indieboy Posted October 1, 2005 Share Posted October 1, 2005 No-one seems to have mentioned offbeat. Its been voted the best indie club in Britain by Radio 1, and is on at the University every month. But you don't need to be a student to go, I don't think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was actually radio 6, it was a text vote, I remember the time I went they were telling every one to vote. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paul_letters Posted October 2, 2005 Share Posted October 2, 2005 Letters and Colours are on at the Leadmill on 21st October if indie/alternative is your bag. Check notices and events for details. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisOffbeat Posted October 3, 2005 Share Posted October 3, 2005 Yep, it's open to students and non-students alike. For more of a taste of what it's like, check out http://www.offbeatsheffield.com which has forthcoming dates plus full playlists from the last 5 years, plus lots of other Offbeat and Sheffield indie-related stuff. Next one if Friday 14th October; worth noting that whilst it runs from 9pm to 1am you often need to turn up a bit earlier to join to queue to guarantee getting in - our venue is very intimate!

Great tunes, kinda crappy venue...but intimate As far as I know you either need a student card or need to go with someone who has a student card to get in as a guest. At least this is what we were told when I went with someone without a card once (he had to go back to get his so he could get us in). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paul_letters Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 We played at this last Friday. They have a few bands on (generally up and coming signed bands) from 9, and a club until 2am. It was a very good night, as I remember. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisOffbeat Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 To get in to the SU building to access Offbeat you can either be signed in by a student or email us in advance and be put on a non-students door-list so you don't have to be signed in. See here for more details (bottom of page) http://www.shef.ac.uk/~offbeat/frames/wherefra.htm At least 50% of our regular crowd are non-students so it seems to work OK Venue is being renovated and enlarged slightly at Christmas!
