I don't think so. How many security do they have? This event will have 1 security person for every 75 revellers - 20 security (according to their letter) for 1,500 - its going to be a disaster.

Loud music is loud music regardless of genre. I assume you are just tarring every person who is going with the same brush of we will all be of our heads. Will there be some people too drunk? You bet. Will there be trouble? Im sure scuffles will break out and resolved by security. I'm sure there will be gardai presence come finishing time.

It wasnt me123 wrote: » Its not childish, I'm absolutely serious. You have it in your back yard. And no, if it was country and western I wouldn't have the same concerns about the noise - there is a huge difference between a rave and a western yee hah - anybody with any nounce can work that one out. The rave will have heavy bass, boom boom boom for 10 hours - its very unfair to inflict that on local residents without proper security - 1 for 75 revellers is not enough - scuffles is what breaks out at O'Keeffes - not 1,500 drink fuelled revellers after 10 hours of boom boom boom. I'm horrified by the thought of it. I hope the powers that be will have a bit of sense and move the venue to somewhere on the edge of town with more space. I'm not saying don't have it, I'm saying not 200 metres from residents.

People who do: Is it going to spill into the free car park on the Gashouse. i was told it would, I do not know the area very well, is that a big car park

There were children walking around in amongst the drunk poeple & everything. It was madness! Don't know how that got the go ahead at fhe time... /s
It wasnt me123 wrote: » Residents received a piece of white paper, typed letter today. They didn't mention access (at least 10 buses so says County Council), no shoppers will be able to park in the free car park so that's a lot of shoppers not in the town that day. Security? They said they are going to have 20 people for security. Are they mad? How are they going to manage 1,500 people wondering outside my house at midnight? They said they have local people performing but their website says otherwise. They say a decibel reader will be on hand all day, but don't say what the decibel limit is going to be.

On the security issue, when Minella had their barbeques every Sunday night with approx 500 people on some of the busiest nights, there were only 2 security persons on duty and as far as I know there were no reports of serious anti social behaviour either in Minella or on the way back in to town.

It wasnt me123 wrote: » You cannot compare a techno / house rave on for 10 hours in the middle of a residential area with a traditional music fleadh and a musical event at the Minella. Not only is the music totally different, ie. no base or boom boom boom for 10 hours but also the people attending the event are totally different. As far as I know, the greyhound company also have a part in Powerstown racecourse so why not have it there instead. Plenty of room, plenty of parking, not a large residential community less than 200 metres from there, perfect. Does anyone know how many tickets have been sold?

Local residents are delighted with the event and are inviting concert goes into their lawns/gardens to enjoy the music! A large fireworks display will happen at the end of the event just to thank the local residents for welcoming the event to Clonmel without any complaints.

As some one has already said, the race track would have been better for everyone. I am going away so that I dont have the bother of the noise, but I am wondering if my house will be safe.
