Manics sites and sounds in London?

Any one know of any sites of particular interest to Manics fans? Any events Manics related going in in conjunction with the gigs?


Makin' my first trip overseas to London to see THB gigs, and would love to hear some suggestions. What record stores should I not miss?

Thanks again!

There's a gallery of MSP pictures in Proud in Camden running at the same time as the gigs. That's all I can think of!

The Assassinated Beauty exhibition at Proud is worth going to, I'll be on my third visit by the time I go with my sister before the gig

Yeah, I'd recommend Proud Galleries too. It's only a 5 minute walk from the venue and free to get in. As for record shops Rough Trade East (where they did the Futurology instore gig) is really good and there's also Sister Ray on Berwick Street.

The Horse and Groom (first London gig) is still open, although it's a chain pun now, it's on Great Portland Street.

If you're feeling ghoulish you could go to Bayswater Road, although I'm not sure if the Embassy Hotel still exists, I suspect it doesn't.

Yeah I saw on their Facebook page that they're doing after parties for all the London gigs now.

I'm aiming to go to the one on the 17th, providing my sis isn't after an early night!
