Group    From 1993 

The Garage

Categories: Music / songs

From Mamacolive: "Opened in 1993, The Garage quickly established itself as the capital’s finest indie and rock venue; performing at the venue is a rite of passage for many bands. The venue has also hosted a number of underplays, with Green Day, Muse and Tom Vek being among some of the more recent acts to pack the venue. Other acts who have passed through our doors include Arctic Monkeys, Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Damien Rice, The Darkness, KT Tunstall, Oasis and My Chemical Romance."

When Orbital debuted here the club was known as the Town & Country II but we can't find any information about it then, other than the fact that there was another Town & Country in Kentish Town.
