In Singapore, a group performing on a busking stage found themselves in an uncomfortable situation when a man became upset about their volume. The four-member band, led by Jazz Lee, was playing their rendition of Bruno Mars' "Locked Out of Heaven" outside a MRT station for over two hours. As they continued their rendition, an uncle approached them, repeatedly telling them "Lower your volume.
You're too loud!" Despite the man's persistent demands, the band acknowledged his presence but kept playing. The uncle's aggression escalated, as he approached the keyboardist and pointed a finger in her face. Realizing the situation was getting out of hand, the band decided to stop playing and pack up to ensure their safety. Police arrived later, but the man had already departed.
Ms Lee expressed gratitude that no one was hurt during the incident, but also asked her followers what they would have done in similar circumstances. The public displayed support for the band, with some individuals offering advice on how to handle similar situations in the future, such as stopping singing and directly addressing the individual.
