Not really, no. If you are referring to road closures for marathons/half marathons/10k runs those are in daylight on a Sunday morning/early afternoon and likely dont stop a significant number of people from getting sleep.

 

This wasnt a sporting event btw. You also make an assumption people should have known about it, I dont recall seeing anything on the matrix signs the last few weeks.

There was stuff on the matrix signs the week before down in the surrounding areas.

It had slipped my mind until 9.35pm Monday night when the missus came downstairs moaning about it. Helped someone on here a few weeks back try and find a hotel room for their son for it but the date had slipped my mind and I hadnt thought about it since. It certainly wasnt on any matrix sign I passed the last few weeks.

 

Why would people be expected to know about it if they arent Def Leppard fans? Even just telling residents in the immediate radius wouldnt have helped, I am over a mile away from Bramall Lane and could hear it as clear as day.

 

All I am saying is surely these kind of events are better held at weekends, I am not saying they should be banned. Imagine if they held the 10k run on a Monday morning instead of a Sunday. Do the indoor arenas during the week and then the outdoor stadiums in residential areas at weekends, I accept tour schedules may not make this possible though.

It was on the matrixes near bramall Lane the week before the gig.

I like Def Leppard but I ain't going to Bramall Lane.  I'm surprised Rick Savage agreed to the gig being there given he's a Wednesdayite. 

I love def leppard and is one of the only times you would have found me at bramall Lane as I was not missing them. There were a few other Wednesday fans there too as they were in Wednesday shirts.

I am sure it was great and everyone who attended it had a lovely time.

 

But on a Monday night in term time on a warm night with seemingly most of the City able to hear it? Surely would have been more sensible to have these at a weekend. My wife wanted an early night at half nine and was unable to do so as it was a warm evening and the windows are now open. A game of football doesnt generate anywhere near the same amount of noise.

 

Thoughts? Do I have a valid point or am I just moaning? 😄

Just moaning, was a brilliant night with the vivas, motley crue and def leppard.

Remember seeing Def Lep in 1979 with 100 there saying these won't make it. .😆...

I am sure it was. Didn't doubt that. Be better at a weekend that's all. Even for the majority of those attending.

I saw them a year later. They sold the City Hall out, aged 16. They were very good

Here. Stop whining about it. 
 

You’ll be wanting to wander onto the railway soon, to get the phone that your feral child just threw on the tracks.

 

Get some of these and leave folk to enjoy themselves:
