My London gig map

Right, some of you lot will say this is a music list from a bloke who runs quiz night and manages loyalty cards for a living, and you'd be correct, but I've been dragging mates round London venues for twenty years and I've earned the right to an opinion. Started this list on the back of a beer mat in the Nags Head after Palace drew 1-1 away and I needed cheering up with some proper decibels. Half these places I can walk to from Orford Road, the rest are worth the Victoria line schlep. Walthamstow's still got the best pub crawl in London, don't @ me, but even I'll admit you've got to leave the village sometimes for a proper gig.

The list

1The Nags Head E17The Nags Head E17, 9 Orford Road, London E17 9LPWalthamstowMy actual local, two minutes from my front door. Jazz nights and vinyl sets that make the burger menu taste even better. Home advantage, obviously.
2Orford House Social ClubOrford House Social Club, 73 Orford Road, London E17 9QRWalthamstowOpen mic here is pure chaos in the best way, I've seen a bloke do three songs on a kazoo and get a bigger cheer than the quiz final round. Proper community stuff.
