I certainly enjoy the experience of hearing music with others (provided
they aren't too noisy or distracting). Particularly if I have been pulled
to a concert by an obscure or unpopular piece of music, knowing that there
are likely to be other people in the room who feel the same way about it as
I do is reassuring. Here in Bath it is hard for me to go to a performance
without running into someone I know and comparing our views of it
afterwards.
