Best London venues for pop music?

[Cantdosleepy]

We're looking to do a bunch of shows in London, but our music is very Sly Stone/Fleetwood Mac sounding, and we don't want to slug away in grimy indie rock venues like Monto Water Rats etc. Which are the really cool pop venues in London at the moment?

Play the grimy rock venues. It'll do you good.

London's not so much about the venue as the promoter - most venues don't do the booking in house and just hire the place out.

Unfortunately I'm not very up on promoters doing your type of stuff, but you could try the Wheelbarrow in Camden. I think they're one of the few places that handle their own bookings and might be interested in that type of material.

I think it depends on your music.... I wouldn't say Sly Stone or Fleetwood Mac were very 'Pop'
