A Grade II-listed live venue at 568–578 Christchurch Road in Bournemouth, Dorset, opened in 1895 as the Grand Pavilion Theatre. Renamed the Boscombe Grand, then the Boscombe Hippodrome for over 50 years, and later The Royal Ballrooms, it hosted Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, David Bowie and more through the 1960s and early 70s, and remains a live entertainment room. The Rifles are an indie-rock band formed in Chingford, East London, in 2004, drawing on The Jam, The Clash and Britpop across UK-charting albums such as No Love Lost and Great Escape.
