MOAN, moan, moan. Is that all people in Redditch can do? They moan when there's nothing to do and they moan when there is.

Are the people who are moaning about the cost of the AIR Festival the same people who were too tight to pay for tickets in the first place?

The festival may not have been the biggest or best or not as well publicised as it could have been but as it was the first time Redditch had held such a festival, maybe lessons can be learned for future events.

And yes, I am a council taxpayer and also a working lone parent who originally bought tickets at £18 each as I thought it would be a good day for the people of Redditch.

I bet the council is now wishing it hadn't bothered.
