A 75-year-old former East Lindsey District Councillor will face a retrial on a series of indecent assault charges.
Philip Leivers, used to represent Chapel St Leonards on the council before he resigned in the wake of the allegations.
He was convicted of abusing a young girl after giving her tickets to watch iconic acts including Madness, Dire Straits and UB40 for free while managing the Hammersmith Odeon in west London.
The victim came forward to police in 2012 after watching a BBC News bulletin featuring Leivers as a Lincolnshire councillor talking about wind-turbines being built in his district.
She also claimed he repeatedly raped her between 1975 and 1981 but Leivers was cleared of those charges following a trial at Snaresbrook Crown Court.
But the jury was unable to reach verdicts on three further counts of indecent assault and one of indecency with a child.
Leivers will have a new trial in February next year in front of a fresh jury.
During his evidence Leivers admitted playing a game where he would try and guess the colour of the girl's underwear before making her show him.
He said he only touched the youngster twice when she was 11 or 12.
He was convicted of three counts of indecency with a child by the jury but acquitted of seven counts of rape, four counts of indecent assault and a further count of indecency with a child.
Leivers, of Maplebeck, Sea Bank Road, Skegness, Lincolnshire, was bailed pending his retrial which was fixed for February 16, 2015
