Hello all...

I know there are a few bars that play decent metal in Sheffield (CRB, Corp, places like that)...

Are there any good ones in the surrounding cities - Chesterfield, Barnsley, Donny, Rotherham??? Ideally ones where bands can play??

Thanks

THE GREEN ROOM at Chesterfield used to have a Saturday rock night, its a pub that becomes a late bar/club on Saturdays. Not been for a few years so dont quote me on that now, you will need to check....

Barnsley used to have a good friday rock night in the Fealty and Firkin pub on Church Street, but I did hear it has changed its name again so dont quote me on that one either. Perhaps someone can confirm the status of this night, it was 4 years back I went.....both the Mercury and Regents Park nightclub In Barnsley also used to run rock nights....In Doncaster there used to be a place called Karisma that had a rock/alt night.....no idea what happened to that....

you need to check out ALIVE to see what is happening out there.....

In Chesterhell (wooops i mean 'field'). ... . .

On Tuesday nights, you might like to drop into Bar 69 as it's "goth night" playing metal/goth/rock etc. It has a strange feeling in there as it's only dedicated to the alternative on one day a week but it's small and friendly enough.

The Green Room is rock/metal/alt every night of the week. I believe it's open till 2am on friday and saturday. It's really friendly, and you should have a good time there. Bands play, sometimes in the upstairs room and sometimes downstairs. I'm there some fridays/saturdays and during the day on some weekdays, so if you need anyone to show you stuff, PM me. We are also about to book a gig there so if you want to arrange a gig together let me know. Hope this has been helpful, have fun!
