Brixton Academy

Brixton Academy

Stockwell Road, Brixton, London SW9 9SL

One of the last remaining of the classic venues of my youth. Great sloping floor with barriers. Obviously not a great bar in a venue like this. Have seen the likes of Queen, Pixies, Suede, REM, Def Leppard, The Darkness, Pogues, Iron Maiden, Suicidal Tendencies, PWEI here, all the biggies! The nearest good venue to us now we live in Kent.

I been here! See more in my gigography.
