Thread Name: Police stop Wild Hunt Morris
Subject: RE: Police stop Wild Hunt Morris
It seems to me that the real problem was that nobody had a chance to think. I bet if the complainer had been told that the music was live, traditional and fun and that it would not go on all night, then they would have been content to let the show go on.

Wild Hunt could have offered the person a free beer if they came down to see what was up. They also could have offered to muffle the drum some. Keep in mind that a person in a nearby building probably only heard a monotonous whack-whack-whack sound from their biggest drum.

People really hate it when some bar manager cranks the volume on the speakers all the way up and then blasts the neighborhood for hours with music he's not even listening to. That is probably what the complainer thought was gonna happen.

Maybe next time Wild Hunt Morris will be ready with a good response to the 'community relations' request.
