City Hall - great to have it back in the mix. I just wonder about the sound there, at a couple of the gigs I have seen there -- sound was fine but not perfect, compared to say Cyprus Avenue which is fantastic for sound I think.

always found city hall weird, when it's full its grand but even when it was 3/4's full it seemed and felt almost empty, dunno why...

opera fans I know say it's one of the best anywhere for those type of shows Barra O'Tuama used run there




anyhoo, the more options the better

City Hall is legendary also, for its “sprung” floor. Had no sound issues at last few i was at there, Frames, Bell X1

the ladies love a well sprung floor

Some London friends rave about Brixton Academy, another old venue. it also has the sprung floor, but has a gradual floor decent up to the stage, so even if you're at the very back, you are higher than those up the front, i have yet to get in there myself.

i’d highly recommend a read of Simon Parkes book on the venue
“Live at the Brixton Academy - A Riotous Life In The Music Business”,
all about how he bought it for £1 in the 80’s, the gang issues, police, the acts, the gigs, a fantastic read
