Apologies for starting two threads in one day (I'm sure yer arsed). Save the Freebutt please thanks

Save The Freebutt Petition

 

[CHAPPERS]

Signed! Is this because of the noise of the music or the noise of people gathering outside? Every time I've been there since it was done up the bouncers have had quite a job keeping everyone quiet in the smoking bit.

 

[CHAPPERS]

Oh and I won't be paying 25 sheets for Doom.

 

[wellquickwoody]

Signed.

 

[Horton's halftime iceberg]

Signed, lets hope the council pull their finger out and give this great venue a break.

 

[Soton Seagull]

Signed. Would be a shame to lose a great little venue.

 

[Spider]

Freebutt is very good. It has a great line up of bands. Will be a shame to see it go.

 

[Twinkle Toes]

Signed.

f*** the NIMBY's: GO FREEBUTT!!

 

[Albumen]

We've lost the BarFly (Gloucester) and Pressure Point (Richmond) over the past couple of years, let's hope the Freebutt doesn't go the same way.
Signed.

 

[Notters]

I wish they'd get rid of the f***ing pillar.

[tedebear]

We'll both sign it - Zef mentions it a lot in his reference to Moloko Plus / Shiner days...

 

[Ninja Elephant]

I wish they'd get rid of the f***ing pillar.

Amen to that.

 

[Notters]

and what's with having to go out one door, out another, up a flight of stairs, through another door, down a flight of stairs, through a door, down a corridor and through another door for a pee these days - and the reverse afterwards?

 

[The Modfather]

We've lost the BarFly (Gloucester) and Pressure Point (Richmond) over the past couple of years, let's hope the Freebutt doesn't go the same way.
Signed.

Agreed.

Do not wish to lose another live music venue.

Also signed

 

[New Carpet?]

Signed.

They get so many great under-the-radar bands in at The Freebutt, it'd be a shame to to let such a important Brighton venue go.

 

[shoreham moonraker]

The engine rooms shut today as did the hanbury, bad day for live music.

 

[medicine man]

I'd heard about The Hanbury, but The Engine Rooms too? f***...

 

[Spider]

The threat of closure is because of one complaint from a neighbouring resident (who probably moved in knowing that there was a live music venue next door). It also seems that the resident is refusing the Freebutt entry to their property to allow the venue to properly assess how to solve the noise bleeding issues. Would be a real shame and a massive joke if the place closed because of this.

Is it possible that the Argus will get involved? There needs to be some fuss about it. Lets face it Brighton generally thrives on its image as a cultural centre, yet it seems that no one really cares if all the small venues that help create this are allowed to close for suprious reasons.
