Sorry you don't know the full story of the loud music the first night, if you did you would not have written this post.  I though most of us knew why they turned up the music up to drown out the Auction.  It was very petty and a cruel thing to do. Of course the guy said he was sorry, after lots of conversation and persuasion with him.
However, it was well done to George who did is best during the loud music to carry on with the Auction and for his good negotiations with the guy.

How has a thread advertising a new quiz venue for the winter months degenerated into a slanging match about music playing on the night of the 3Cs auction.  Actually I was with a group on the first night of the auction in the Nil bar and we were not aware of any loud music. Maybe it was because we were enjoying ourselves so much we were oblivious to any outside influences.

Initially I was neither involving myself in.a 'slanging match' nor talking about the Promises Auction. I was agreeing that they ignore the general level of noise in Calis and it can't be good for adjacent businesses or the future of the resort in general.

The point that Vojos was playing excessively loud music only serves to prove my point, that it only takes one to start it then the level is on it's way down the entire prom.

The guys in this bar did apologize at the time.. They owners  happen to be very good friends of mine and actually very nice men...Give them a chance.. Not many places open in The Winter in Calis... Whether a night time quiz is a good idea or not I don't know as the more popular ones take  place in the afternoon's. Apart from the AA one at Vojos... They made one mistake can we let it drop.

If they made one mistake in May, why was the music in their bar almost deafening in October?
