Tom 13847 Posted May 9, 2007 Author Share Posted May 9, 2007 yep, half hour on the Train to Leeds. Much better night out and reduced risk of twattish locals. Load of shite. Sheffield is a far safer and better night out than Leeds. Anyway you could go to the Boardwalk, DnR bar, Devonshire Cat for decent beer. All friendly. The Howard is never any bother and is next to the train station and about 5mins walk from the Leadmill. The club nights are usually very good in the Leadmill too. You usually get in 'free' after a gig. Plenty of students about too! Cheers man i might have a look, Do you know what time gigs in the leadmill usually finish?

The gigs finish between 10:30 and 11 usually then the club nights start. Plenty of places about. The Globe just up from the Howard is canny aswell and you get student discount at the bar.

The Fish 8989 Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 Ignore Fish, T-Keith. Remember he thinks both he and Leeds are posh making stuff up again Gram? surely you'd have learnt your lesson by now? I've never claimed that Leeds was posh and I'v e never claimed to be Posh myself. I've stated I lean towards the upper strata of the middle class... but I wouldn't say I was posh. Gram is just blinded by some bizarre affection to Sheffield which borders on the fetish iyam. and he's blatantly seething that I dare to cast aspersions upon his favoured Yorkshire town. p.s. I do think Leeds is great :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No better. Too much hassle there, Sheffield is far more chilled out and better nightlife. No particular affinity with either tbh but Leeds just has little to offer.

I'm out a lot and have yet to be at a loss for somewhere new to go in Leeds. No matter what kind of night you fancy I'd reckon you could find a club/bar/pub with that theme in Leeds. The venues are decent, from the bigger Leeds Met and Leeds Uni rooms, to the more intimate Jospehs Well and Cockpit style night. The bars are what you'd expect in any major city these days, the standard Vodka Revolution and Living Room stuff, but some cool little pubs like the Angel do well also. I'm not trying to sound like tourism officer for Leeds, but I'm honestly surprised you think Leeds has little to offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did my Masters there.Leeds doesnt have a venue anywhere near as good as the Leadmill. Thats a fact. The Cockpit is ok. The Corn Exchange area is utterly pretentious at night but not too bad during the day. The bars that are decent are miles apart which is a pain in the arse. It does have some ok places and I have visited it a lot. Just as a group we always have far better nights in Sheffield. None of us are local to the area but we all work here.

ChezGiven 0 Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 (edited) For going out in the early 90s there was no competition, Leeds by a country mile. Back to Basics, SOAKs / KAOS at the corn exchange and Up Yer Ronson. Best nights out in the whole country, nevermind Yorkshire. Sheffield had the Arches and that was it. Nowadays i wouldnt piss on the street in either of them. Edited May 9, 2007 by ChezGiven Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tooj 17 Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 Cannot stand Sheffield like fucking hate the place (a bit due to I never liked it and the scenario to go with it) but I've never been out in Leeds so really can't comment unfortunately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wykikitoon 16656 Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 Talking withput my rose tinted specs on but Leeds pisses its great northern cock all over Sheffield. Having working many times in Sheffield and been out a many times in Sheffield, apart from Gatecrasher its shit. I would rather goto Barnsley than Sheffield! Now thats a good night out!
