• Retribution ; awesome rock/goth venue on the edge of the city centre 80 wharf street south (near lee circle car park). Pretty much all sorts of ages 18 - 40 but probably mostly 20 - 25. We have friends travel over a hundred miles to stay with us so that they can go to retribution. If it's not your sort of thing np don't go but if it is it's truly breathtaking! www.rocknite.co.uk

• The Shed, a good place for local up and coming bands with gigs most nights The Charlotte, this place is bigger than the shed and has more well known bands play there, it has a decent history aswell with bands like Rage Against the Machine and Oasis have played here, current bands that r makin it quite big on the rock scene that have played here are the likes of [spunge] and whitmore. The Attik, pokey little venue near the connexions building in town

• the charlotte is the best in leicester - its small but has the biggest and best bands that exist (including the unsigned fellas). Hell is for heroes, my awesome compilation, this girl, products of the fall have all had shows there - if u know ur metal or emo..u'll know them!!! :)
• DeMontfort Hall gets packed sometimes and you get some semi-famous bands, noting great. my advice is go to NEC for music
• De Montfort Hall, many pubs have live music regularly.
• de monfort hall
• Charlotte, Shed...erm...
• de montfort hall gardens or just outside it. the musician's not too bad either. charlotte should go back to its original layout: acoustics poor, and line of sight worse. sorry! but it's true. abbey park underused. phoenix.
