I would like to have the music turned down when matches are playing.
Two reasons for this:
- Its very hard for friends, family members, and other teams to talk to each other with music blasting. Nothing like yelling "what!" ten times when the person is just trying to tell you to move over. 
- Also it’s very hard to really concentrate on a match with the music. When you are really trying to study a robot the last thing you want is to hear a song that you absolute loath and see people dancing to it.

Makes sense to me too. They usually have a good choice in music but often its too loud to hear anouncements. It also makes it very hard to talk while driving:
"The goals are coming!"
"What about the plumbing?"
Even worse was at the LA regional where a team brought their huge drum set. Everytime any robot changed direction the drums were pounding. I lost my voice by the end of the first day shouting over them. Sorry if anyone who reads this is on that team but it was just really loud for everyone. Any other sounds besides the drums were nonexistant. I'd just like to be able to talk to someone without ruining my vocal cords.
