Judge Orders Loud Hip-Hop Fan To Endure Beethoven
Posted: 2 years ago
A Judge in Illinois ordered a hip-hop fan who had violated noise levels to endure 20-hours of compositions by Beethoven.
Andrew Vactor was fined $150 after he persisted in playing his favourite hip-hop music at loud volumes through his car stereo.
But Champaign County Municipal Court Judge Susan Fornof-Lippencott promised to cut the fine to $35 if Vactor agreed to broaden his musical horizons.
The Judge said she wanted the punishment to show the defendant what it felt like to listen to music he didn't want to.
However, Vactor was only able to manage 15 minutes of Beethoven before giving in and paying the full fine.
Speaking to the Associated Press, he said: "I didn't have the time to deal with that. I just decided to pay the fine."
Judge Fornof-Lippencott has a history of unusual sentences.
In one case of financial irresponsibility, she offered defendants the chance to escape heavy fines by watching a TV documentary about fiscal prudence.

I dunno, 20 hours of one specific composer could get pretty ridiculous after the first hour.

"i could do mozart, or yoyo ma. but not beethoven."
BAD, Yo-Yo Ma doesn't even compose most of his own music. Bach is where its at btw.

I actually just got a listen to yo-yo ma's latest work..... I am now fully confident in saying that this guy is a decent cellist, but a garbage musician.
