Decibels
207 decibels.
The amplitude of sound is measured in bells, though, more commonly, decibels. 1 decibel is the faintest whisper and 10 is the equivalent of a front row rock concert (or something along those lines).
That depends how close you measure to the rock music. The closer - the louder! The distance is very important if you measure with a sound pressure level meter.
70-100 decibels
