Voice overs

[chrisatpsu]

The simple fix for "too loud" is to pull the power for the transmitter. The burst of static will have them diving for the volume control.
For the reasonable volume people, they'll just wonder for a moment, then they'll applaud.

or cross it with a mix of Gregorian Chant and Skrillex

Forgot to mention- if nothing else, having the voiceover request the visitors think of your neighbors will win huge points with your neighbors, even if you don't get full compliance. My neighbors thanked me this year and last just for having the voiceover. I apologized for the more challenging guests, but I was told, "Don't worry about it. All you can do is ask."
