Take That and piss off

Residents of Cardington in Bedfordshire say Take That's tour rehearsals in a nearby hangar are too loud, as the band prepare for stadium shows.

Thousands of people will flock to see Take That when they head out on tour later this week. Presumably none of them will be travelling from the village of Cardington in Bedfordshire, though. The group have been rehearsing for their live shows in a nearby hanger and residents have apparently heard enough already.

One local told The Daily Star: "Take That might think that they sound fantastic but just try telling that to my seven-month-old daughter. We live in Cardington Village, and it's just too loud. Some days we have a real problem getting her to sleep because of the noise from the hanger. They seem to be practising constantly. Of course, they think most of the sound stays within the aircraft hanger but I can assure you it travels. You have to remember they are getting ready to play stadium gigs so you can just imagine the volume at which they are belting their songs out. Some days it has sounded like we are having our very own Take That gig. I'm just glad they seem to have moved on now".
