The question on the floor is "What do people do who don't have live music in their lives?"

I can suggest one answer. Read a few Nero Wolfe detective novels by Rex Stout and you'll note that Nero Wolfe seems to have no music in his life whatever. No record player, no concerts, no instruments. His assistant Archie goes dancing at night clubs with Lily Rowan, but that may be merely to please Lily.

So what do they do instead?

eat, go to baseball games, raise orchids, solve murders, occasionally fight thugs, drink beer, ogle dames
