I don't know if this is genuine or not, but I asked one of my chums (who is a university graduated acoustics professor) and apparently '90,000 screaming watts' actually equals an ear-splitting 49.5 dB!
40 dB = Library, bird calls (44 dB); lowest limit of urban ambient sound
50 dB = Quiet suburb, conversation at home. Large electrical transformers at 100 feet.
Can't help thinking that either Jamie is wrong, or Motley Crue are wrong!
