SIR – In reply to Mr Bird’s comments (Letters, September 4) about Bingley Music Live – ‘what a moaner’. This great festival brings much-needed revenue to the area, very little trouble and lots of enjoyment to people of all ages, and to complain about the noise when you live three miles away is pathetic.

I’d rather live next to the music festival site than this regular moaner.
