It’s a sad show when some of London’s best live venues shutdown, which seems to be the trend in recent years Astoria, Sin and more.

Now a new addition to the list is The Earls Court Exhibition Center, yes it’s an exhibition center playing host to all kinds of conventions and trade shows but it has also housed some of the best concerts. It has also been the main arena for the Brit Awards for many years now.

Now it seems after the 2012 Olympics this building will be demolished to build a modest housing development. I think that sucks and will be a great travesty for West London and the music industry.
