Unusual/interesting/beautiful venues for gigs

Whah wish my bass was hidden by load of beauty's , mines usually hidden by some fat drunk women with no teeth !

Played some corking venues with Cloudbusting, but probably the worst venue Ive played would be a chicken shed in Thornton, Leicestershire. Thankfully devoid of chickens at the time, though we could have said the gig was packed with tasty birds if it hadn't been I suppose

I think with the function band we get to play some lovely places in the UK.... nice old stately homes, churches, stages, venues, front rooms and even a sports changing room

Is that second pic the New World hotel and wedding venue in Warley?

Beaten to it (and no camera phones and very little digital photography when I played there). Dreadful acoustics!!

We played a short set for a local radio station on the top floor of this building...



It was at night, but the view up the coast was stunning.

Not that the rest of the band took a lot of notice, they both suffer from vertigo.

I also played a gig on that beach back in the 90s, it was raining and bloody freezing... at least it was in a tent.
