Eighties pop fan Justine Thompson was ordered to pay more than £1,040 for repeatedly playing The Cures 'Boys Dont Cry' at full blast. Thompson aged 31, had also belted out 'Geno' by Dexys Midnight Runners and The Smiths 'This Charming Man' so loudly it shook flats around her home in Brighton, a court heard. City magistrates found her guilty of ignoring a noise abatement notice.
