Zellner:
This reminds me of some recent shows at Yoshi's (Branford Marsalis, 
Don Byron), where a black guy in the back of the audience made some 
enthusiastic exclamations during the music, immediately followed by 
some white folks chuckling and few others shushing him.

Yeah, the last thing you want is for someone to feel something when you
play music...moved to the point of making sounds...that is dangerous.
