The Good Ship in Kilburn is a pub that caters perfectly for live music and hosts nights on a regular basis. It offers an unconventional sunken stage with a large projector screen behind. It was chosen as the location for The Who Convention 2010's Saturday warm up event because of its location and proximity to Who history but also because it is run by fans of live music.
It is situated just a stone's through from the Gaumont Theatre where The Who performed in 1977 with Keith Moon and where some of the album photography for Quadrophenia was taken.
