St. Louis Airport Gets Live Muzak

September 6, 2007 at 1:00 PM | 3 Comments

Waiting in security lines is bad enough without enduring that canned remix of Piano Man playing over the airport PA. So Lambert-St. Louis International Airport has just fired up a classical music series in its main terminal.

Set up above the concourse C/D security checkpoint, local harp maestra Sue Druckenmiller serenaded passengers yesterday afternoon. More piano and harp are on the schedule for the future to provide "soothing music for the passengers in line," a spokeswoman says.

So far, concerts are happening twice a week, but the airport hopes to schedule more shows, particularly during the holidays. Hey, if the flights aren't leaving on time, at least you can catch some live music.

    STL

    This is the most depressing U.S. airport I've personally experienced. (HNL is pretty messed-up looking but being in Hawaii helps its cause.) What STL needs is to be completely rebuilt! Oh, and JetBlue flights :) Then they can add the muzak.

    Funny you should mention that...

    Maybe now that Director Dolliole is out and Director Hrabko is in, they'll be able to finish those renovations. You know, instead of doing favors for Mayor Slay.

    And without all that JBlu traffic, the STL ghost terminal is perfect for filming movies.

    It's come to my attention that I'm a complete airport dork.
