ezbass Posted October 6, 2016 Share Posted October 6, 2016 It appears that there is a petition to stop folks moving into areas adjacent to known music venues and then complaining about the noise until the venue is closed down, depriving both venue workers and bands of employment. As the MU say, "Keep music live." https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/168135 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Dare Posted October 6, 2016 Share Posted October 6, 2016 Yes. They get the place cheap because it's next to a music venue, then try to get the venue closed so as to make a killing on the property price. Some a'hole tried this in the case of a well know North London traditional music venue I frequent. He didn't get far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lowhand_mike Posted October 6, 2016 Share Posted October 6, 2016 signed, theres new flats being put up right behind a well known music pub near me so this is very relevant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redbandit599 Posted October 6, 2016 Share Posted October 6, 2016 (edited) Signed and shared - get this everywhere. One venue out my way has been going for over 20 years and is getting hassle not from a new neighbour, but a developer who has done up a nearby house and thinks he can up the price without a music pub nearby.. arsehole...

Lozz196 Posted October 6, 2016 Share Posted October 6, 2016 Sorted. A venue I play every now & then in Milton Keynes have had a Sikh temple move nearby which is trying to get the venue shut down. Many roads/estates in MK they could have moved to but no, has to be next to a music venue then complain about the noise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
