• The Three Nuns apparently, Notts is good w/ Ice Arena, Rock City (OKish) and the awesome Junktion 7
• As far as i remember the Newshouse does a fairly chilled live night in a sunday night, with plenty of covers (indie, bit of 60's etc) and the atmos is pretty good
• Town Hall and the uni - not great choice really
• ***The three nuns is one that sticks in my mine. It pretty small but very personal. Ive seen some great acts in there. Outside is always alot of fun (it might not be the place jsut the memories!! :P) But i do recomand to see and band there.
• Try the Orange Tree (Sunday nights) or the 3 Nuns on Churchgate on Saturday night. Orange Tree does get really packed with students though but thankfully it's not too bad on a Sunday.
• Every where in the Uni! Suicide tower as we knew it had bands and gigs pouring from every oriface and of course all the up and coming stars started in the uni! paul young (not a personal favourite) john lydon with PIL - a definate for my youthhood...................
• the labour club, but someone shut it down. the town hall, for the trendy oldies or the union
• There are times when the University has classical concerts. Usually by the East Midlands Orchestra. One hopes for more!
• Students Union
• The Orange Tree is the place to be on a sunny Sunday afternoon, haver good bands and potent cocktails (depending on who serves you)
• Best Venue around is Rock City in nearby Nottingham. Not stricly Loughborough but you can get the number 1 bus to it from there. Does that count?
• The Griffin has sadly (?) decided to knock live music on the head. Fortunately, it is being replaced by a live DJ, the legendary Jim Shady (real name: Jim Hartley) once of Echo's fame.
• Anywhere where you have a radio 107 Oak FM
• The Griffin!!! Although after the appearance of the diabolical Red House (fuck me, were THEY bad!), we can only hope that the pub will have its' entertainment licence revoked.
• Student Union - not!!! When will some decent bands be booked for Thursday nights? Failing that, some bands that we have heard of! When I were a lad, it were all Ocean Colour Scene and pre-fame Radiohead round here. Even the Neds played a couple of times. Now, it's all gone to pot.
• Uni Union on thursday night
• The Three Nuns on Churchgate have live bands every Tuesday & Saturday nights, and Jazz bands play the first Wednesday of every month.
• Leicester and Nottingham.
• Like Jazz? Try The Priory, top of Nanpanton Road, on Saturdays.
