The Good Ship

The Good Ship in Kilburn is a live music venue, bar, nightclub and arts centre all rolled into one. Consider them an extension of your front room with a jukebox in. They are first and foremost a music bar and are actively committed to bringing the best bands to Kilburn and also using the space of The Good Ship as a place for the arts and entertainment. They have DJs, bands, spoken word and story telling nights, stand up comedy and anything else interesting/innnovative that they come across or you suggest. They sell a wide range of beers, wines and spirits and must be one of the few places in London that sells real ale after 11pm, pride on tap and loads of ales in large bottles. They have a 100 cd juke box (including Kate Bush, Nick Cave, Stevie Wonder, Interpol and a load of Nuggets and Rough Trade compilations) and change it regularly to keep it nice and fresh. Until the coin mechanism is fixed (probably never) it is also free. They have a massive screen on which they have all sorts of visuals from time to time too. They tend not to show sport, but make the odd exception for the local team...
