Failure to save the UK’s oldest working cinema is not good enough. Failure to restore the birthplace of Black Sabbath & Heavy Metal is not good enough. Action. Now. Birmingham and Brummies deserve better.

Me last week outside the old Finsbury Park Rainbow — I loved that place. Saw great bands there in the late 70s incl Clash, Jam, Ramones, Buzzcocks, Joy Division. This Saturday we celebrate London’s Lost Music Venues. What were your favourites & why? And who did you see there?
