noseyrosie Posted November 10, 2005 Share Posted November 10, 2005 What the good gravy has happened to my beloved Leadmill since I've been in Brum? I went tonight because I'm on reading week and yes, it was full of students (I'd expected that), but there were also loads of chavs (on Indie/Electro night), and 3 fights at the end! I went every single week in the summer and not a peep?!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rentaknight Posted November 10, 2005 Share Posted November 10, 2005 I've noticed ALOT of tension in Gatecrasher too in recent nights, what's that all about. Usual I don't notice anything but recently it's been fight left right and center... jesus... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lilemma22 Posted November 10, 2005 Share Posted November 10, 2005 I know everyone is loving indie which i suppose is a gud thing, but i don't want it attracting the wrong crowd. People don't seem to apprictiate the music anymore they only like it cus its cool and commercial. 'Does my head in' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'Does my head in' Unfortunately, every scene implodes when it gains popularity, and gets more and more mainstream until everyone gets bored of it and looks for something else underground or cool.

Andy78 Posted November 10, 2005 Share Posted November 10, 2005 I remember the leadmill being like that years ago (about 8 years maybe?) I always seemed to get stuck in the middle of a fight for being in the wrong place at the right time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went every single week in the summer and not a peep?!! several things I think. 1. Wednesday were at home and they took a panning. 2. Indie is now mainstream so you get all your little idiots going along. 3. for me, the Leadmill has been going down hill for the last 10 years. It used to have such a good friendly vibe on all nights with people genuinely there for the music and to enjoy themselves. Now the music they play is cheesy pap and mainstream indie. Bring back the old Joyrider. 4. the dance scene died. all the rlaph lauren shirt wearing crowd no longer frequent Gatecrasher. Indie si the new thing so you get local idiots 9and I'm a local btw) going to the Leadmill instead. same thing happened to a lesser degree with Urban Gorilla.
