Written by Alan on June 30th, 2009To celebrate the start of the building of a white elephant – sorry, I mean, “cultural quarter” – in Southampton city centre, the Council arranged an event which seemed to involve some French drummers and a trapeze artist hanging from a crane over the building site and being blasted with fireworks launched from the roof of the Guildhall. Now when it comes to culture, there is more culture in a pot of joghurt than in Southampton and I have low expectations of this changing that view. The cultural quarter will consist of bars and cafes apparently – so yet more bl**dy drunks on the streets. LET”S HAVE A DECENT CONCERT HALL FOR PETE”S SAKE!!!
