Re: It's just a drop in the ocean...
all of those are at rock city. or in the basement at rock city.

Junktion 7 is looking a promising evening, with a couple of good bands i think and some superb DJing in the bar downstairs.... -

if you follow the link to the website it gives details of all venues. old basford, sanzen, army of flying robots and legion of doom at the old angel gets my vote. \m/

Yeah Junktion 7 looks good too - I'd recommened Hinterland for some good rock n roll action. -

Come come come. As someone pointed out, ending the night in a pool of your own vomit having spent £20 on booze will have bought a fishing boat.
There's stuff going on at Junktion 7 too. The Magic Heroes are playing later in the evening and there'll be various DJs (possibly including me, though I promise not to play too much post-rock or free-jazz!). -
