I did not have to leave my house to hear live music for Cinco de Mayo. A band featuring a very loud tuba is playing in my neighbor's yard.

I don't play my system that loudly, but by comparison, Sky's "Tuba Smarties" sounds quite close.

I'm listening to the air conditioning vent in my office churn out "white" noise (maybe pinkish).
