You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 44.197.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 10:52, 20 August 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

'''Dingwalls Dancehall''' (original name at time of opening) is a live music and comedy venue adjacent to [[Camden Lock]], Camden, London, England. The building itself is one of many industrial [[Victorian architecture|Victorian buildings]] that were put to new use in the 20th century. The original owner of the building, T.E. Dingwall, had his name painted on to the outside wall of the building, which was a common practice by businesses in [[Camden Town]] during the late [[Victorian era]]. The paint is still visible to this day, hence the venue's name.

The  500-capacity venue was bought by promoter [[Vince Power]] in June 2020 and continues to host gigs of contemporary music. It was renamed and reopened as The PowerHaus after a copyright issue blocked the use of its original name. Power now has use of the name again and it has returned to being Dingwalls. There is also a smaller 100 capacity intimate live music venue in the canal bar which regularly puts on unsigned artists.<ref name="NME">((cite web

==History==
[[File:Killerhertz live 1981.jpg|thumb|Killerhertz performing at Dingwalls in 1981]]
First launched as the newly developed Camden Lock's flagship venue in the summer of 1973. The Natural Acoustic Band performed five times between July and November 1973. Dingwalls Dancehall was open to all - "reasonably priced at half a bar for entry"((citation needed|date=September 2016)), providing the longest bar in London (at the time)((citation needed|date=September 2016)), near-pub price drinks and New York-style burgers and chickpeas. It wasn't a club, yet stayed open till 2((nbsp))am,  hosting acts such as funk band [[Gonzalez (band)|Gonzalez]], and pub rockers [[Kilburn and the High Roads]]. Reviewed in one music paper the first summer, it was immediately recognised as plugging the "vast gap in the social and financial standings of various venues", where you can "eat, drink, boogie and listen to a live set during an evening which lasts till two"... "late enough for most people" (those were the days!) - and "excellent bands are to be found there".((citation needed|date=September 2016))

Music was first managed by former Hendrix road manager Howard 'H' Parker.<ref>((cite book|last1=Haslam|first1=Dave|title=Life After Dark: A History of British Nightclubs & Music Venues|date=Aug 13, 2015|publisher=Simon and Schuster|isbn=9780857207005|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=WCylBAAAQBAJ&q=Howard+Parker+dingwalls&pg=PT139|access-date=3 September 2016))</ref> Following Parker's death, Dave 'The Boss' Goodman, who also doubled as chef and DJ, took over from the mid 1970s to mid 1980s.<ref>'Give the Anarchist a Cigarette' by Mick Farren p.358</ref>

At some point in the 1980s, it ceased to present live shows - the premises taken over by the Lock market.

By the early 1990s the original Dingwalls Dancehall had been converted into a venue for the jazz dance club 'Talkin Loud and Saying Something', run by [[Gilles Peterson]] and [[Patrick Forge]]. Since the 2000s, the pair returned to Dingwalls with 'Another Sunday afternoon at Dingwalls', afternoon sessions that present live artists and DJs.

==Notable performances==

Dingwalls became a prominent and popular London live music venue in the [[Pub rock (United Kingdom)|pub rock]] and [[Punk rock]] era of the mid to late 1970s. Nevertheless, the booking policy was eclectic, finding time for visiting US acts such as [[Etta James]] and [[Blondie (band)|Blondie]] in 1978 and [[The Drifters]] and [[R.E.M.]] in 1983.

In the 21st century artists performing at Dingwalls have included: [[James Bay (singer)|James Bay]], [[You Me At Six]], [[Modestep]], [[Noel Gallagher]], [[Imagine Dragons]], [[Red Hot Chili Peppers]],<ref>((cite news |last1=Witter |first1=Simon |title=Red Hot Chili Peppers: 'We eat raw cactuses!' – a classic interview |url=https://www.theguardian.com/music/2014/aug/06/red-hot-chili-peppers-we-eat-raw-cactuses-a-classic-interview |work=[[The Guardian]] |date=6 August 2014))</ref> [[Sigma (DJs)|Sigma]], [[Stereophonics]], [[George Ezra]], [[Ellie Goulding]], [[The Darkness (band)|The Darkness]], [[Gallows]], [[Foo Fighters]], American Blues singer [[Beth Hart]] and, in 2011, 'Venison' (a pseudonym of [[The Strokes]], for the purposes of a 'secret' comeback show).<ref>((cite web
