Have to agree, these restrictions remind me of Cromwell and the Puritans . Are these restrictions national or local ? ( Zero mentioned Darwen as an example in an earlier post) seems to me this is a local issue since the local authority is now responsible for licensing pubs and entertainment venues , I think one or two local politicos check into this site now and then, maybe someone with local contacts could make them aware of this thread and ask for their views on the subject .
In no way am I suggesting that the Hyndburn council get involved in the local music/arts scene (God forbid that we have art by a kommittee) but as a first step they could review and ease up on unneccessary restrictive rules and regulations that would encourage a more vibrant live music scene.
