from time to time, mr happy's music therapy session suffers the slings & arrows noted above.

mr happy never omes dowwwn really hard on offenders, cos he wants to keep people enjoying themselves but will quietly inform the uninitiated, inept, or prima donnas in the error of their ways. up to now i've found this approach to be most effective.

if you're reasonable & avoiding angryness & confrontational attitude - most will acquiesce & play the game. of course there're sometimes loud drunks who've lost control of themselves- so the recourse here is that the landlady or bar staff chuck them out.
