UK Tour Dates - What venue/location is best for out of towners?
Hey y'all! My husband and I are coming from Austin, Texas to London and hopping around the UK for my 40th birthday in November. We're big live music folks and Bloc Party (and Interpol) is one of my all time favorite bands, so I was super excited to see they've got a few dates on the books while we're visiting.
These are the shows that we'd be able to attend, but I'd love to get y'all's opinion on which is the coolest venue and which town has the best non-show-related activities or sites to see.
We love dive bars, site seeing, making local friends, and stuffing our faces with good food. Thanks for your help!
