This thread has reminded me of an enjoyable, memorable evening in the northern Italian town of Treviso, where the local council laid on a free concert.
The American Airforce band played for 3 hours. A stage and seating had been laid out and the square was packed with folk. Local bars, shops and restaurants did a roaring trade.
Also - anyone who has been to St Marks Square Venice, knows how the bands there on Saturday night draw the crowds - shops stay open - bars and restaurants are packed.

We are supposedly due to have a warmer climate within a decade - let us adopt the Mediterranean way and begin into enjoy our town centre again
