I thought the whole thing was just to do with protection of staff, just like the whole no smoking thing. The way most places got around this was just to supply ear plugs free of charge. The only places I've ever played with a limiter are older and more respectable buildings. If it was brought in as law then surely all gigs would become a thing of the past???

So, anybody in and around York next week, the band what I is in, Captains of Industry can be found warbling away at the City Screen in York. Fun packed evening with 4 acts on, so the £5 isn't too shabby I don't think (£4 with a flyer). If anybody does turn up after reading this, come and say hi, I might even buy you a drink All the best James - Currently spanking my plank for Captains of Industry [url="http://www.myspace.com/captainsuk"]http://www.myspace.com/captainsuk[/url]
