Letter to the editor: Cariboo Rocks The North ‘a horror show’

Please, either move the show to a location outside of town, inside at the CN Centre or turn the volume down to a comfortable level for people who live nearby.
Cariboo Rocks the North 2022
The 2022 Cariboo Rocks the North saw large crowds come out to enjoy the three-day classic rock festival.

I so enjoyed the three years break from Cariboo Rocks the North. My husband and I live in a residential area near Exhibition Park and the noise from the show is so loud and stressful for us that it makes the days of the festival a horror show for us.

I wear ear plugs whenever the “music” is playing. Why does it have to be so loud and overpowering? It's almost impossible to have a conversation, to sit and relax or even sleep while the show is on. I feel sorry for younger families living in our subdivision. How awful it must be to try and put young children to bed with the racket.

Please, either move the show to a location outside of town, inside at the CN Centre or turn the volume down to a comfortable level for people who live nearby.

I already dread the thought of the show next year. Enough is enough.
