Live Music, Club entertainment in England

  1. A

    Leadmill

    Every touring band has played the dark and dingy Leadmill on the way up (or on the way down), and it remains the best place in town to hear live rock and alternative music. There are club nights too, but they tend to be cheesy 1970s and '80s disco classics.

    University of Sheffield Student Union

    A varied and generally good program of rock gigs and club nights – including appearances by some pretty classy DJs – make this a good spot to spend an evening, plus there's the Last Laugh Comedy Club on Sunday nights. The Union is about a mile west of the city centre.

    100 Club

    This legendary London venue has always concentrated on jazz, but it’s also spreading its wings to swing and rock nowadays. It once showcased Chris Barber, BB King and the Stones, and was at the centre of the punk revolution as well as the ‘90s indie scene. It hosts dancing swing gigs and local jazz musicians, as well as the occasional big name.
