Subject: RE: Travelodge trying to close music venue (UK)
You won't win with that one. There are plenty of examples of people moving next to an airport and then complaining about the noise. Not just Heathrow and the like, but small local flying clubs have been affected this way. I don't store such information, so you'll have to take it on trust, but airfields have been closed down by incomers' complaints.

Whilst having no great sympathy for TravelLodge, any music venue that relies on loud amplification should be clamped down upon. Not only does it annoy neighbours, it does long term harm to the hearing of the attendees. Maybe it serves them right..... but it isn't a good idea.
