Latest reviews for these venues
Scala is one of those venues that is wonderfully intimate where you can watch well known bands. It is definitely worth a trip down to Scala for some fun.
Special
KOKO is one challenging venue, not just for the crowd, who have to negotiate the stairways and corridors to get from floor to floor, and take out a loan to fund a few drinks at the bar, but for the artist too. The acoustics of the place mean it's a fickle do-or-die venue, a cavernous space where sound and atmosphere can either triumphantly fill every corner, or fizzle out and die on the stage. I've seen both happen and it's to KOKO's credit that when the second scenario occurs, there's at least a nice building to admire. But then, that's like having cold, ashen coffee from a gleaming gold chalice.
The Tate Modern and The Hayward Gallery (to a slightly lesser extent) are pillars of the Southbank's greatness. Always pop in whenever I'm nearby and absolutely love the Great Turbine Hall - in my hugely under-art-informed opinion, the world's single greatest art installation space.
