A recent concert featuring Lynyrd Skynyrd and George Thorogood & the Destroyers has residents in southeastern Connecticut talking.

But not about the 24-minute version of "Freebird" played. Or Thorogood's alleged comeback.

Instead, the residents are still saying the concerts being held at the Mohegan Sun Casino's Uncas Pavilion are too loud. Students can't study, people can't sleep, and Throrogood didn't play "Bad to the Bone." (OK, maybe not the last one.)

The pavilion is located outdoors. The Mohegan Tribe is expanding its casino and is building an indoor arena, where the concerts will soon move.

Until then, such decibel-breaking groups as Trisha Yearwood, Vince Gill will be playing concerts all summer.
