cruella Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 I find the Casbhar to be a good night...Less young uns running about, good variety of music and a mixed friendly crowd Cant agree more about Corporation..i felt ancient in there and im only 29!....*sniff* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muddycoffee Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 I have to disagree about the Casbah. When It was the wap in the old days it was tremendous. When it reopened as the Casbah at first it was ok. But now they don't play rock music any more. Was in last saturday (sorry sat before last) and went down stairs and it was all depeche mode. Looks like rock sounds like 80s pop night retrospective. Upstairs bar was ok for a while they played stuff like smiths and harder indie stuff. Not heavy rock though. Go to Nelson for a proper rock night. Classic rock downstairs and Nu rock upstairs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phoenix Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 I'd love to find somewhere else to go. Corps not too bad on a saturday but i feel old in there too. Old Corp was great but the musics moved on and everythings changed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GazB Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 I think Bedroom do a rock night on Mondays. Threads on it here and here. Also, let's not forget the Classic Rock Bar on Eccy Rd, across from Waitrose. Thread on directions/location is here...and Decembers line-up is here. Open everyday, live bands most nights of the week, cheap drinks. Have a word with the forums very own Classic Rock, she's the landlady of the CRB.. She'll be able to fill you in better than me. Hope that helps GazB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

duffman Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 There are no good rock nights as the clubs would rather fill them with loads of young kids with mummy and daddies pocket money and play crap music. I admit I went to corp at bank street when I was young but didn't always get let in (when I did they were the best nights out I had), now they let anyone there so they can get the money in rather can keep the regular punters happy as well.

jake Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 The Simpsons last night was the one about Homer suddenly finding out he didnt understand modern music and what the "kids" were into... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muddycoffee Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 Well said Jake, I think some people want rock music to stay as it was when they were 18. It's a selfish and futile argument. Us older rockers have just got to let go of the baton and let the younger ones take over in the most popular venues. When I was 19-24 I was in Rebels 1ce or 2ce a week. If I was that age now I'd probably be in the Corporation 1ce or 2ce a week, listening to the up to date stuff. But you can't expect that the Corporation club would survive on a smattering of early middle aged rockers who only have the energy to go down once a year.
