Hmm. I wrote this a few days ago, but it seems I didn't post it.

( Violent Femmes @ Shepherds Bush Empire )
As a further request, can anyone recommend (a) a decent pub and (b) a decent eatery in the vicinity of the Shepherds Bush Empire ?
Our standard meeting-up location is the fairly manky Wetherspoons. However, despite being fairly manky it's usually ridiculously crowded, thus suggesting that there may not be a nicer option nearby. There are a few adequate eateries (the Aussie pie shop, the Thai round the corner, the oriental buffet place opposite the Wetherspoons) but nothing so far has been particularly good.
My theory is that large venues scare away nice restaurants, and my evidence for this is the Empire and Brixton Academy. And you have to hunt quite hard to get a reasonable meal near the Carling Hammersmith Carling Carling Apollo, too.
