This cannot be construed as flaneur-ing as it required booking of tickets

But I believe it qualifies for psychogeographical bragging, at least.

This is where I spent part of yesterday:

You can all be jealous of me now.

This will probably be the only time in my life I listen to a John Cage aria with a 1000-tonne weight suspended over my head.

That's a definitively urban location and I'm sure experimental music indicates an "urge to explore". /flaneurs profile

I love experimental music (listening) and urban spelunking (moving) but I don't think I would have been at all comfortable combining the two and keeping still long enough for that gig, so I'm not envious but I applaud you for doing it and you definitely deserve bragging rights. I hope there's a leaflet/poster you can frame, maybe with your tickets, and hang in the loo (or wherever your equivalent trophy room is...).

Whoa!

That is all.

Cool!!!!!!!!!!! What was it like to be aware that you were under the river?

Wow!

(I performed in a similar-ish thing when I was about 15 or so, which is long enough ago that I can't recall many details, but it was a newly commissioned piece for brass and percussion, composed specifically for performance in an industrial space somewhere in South Wales — not nearly as cool as Tower Bridge [though I do remember it was freezing cold].)
