Simple Solution to Promenade Noise Pollution

A simple solution to the Santa Monica Promenade competing performers noise pollution problem: NO AMPLIFIERS. PERIOD! That means no amplified guitars, horns, drum machines, carney barker microphones, whatever. That also includes quieting kiosks, carts, etc., selling hats, "dance" music, etc., who also seem to have a compulsion to add their recorded noise pollution. It is AUDIO SPAM!

There is supposedly some sort of decibel level regulation. It is useless. It is obviously not enforced. Probably not enforceable.

Sitting in a patio, diners/drinkers are subjected to several conflicting and overlapping performances, mostly no talent, and the diners/drinkers have to shout to converse with their table mates.

JUST SAY NO TO AUDIO SPAM! NO AMPLIFIERS ON THE SANTA MONICA PROMENADE.
