The fantastic Brighton live music venue The Freebutt is in danger of being closed down by the Environment Health Department. Save The Freebutt explains the situation but basically The Freebutt is in danger of closure for causing a public audio nuisance, due to complaints by just one local resident! Having ackowledged that there might be some sound leakage The Freebutt have tried to get access to the residence to establish where the noise is coming from but strangely have been refused access, absolutely crazy! Sounds like the resident needs to move!
I’m sure like me you’ve seen some amazing gigs whilst profusely sweating over the years in The Freebutt, highlights for me are Deerhoof many years ago now when there was the long thin layout and more recently when Brother Ali tore the roof of the Freebutt. Forget about the pillar, The Freebutt must be saved! sign the petition here and Join the Facebook group
