Just two days before he was due in court over breaches of a noise abatement notice, Holding, 48, was subjecting neighbours in Leeds to high-decibel TV coverage of the Glastonbury music festival.
Holding, of Kitchener Place, Harehills, was fined £250 with £1,807 costs by Leeds magistrates after repeatedly breaching an abatement notice.
Leeds City Council was first alerted to loud music coming from Holding's home in September 2005 and he was served with a notice in March 2007.
But Holding breached it seven times between September 2007 and January 2008, with intense bass music blaring out at night.
If Holding continues to breach the order the council can start further legal proceedings and seize equipment, including TVs and stereos.
Coun Steve Smith, executive board member for environmental services, said: "This is a classic example of someone failing to heed warnings. People should not be subjected to excessive noise in their own homes. This case shows that the council will use its powers when negotiation fails."
