Silver Jet Posted March 30, 2005 Share Posted March 30, 2005 Res Rocks is still excellent on a Saturday night, I'm only just getting used to them playing newer stuff in their but they still play a load of Motley Crue, AC/DC, Black Crowes, The Quireboys etc etc so it's good for me. The younger ones tend to go upstairs but I've been having more of a wander round these past few weeks and they aren't as young as I first thought. I think the younger ones prefer the other night. Get me, I'm only 26 and believing I'm one of the older ones. It comes from going there (whatever it's location) for the past 12/13 years.

theadore Posted March 30, 2005 Share Posted March 30, 2005 all depends on how you look at it. The venue is horrible, although the bigger main room is an improvement on the unit of old. The drinks are still quite cheap. The place is overrun by youngsters, but then it always was, its just we all used to be those yonugsters... also lots of kids means far smaller bar queues for hardend drinkers to enjoy. Go on saturday for slightly more variation in the music and a slightly more mature clientel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was convinced they didn't when I went to 65 Days of Static a few weeks back - maybe I had too many of those £1 bottles of beer to remember!!

AaronD Posted March 31, 2005 Share Posted March 31, 2005 I've recently moved back to sheff and started going to the corp again after about a 5 year gap and it's not the same personally. I remember going on fridays and saturdays years ago at the old place and it was great. Slacker at the republic and before that the drop at the city hall were all good venues. At least there is a decent rock pub relativly close by called Nelsons otherwise it'd be a walk accross town from the dove and rainbow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carmine Posted March 31, 2005 Share Posted March 31, 2005 Originally posted by AaronD Slacker at the republic and before that the drop at the city hall were all good venues. I never liked the Slacker and felt a bit slighted when it was closed at the Republic. Does anyone know why that happened? The rumour I heard was the Republic management explained the closure as being due to the fact that the night was attracting an element they didn't like. I've never been sure this was more than a little bit of fiction, as the idea of a Rock/Alt night attracting a bad crowd was ludicrous back then.

docdoom Posted March 31, 2005 Share Posted March 31, 2005 hate rock music but monday night with 50p vodkas i used to go to last year, mainstream hiphop upstaris was about it, passable and i met my girlfriend of 9 months there bizzarelly! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miggy Posted April 2, 2005 Share Posted April 2, 2005 Been a couple of times recently (friday) plenty of kids, plenty of older types too (30+). To be honest I've not had any problem with drunk young'uns, I'm just glad they like decent music and not the cheesy RnB hell we live in! Gets a bit busy but enjoyed it. Nothing like how it used to be, so don't go expecting it to be like the Bank Street days. Anyway, who are we to complain about youngsters drinking too much? I remember having more than a few dodgy alcohol fueled nights at Corp, Slacker, and City Hall Drop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kthebean Posted April 2, 2005 Share Posted April 2, 2005 Monday at corp is good (I think, I cant really remember ) The other friday me and the fella were in the dev cat watching all the kids going down to corp, now I'm only 21 but these people looked about 14! Grumble Grumble. I blame the parents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
