Longy67 23 #517 Posted July 22, 2018 Walking down Dixon Road on Friday night (on my way to my own gig!), the music seemed very loud. About half way down you could hear both stages together , I don't think I'd have enjoyed being a resident in that patch! Got to catch a bit of the Stereophonics walking home (could hear them in Crookes) but I think it all finished at 10 so only got a snippet. Shame they were on at the same time as us I could hear Mr Gallagher from my garden last night, and the crowd singing along to "All You Need is Love"! That sounded great up here on Overton....:thumbsup: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Lurgh Mor 10 #518 Posted July 22, 2018 The 'fringe' is still exactly as you describe, the Red Deer were hosting bands all weekend (for example). It’s not the “ fringe”. It is the “ Tramlines Fringe” and many venues have paid to be associated with it and use the name. An excellent programme of events was published and distributed to participants .

EmmaJones76 10 #521 Posted July 22, 2018 It’s not the “ fringe”. It is the “ Tramlines Fringe” and many venues have paid to be associated with it and use the name. An excellent programme of events was published and distributed to participants . Paid? As far as I am aware no payment had to be made, they merely had to comply with a few things including a coordinated social media posting. Who told you they had to pay?

metalman 21 #525 Posted July 22, 2018 To be fair, it's not been as much of a nightmare as i'd feared; parking's been OK on our road and I've been out in the garden all afternoon and have hardly heard it. To be honest the biggest inconvenience has been not being able to drive down Dixon Road on the way to Hillsborough. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Bilge 34 #528 Posted July 23, 2018 So it all seems to have gone off OK. The world didn't end after all. Loads of people came to a big event in Sheff, had a good time and spent money in local businesses. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
