May 6, 2010, 14 years ago
NWOBHM act TYGERS OF PAN TANG have issued the following update in regards to the Rush Fest event at Farnborough FC (Classic Rock Day) which was recently changed again to May 29th:
"Unfortunately the promoter is still having issues with the local council to gain the necessary licence for the event to go ahead. Can I suggest if you planned on attending or live within the constituancy voice your displeasure directly to the council. Its promoters such as Adrian who is trying to keep music live and he deserves our support."See below for the statement:
"I thought I would drop you a line to let you know that we are experiencing serious issues with the council.On Tuesday this week we set up a sound check on the pitch to do a noise assessment. It raised a serious issue in that the levels were far to high for the regulations. It has meant that we have had to postpone this event yet again???
The council however do want it to go ahead and we a relooking to hold it in the adjacent rec next to our ground. I have another noise assessment being done next week. There is a smaller event like this being held there by the council in 2 weeks time and therefore the precedence is already set.!
It is very frustrating for all involved including us, as we have now spent £20k on a website, promotions etc. I have Ticketmaster ready to go, eagle radio, surrey add and also Rocketuk ready to press the button.
I am confident that we can actually hold this event and I will come back to you once I have confirmation from the council that they are happy to proceed.
Warmest regards, Aidan."
