SIR – Your editorial ‘Festival is a huge draw to district’ (T&A, July 2) has given me an entrepreneurial inspiration.

One weekend towards the end of this summer I propose to mount powerful loudspeakers on the roof of my house and transmit music at a sufficient volume to heard at least two miles away down the Aire Valley.

This service will commence on the Friday evening and continue through Saturday until Sunday evening.

I realise that I shall be in danger of behaving anti-socially so I shall open my garden at a very modest entrance fee to those who want to experience the event at close hand.

This will be an expensive promotion but I give my word that I shall not seek any financial support from Bradford Council. I intend to call the occasion ‘Beech Street Music To Waken the Dead’.

I would be be grateful if you would allow me the hospitality of your columns to assess the degree of public support this venture is likely to receive.

Arthur Arnold, Beech Street, Bingley
