FTS, not FTL.

I believe the example above is more about sound speed than light speed.

I experienced concerts in stadiums, in the back rows, where the distance from the stage makes the sounds arrive noticeably later than the visuals.

The delay is really perceptible, and disturbing, to a point.

A TV audience would not suffer from it (assuming a live broadcast, with negligible broadcast latency, for the example to make sense).
