Description

The dropdown menu in 'filter by location' appears to list all of the locations where a gig is being hosted on the site. Currently the first item in the dropdown menu is 'London' and the second item is 'Cambridge'. This isn't surprising as there are 3 gigs on the site being hosted in London, 1 in Cambridge and none anywhere else.

However, as the application scales, with perhaps hundreds or thousands of gigs, we can expect there to eventually be dozens of locations. Currently the dropdown menu isn't in alphabetical order, with London before Cambridge. Therefore, when the project scales, a user from Alnwick would be very confused if they need to scroll past London, Cambridge and Birmingham in order to find Alnwick in the dropdown menu. Users would waste time scrolling and inspecting every dropdown item in order to find their location. Whereas if the dropdown menu was in alphabetical order, users from Birmingham can see lots of locations starting with 'A', and know that Birmingham is likely a few items down, and users from Yeovil can begin their scroll towards the bottom of the dropdown menu.
