  1. that's true. I think if a band is popular enough to fill Wembley then they're probably popular enough to go close to filling Earls Court too though. I do prefer EC by a long way. Much better just as a general venue too. More space both inside and outside the auditorium area and they make you feel more welcome. Wembley is the battery farm of London venues. F**king crap.

    I don't mind Wembley. :( I've seen Muse and The Offspring there and both times had a pretty good time, especially Muse. Seeing Beasties there too soon, and I think it's generally a reasonable venue. Nowt great, but pretty good

  2. I actually mentioned it on the Discussions forum on efests a while ago and am writing a news feature on it for a module I'm doing on Feature Writing for my degree this term and have been looking into it's demise and whether it would have stood a chance regardless of whether it was used more often or not. It had seemed to have disappeared completely from the rader for a while, but then in the last few months, Sum 41 and The Hives have played one-off gigs there and The Donnas and The Ordinary Boys have made it the London date(s) on their tours, so perhaps, if given the chance it could again flourish, but it doesn't look at all likely to get that chance, especially seeing bands are unlikely to book a venue that could well be closed before they even get to play it
