I demoed gear for over 25 years and learned to just ask the client how loud they wanted it. I hear demo rooms cranked too high often and this can be really bad. If there is any sibilance higher volume levels will extenuate it. That's bad.
It's been a long time since I was at a show and witnessed this behavior and somehow I thought it had decreased but that was silly on my part. It can happen everywhere. I'm watching the J&H festival right now and they are playing Trombone Shorty live now (all the other acts were recorded and sounded better) and the sound board operator has butchered the sound several times in the twenty minutes they've played.
Humans, go figure...
