Of London's grassroots music venues, The Borderline is one of the best-known. Indeed, we've sweated away many a night in this Soho institution.
A launchpad (in some way, shape or form) for pretty much every successful British artist, it's hosted genres from punk to pop, disco to death metal over the last 20 years.
