  • TJS i know this place just keeps onpopping up but its one of the best places around at the mo!! u can go down and have a laugh and not worry that your gonna get the crap beaten out of you! and the staff are really cool!!
  • Tjs is the best place for gigs in port as they often have amazing up and coming bands such as estevez
  • Newport City Live Arena recently opened, using the old Odeon building down on Clarence Place. Super Furry Animals have been, many bigger bands are due to play there.
  • Tjs is the greatest music venue in Wales. Its legendary!!!4m Ghost of Robot to Hole every1 has played here. We,the new bred of sweaties r havin the baddest time and its a gr8 place 2 pull - even if there are sum very dodgy types
  • otts on a tuesday night for metal alterantive music. tjs as well check their website
  • TJs is the best place for this, some place on Stow Hill can't remember the names, Arena has bigger bands... Cardiff - Clwb Ivor Bach (Welsh Club) or Barfly in town put on gigs and can be cool... Bristol - Fleece and Firkin, The Station or Louisiana (note all of above is for punk/metal/indie kinda stuff)
  • TJ's, naturally. Some good gigs on fairly often - you could always check out their site [search for TJ's Newport - I'm not giving the address ;)]
  • TJ's again. (Yeah Kurt did play there and Courtney) Yeah and Le Pub I guess, but its hard walking up those stairs after a few pintsalager. Newport Centre's had some good stuff over the Years, I saw Radiohead there before they made it big. They were supporting James (ha).
  • Newport centre and TJ's. There is alsorts for everyone. The best gigs and the small shows in the Newport Centre, upstairs in the summer! Gr8 Stuff.
  • tjs is the best place in newport!!!! saw finch ther, they rocked! gutted that the gr8 GC cancelled tho! enjoy!
  • Plaqces like O.T.T's and the Riverside have a good variety of local bands playing.
  • Personally I think a quick jaunt up the Motorway to The Bierkeller in Bristol is well worth it ... seen many a great gig in this place and no doubt will see a lot more if what theyve got going on is anything to go by
  • yates's is great place to be any night of the week, great sounds, karaoke competitions, live dj virtually every night and live entertainment. foods good too. open from 11am until very late every day.
  • For live music there's no better places to go other than le pub on a thursday(be prepared to sweat like a bitch!), the riverside on a tuesday/wednesday and tj's through out the week
  • TJ's, Le Pub, OTT's, Riverside Tavern... where should I begin.Le Pub is perfect for chilling out listening to Indie music.Downstairs plays old tunes on the jukebox and has a Sega Megadrive [You can Play Alex Kidd!Or Sonic the Hedgehog!]upstairs however is a sort of dark,windowless little attic with reasonable priced drink,a DJ who hates being asked for requests and friendly [not to mention attractive]barmen. OTT's is great for Salsa dancing/watching the upcoming Newport music scene evolve,as is The Tavern.TJ'S, of course, is legendary.Kurt Cobain went there.Nuff said.
  • Tj's is the only good place, le pub is geting better tho
  • i saw cliff richard in the leisure
  • TJ's - Legendary venue, the atmosphere and sheer good times here make up for the dirtyness and the building itself, which is practically falling apart.. Newport Centre - This is where all the "big" acts perform
  • we are in newport....
  • TJs(the misfits, fugazi, man or astroman, but nothing good for the last few months. le pub & the riverside are good for local bands
  • TJ's, everyone is going on about it but it has got some good history, especially when S*M*A*S*H played back in 96
  • a friend of mine is in a band called Laze and they are playing at Risca rugby club on the 28th october tickets £2.00 not 2 b missed you'll have a brill!!! ? nite in Risca
  • er.... TJ's
  • TJS
  • Le Pub, TJ's, the Leisure Centre, Cardiff
  • TJ's has some good bands on in the week, and Le Pub has bands on a Thursday.
  • tj's is the place to watch up and coming bands....oasis played here although that doesn't say much
  • Tj's mostly though look out for Punk gigs at Le Pub soon. There are gigs in loads of places most nights of the week but winey indie gets on my nerves and thats what most of it seems to be
  • John Frost Square. You are bound to come across the regular busker
  • V3 on Stow Hill is good for live bands. Divine Comedy played there recently and lots of other famous names set to play soon!
  • TJ's is the only place.
