RBCS 25 - OFFICIAL STATEMENT
The following is a further public Statement on behalf of One Percent Entertainments Group concerning this year’s organisation of the 25th Anniversary of the annual “Rock & Blues Custom Show” also known this year as “RBCS 25”.
On the 6th May 2008 one day before One Percent Entertainments Group was due to sit its premises license hearing with the South Derbyshire District Council and representatives of the county’s planning and emergency services committee regarding RBCS 25 we made the decision to TEMPORARILY WITHDRAW the events premises license application. We then placed a statement on the event website to that effect and to the basic reason surrounding that decision which was based around representations made at the time by the Derbyshire Constabulary, citing they believed possible public disorder could take place at this year’s event. At no time have One Percent Entertainments officially declared that the event has been CANCELLED, that was only portrayed by and in the media to which at the time our company saw no reason to make comment too.
The last two weeks have been difficult for the RBCS 25 organising team and its legal representatives but we can now move forward from what was a static position and will be making further announcements in due course and can reassure everyone that due to obvious changing circumstances regarding the issue of Police objections which we based last weeks decision on, One Percent Entertainments Group will now be reissuing our premises license for this years event in due course.
Please however be patient with us, especially those of you who have already invested into admission tickets or invested as vendors at the event so far.
We would like to take this opportunity to thank the many thousands of well wishers who have made your comments felt and shown huge support over the email contact left at the end of our previous website statement, all of which are positive towards not just our event but to the general state of repression this country is under, after all you, like us, do pay the bills for the running of it.
Get behind “Europe’s No1 Motorcycle and Music Festival” and feel free and continue to email us your honest views and opinions and please support and spread the RBCS 25 word and keep checking back with us for further announcements.
Thank you all for your patience and fantastic support so far.
