Well put, Bob. I feel that way about horns, too. I enjoy sitting close in a small jazz bar and hearing and feeling the honk.
I recall being in tiny bars in NO and the air pressure from the second line bands would push you around in the room. Honest.
Kind of felt that way trying to get into the vestibule to see Michelangelo's stairs at San Lorenzo in Firenze. But it was the marble blowing me away.
