Keep Frome Dancing - Fight for your right to party!
Following the cancellation of Sensonic at Frome's Silk Mill due to impossible noise restrictions given to the organisers by Mendip Council, Frome would like Mendip to reconsider the importance of diverse musical events in Frome, ranging from classical recitals to club nights and relax their application process to make it easier for the people of Frome to put on diverse musical events for the people of Frome.
Why is this important?
Frome is one of the most creative and diverse towns in the South West and for its own arts festival to miss out on an event as unique as Sensonic is a real shame. It is important that Mendip recognise that dance music, in all its various forms, is not a threat and that a huge number of people in Frome desire an event such as this. Without a decent medium-sized space where DJs and visual artists can perform and people can go and appreciate this, Frome is in danger of losing its diversity.
