REGARDING the 'Mela' Asian cultural event in Witton Park, Blackburn, for Councillor Ashley Whalley to say the wind 'carried' the sound (LET, August 22) doesn't make any sense.

No other event has ever been that noisy and there must have been winds blowing in the past!

I have no objection to people enjoying themselves, but when the entertainment irritates other people, or indeed invades their enjoyment, it is selfish.

Maybe there could be a mixture of 'concerts' played in the future at the same volume.

Some of the classics would be nice or maybe light operettas. There is a wide variety of organ music and so much more.

I am sure Marc Boulton (Letters, August 28) wouldn't object, for even if he didn't find them enjoyable, they would be educational!
