Apparently Tower Hamlets council are refusing to lay on extra public transport for the event, and are refusing to lay on extra staff to properly recycle the waste generated from the gigs. Yorke's thrown a bit of a hissy fit over it and cancelled the gigs.
Environmentalism gone too far?
this cant be true?
im going to manchester so not that it matters to me but i find this pretty hard to believe
ooooooo
Sounds like a wind up.
Where did you hear this?
I'm going to this gig or should I say was going.
Where's the rick roll link?
Not here
but it is great though. Can you say 'spandex'?

Proof please?
I refuse to believe that this can be the case as Radiohead have played there in the past, and Field Day was held there last year.
Victoria Park would come under Hackney Council's jurisdiction
rather than Tower Hamlet's though? I would have thought so anyway.
no it wouldn't
...
Yeah you're right
It just borders Hackney. It must literally be the border though, as thats bloody close!
Besides, this isn't true
I think hes takin the piss
I used to like cliche guevera's wind-up threads
but this is just rubbish.
it's within walking distance
of Bethnal Green tube station... ain't that enough? Surely there are many outdoor concerts in much worse locations... <confused>
it's not true.
