General:
The Boardwalk is a fairly small venue which is partially seated around tables and partially a standing venue (100-200 people).
The bands that play here are generally obscure or unsigned - unsigned bands nights make up about 1/3 of gigs Various gigs/events happen almost every night. Demo cds/albums/merchandise can be purchased on site. There is 1 small stage and 1 bar. (note - this venue is very smoky and VERY LOUD!!!!!! You may be made temporarily deaf for several hours). The unsigned bands nights consist of 4 bands, from most professional to least professional.
THE DEEP END
Where is it?
Its situated at Hillsborough tramstop, on Langsett Road, Hillsborough, Sheffield.
How much are the tickets - Varies.
Website - www.the-deepend.com
Where can i get tickets? At the venue - its a pub so the bands that play here are usually unsigned.
Age range - 14+
The venue is the back room of a pub. It's fairly large, and has a good sized stage. The building used to be a swimming pool, hence the name. Most of the bands that play here are local, and there are weekly 'turn up and play' jam sessions. There is ample seating and the stage is visible throughout the room. However, the seats and tables are right next to the stage so hardly anyone stands and there is never dancing when bands are on.
