I know I am probably in the minority that it doesn't bother by me, people moaning for moaning sake. I don't go as I'm not a music or 'festival' fan but it's a good thing for the City!
Same sort of people that move by an airport & complain about plane noise or by a sports stadium and moan about floodlights.
Yup!
It's ridiculous that the council have to bow down to a few moaning ninnies, but unfortunately that is always the case. Lots of well to do people down that neck of the woods who would shudder at the mere thought of a rock and pop festival.
Of course Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture with all the canons blasting would be entirely fine I'm sure.
Think they had to agree to a strict curfew though, cause local residents were complaining about the 'thump, thump, thump and their windows rattling!'
Best solution is to have bands come on earlier, 8.45 instead of 9.15. then bands can do extra encores if they want.
Quite funny, cause one of my daughter's mum's was quite shocked on Friday night.
She misread it as the Fine Young Cannibals playing, not the Fun Lovin Criminals, so all the MF's didn't go down too well at all.
Another great day, the on,y think the council do right at the moment! It's a great event and lucky with the weather.
the only criticism was trying to get out of the car park at the end but I can live with that
Just seen on the CET poll, would people pay £2 to get in to the festival?
Personally i would say yes, i am happy to pay even £10 for a weekend pass to get in (and kids go free) if it meant that the festival can continue. Its something that the city does very well, its organised well and it needs to continue.
I have no problem with them sponsoring it if they keep it going. Free day at the Benson & Hedges festival? Sure!
