Post Visting Paris and London in early April
My wife and I will be in Paris and London in early April. We've already got a huge list of things to do and see thanks to very knowledgable and wise friends but we'd like to hear some stuff from locals. We like art, music (hardcore punk and indie rock), regional food and more. Let us know what we should see!

St-Germain is one of my favorite places in the world. Lot's of cool stuff for killing a day. Best falafel too.

You must go and see the Paris Flea Market! It's massive. Lots to see and do there, you never know what you'll find!

London-
For gigs check here: http://www.eroding.org.uk/
Museums: John Soane and Dennis Sever's House are some of the best.

Depends on when you're actually around though. The ICA is doing this:
http://www.ica.org.uk/28162/Seasons/Strange-Attractor-Salon-From-Animism-to-Zos.html
Which I need to get to.

Loads of stuff in London.
