Whats The Best Pub for Live Acts
 
Was wondering what peoples reccomendations would be for the best pubs/clubs for Live Entertainment, at weekends or during the week is at the moment. Many pubs are very quiet these days, so usually prefer to go to see an entertainer/singer/group, but there does'nt seem to be as many places now which put them on in a reliable manner so that you would definately know when there would be someone singing on any given night? Usually end up at Brookes Club or sometimes Stanhill!

Best Regards - Taggy

Depends what you are into but The Hope and Anchor have some good live bands on on a Friday.
Seen some pretty good Rock and Metal bands in there and the occasional 60's cover bands.

I know my brother-in-law's band have played at the Hope & Anchor a few times and it's always been a good night.
