Kings Cross Water Rats 328 Grays Inn Road, Kings Cross, London WC1X 8BZ
Looks like I didn't go to this but https://www.concertarchives.org/venues/the-water-rats has it that Kenickie played here around the time I moved to London, with Formula One and Snug. I might have been here, I went to EVERYTHING at this time.
This Melody Maker gig guide just says Splash Club WC1, assume that's the Water Rats.
I did not attend this one as far as I know, but if I keep tabs on things I wasn't at it helps figure out out I attended.
