Admin Maesknoll Red Posted December 28, 2016 Admin Report Share Posted December 28, 2016 Anyone recommend a cheap hotel near Brixton Academy, I want to see a band there in January, it just needs to be clean and within reasonable staggering distance of the Academy.

Admin Maesknoll Red Posted December 28, 2016 Author Admin Report Share Posted December 28, 2016 Well you live and learn, I always thought they were American...... As is the one of the support bands, Slapshot, but the other support band is a London based band who I don't know much about, Skinny Lister.

I've been to a few gigs there this year while working in London - I always book a hotel in Victoria when going to Brixton - just a couple of stops and less than ten minutes on the Victoria line. The Acadamy is about 2 minutes walk from the Tube station. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PunkRockDad Posted December 29, 2016 Report Share Posted December 29, 2016 I saw Skinny Lister a few years back and they were excellent. I pretty sure they were supporting Frank Turner and may even be on his label. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

readie14 Posted January 1, 2017 Report Share Posted January 1, 2017 Seen Skinny Lister 4 times now, playing the fleece later in the year (sold out). One off the best live bands around at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
