This bill discriminates against musicians as these db levels are to low to allow for live music and are impractical.

I agree, live music has been dying in Hawaii, especially Honolulu. Yet, to be honest, bars and nightclubs have to address the matter of soundproofing their establishment if they want music. Music is an emotional response to those creating and hearing. To those wanting to sleep, music becomes noise. Yes, kill the bill, but create a bill for soundproofing establishments.

musicians and merchant struggle enough to keep ahead with business without having unnecessarily legislation slap based on process and not on legitimate issues that can be worked out between the complaint he and merchant

Look at the photo facing right at The Bus. Hawaii's nightlife has been slowly dying throughout my time. We need to bring it back to life not kill it with this Bill

this is a city, it's filled with loud noises because they are sounds of living establishments.

I play the drums and its unfair to have to drum in a hot club because of noise ordinance. Clubs should be able to house live music without worrying about a noise ordinance. That's plain ridiculous.
