About me:
Save the Astoria

The Crossrail project have plans on our favourite venue. Crossrail's 'people' have informed us that "The Astoria Theatre will be demolished to make way for a worksite necessary for the construction of the new Crossrail station platforms and passages."

That's right. Instead of the London Astoria, we get a hole in the ground. A building site. And all for a ventilation shaft.

Now needless to say, this is a bit of a blow, but we're not giving up yet. From here on we have to step up our efforts, and to do this, we're going to need all of the help we can get.

If you're interested in helping out, even in the smallest way, sign up to the mailing list, and add us on your Myspace. And of course, sign the petition, it'll still come in handy for demonstrating how many people want to Save the Astoria, from whatever threat.

xx Jade and Sarah, october 2006 ..

Who I'd like to meet:
People who sign our petition: http://www.petitiononline.com/savethea/petition.html And anyone who's enjoyed the Astoria over the years or knows anything about its history. The venue was built in 1893 as a Crosse and Blackwell pickle factory. And Captain Jack Harkness of Torchwood met his old girlfriend there. Oh yeah. Torchwood loves the Astoria.

Surely its like a grade A listed building or something? i dont understand how they can demolish a building with so many memorys. its been there since 1927 what gives anyone the right to tear it down?
its like knocking down parliment and putting a big shopping centre there why not? what the hell do they do for us?

The Astoria holds great memories for me and my freinds, it is a fantastic music venue and a treasure to the capital.
I'm going to chain myself to it if they bring a bulldozer anywhere near it :D

I am seeing Megadeth there on the 16th of june and i saw Hawkwind there in 2005 as well as many other bands. The Astoria is a brilliant venue. The Astoria should be a part of English Heritage then nobody could ever pull it down.
