Hi Ahmed, I've added you as an editor (sawalhyahmed at gmail) so you may update Adrian's map directly (better to avoid the fragmentation of information this way). Thanks!

So sad to learn a few years ago that L'Atelier Charonne had closed down. We spent several wonderful evenings there and got to see some of the greatest GJ musicians perform.

At least La Chope des Puces is sitll going. Well worth a weekend afternoon visit.

I would say L'apostrophe is also worth checking out. I attended the jam session once. What a vibe!
