Feels good to opt out, doesn't it? I did that last week on another front. Sometimes it's good to play in a different sandbox. But consider this-- it might be better on a different night, after your pals play loud a couple of times. I hope you left them, at least, on good terms as you may want to go back sometime. But clearly if it isn't working for you, you don't have to be there.

Hope you find a good place to play!
