[quote name='Earbrass' post='264700' date='Aug 18 2008, 04:33 PM']But it's not a single night, is it, if it's an "established venue". I'm 100% on the side of the neighbours here - it's the venue who are being selfish, by not caring about their neighbours as long as they are getting their payment. Well done the neighbours for getting the restrictions imposed. More people should complain more often.[/quote]
sorry, but just no, not in this situation
they chose to live in a house on the A1, they should not have made that decision if they don't like noise! also, chances are just as likely that they moved in whilst the venue was already there, so they should accept noise every weekend! i used to live behind a hotel that did weddings and bands, and there was no such sound restriction, and i don't think there should be. if your sayin that the venue are selfish for not worrying about the sound level, thats bollox, your calling the bride and groom 'selfish' for wanting a band to play at their wedding, the venue just take the fee for hiring the room or whatever, they dont choose the bloody band. and if your honestly suggesting that makes the bride and groom selfish for wanting to make their day special, and not the neighbours for wanting to enjoy coronation street, then we agree to disagree
well done for putting up with those conditions mate
