND.

39. Kill-joying/off-my-lawning has been a DU specialty since I joined here in mid 2018. Hardly surprising to see it again.

I am sure it went on well before that.

It is only going to get worse I fear as there are very few younger people joining.

[Ishoutandscream2]

18. This ol fart is right there with you

A bit embarrassing.

[vanlassie]

33. Suggestion. Pay attention to the faces

of the happy people in the hall! People of all ages!

[Srkdqltr]

20. Sure finding the old poos tonight. LOL. LOL

[Tribetime]

22. Guilty it gives me a headache but most people love it

So I'm all for it

[beaglelover]

21. Completely disagree! They are appealing to the younger voters and it's awesome!

[dem4decades]

25. I'm old, and I like the music, maybe a bit loud but Springsteen for NJ, how can you go wrong.

[TomSlick]

30. I like the music but the DJ can put a sock in it.

[cilla4progress]

26. Loving the enthusiasm and joy!

Yes, its a little corny - that's the idea!!

[consider_this]

27. C'mon, it's fun and...

seems like they are playing artists from each state. COOL!

[dchill]

28. Loosen up! 😄

[rockbluff botanist]

29. Love love love the energy

Everyone is so engaged and excited. Very creative and fresh.

[JohnSJ]

36. Agreed about the energy.

[grammiepammie]

31. Roll call

I think it is great and I am old. It is a lot of fun to see everyone so happy.

[DET]

32. I Like It

Too loud, but it’s certainly generating enthusiasm. What I didn’t like was the opening acts - awful.

[snowybirdie]

34. Im an old fart

But loving it! 😁

[Silent Type]

35. Think it's OK. Could have done without Sweet Home Alabama. Liked Wendell Pierce.

[Celerity]

37. I think it is great!

[JohnSJ]

38. He has toned it down, much better now, at least I can hear the delegates

[Betty Boom]

40. Nope

I love it

[onenote]

41. This old fogey thinks it's great.

[Sogo]

42. I totally agree!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[iemanja]

43. I like it too.

Schumer is kind of a let down though.

[electric_blue68]

44. I enjoyed it. It was Fun. 🎉

[yardwork]

45. I loved it. The whole thing was great.

Fun music, joyful people - it was awesome.
