Strange that Band on the Wall is listed as North East.

Have voted for Trades Club, though I've never been....

I would have probably voted for The Deaf Institute (Manchester) if it had been on the list.

I was just about to go on it and vote for that. First one that came to mind.
Oh well.

Not sure about their definition of a small venue. The Concorde 2 in Brighton is not in my opinion in any way, shape or form a small venue.

If they wanted a small but excellent venue in Brighton then the Prince Albert would have been my choice.

Only one per city? Not much of a choice if you ask me.

Ended up voting for the 12 Bar Club because it's the only one on that list that I've been to!

Ditto. Though I like the Green Note a lot too. I guess the Green Note isn't rock enough for the NME.

i can go one better than that - i haven't been to any of them, and the nearest venue to me is about 200 miles away! I think last year Miss Peapods in Penryn was nominated. The Princess Pavillions in Falmouth and The Phoenix in Exeter are other venues i frequent in the 'south west'.

This is the NME, so I'm guessing they mean if it holds less than 60% of Kanye West's audience it's considered a pisshole.

Definitely agree about the King Albert. I've been to the Concorde 2 countless times because, a) it's right on my doorstep, and b) they always seem to draw the best acts, but I don't know what it is about that place but the acoustics do tend to sound a bit washed-out for some reason unbeknownst to my sonically-ignorant self.

Out of Brighton, I'd vote for the Blind Tiger Club.
