I can hear it loud and clear from my PC here, around half a mile away I would say.
Yes it is a good event for the area although no feedback as such from how well organised the transportation is etc.
I live in Shoreham and fully back this and hope it goes well, great for the area and we are listening to it also just fed our neighbours dog as they are at the event.
I suspect there will be loads of complaints about the noise levels though.
Sort of calm before the storm here, walked down the river to town earlier and the site looks very impressive, allegedly if this works they want to expand the event to around 70,000 annually.
Loads of out of owners in town and official program sellers at £7 a pop.
