I logged in yesterday after a very long tiresome day... it gave me a headache, I swear I never saw so many bards even though my server is a ghosttown, seems like everybody logged in just to play music, everybody was just standing there and no matter where I ran to, loads of people just playing weird tones trough each other ... I teleported to my house.

Seems I'll be avoiding people/town for another month.
You can mute player sounds at the bottom of the sound settings ("other PCs"). It will disable other people's crafting, emote and battle skill sounds as well, unless they are in your party. It's not perfect but better than secluding yourself somewhere.
