Personal comments
It's Sheffield, home of the amazing Arctic Monkeys! The best venue to listen to Indiemusic is the Leadmill - just a five minutes walk - or the Plug. I also enjoyed going to pubs. Also regular visits to the students union 'the Hubs'. But private parties at fellow students were the best.
