Topic: London Gig Guide MkII
Hope nobody objects to this: with Phil being AWOL I've tried to keep the thread going, and even though I've updated about 100 entries so far this month, the thread keeps slipping backward so I thought I re-launch to help keep it current and on view. However, as I'm not a Londoner (only been once, didn't like it...), any help appreciated.....
Well, there’s no guarantees until mid-July, so if you’re thinking of venturing out, check band and venue websites first; this guide isn’t definitive, we’re just making ut up as we go along; hopefully sanity resumes in September.
