It should be possible to elevate the sport to a point where a town hall is too small for the national championships surely! I'm not against heavy metal being used personally but I can see how it would be off-putting to members of the audience. Thing is, if the popularity of the sport grows substantially then the atmosphere provided by the crowd should be enough I think. If you need that extra boost then just stick some headphones in before you lift. Lots of other sports and athletes seem to manage this way (although I guess there aren't many that are similar to PLing). | ||
