I havnt read the article, but I know Pete

It will be offbeat

http://www.shef.ac.uk/~offbeat/

any other ideas?

I might have been a bit overexcited and rhetorical when I wrote that. What I really meant is that Offbeat is the best indie night outside London as far as I know, cos there are some decent-looking nights in Manchester which I've not got round to checking out, and probably some good stuff in Liverpool and Newcastle as well. But that would have spoilt the effect. :)

It's Offbeat. Nowhere else comes close.

possibly brighton beach (not really been often enough to comment, just a guess), but fuzz club RULEs even if the article wasn't about it.go there.and try the tequila , it's exquisite. also leadmill on a monday (small room) used to be ace but not sure now.

When I was in Sheffield I remember Brighton Beach going on at the University and it was ok, however we have it up in Newcastle once a month now and though the main room is ok, there is a superb little Northern Soul room with a good mixture of Northern/Motown music. Only bummer is the beer comes in those squashy plastic glasses that spill all over your feet when you're carrying a round...a small price to pay though when the only other places I hear that stuff these days is at Scooter Rallies!

God yeah. Someone needs to invent a portable beer carrying device that you cant use to kill your fellow man. Those plastic cups are ridiculous, any nearby dancefloor turns into a slip'n'slide after midnight..
