Sheffield Uni

Hey all, not posted on here for ages, but here goes..

I've recently moved to the university of sheffield, and havn't yet been able to meet anyone with the passion for the Dance Scene.

If theres any new freshers out there, let me know as i wouldnt mind tagging along with someone to this coming crasher event at gatecrasher one, if anyone is interested. Also if anyone's interested, seeing sander kleinenberg at Plug.

Thanks

I'm not at Uni myself, but would reccomend checking with the students union to see whether they have a clubbing society.

Crasher's one of those places where you can go in alone, and come out with a crowd of mates!

If you can't find anyone to go with then just go on your own, you won't be lonely for long!!

You could try wearing an item of clothing that says something about the music your into e.g a t-shirt with a record label on. One of my mates is planning to try that one out when he starts at Reading Uni this year. I'm going to Crasher on the 30th all things going to plan, you're more than welcome to come along if you like

Shame it's not so visible to spot certain individuals who manage to hold a grudge for over 5 long years If only there was a Guinness World entry for it, I'm sure you'd win hands down.

it's not a grudge. I past caring about the events of that night years ago, but anyone who attempts to eat a glowstick should expect to have the piss took out of them for it for the rest of eternity.

hehe, fair point. I always thought you brought up the subject because you were still bitter, never mind...


Posted by Coup on Sep-22-2006 22:03:

lol no not at all. it's just provided unlimited piss taking ability.

that combined with the shoe, the poor girls top and anything else u wish to pick out from that nite provides unlimited ammo.

unfortunate for you tho

the liquid is really dangerous isn't it? I remember someone breaking a glowstick once and smearing it over his face but then it started burning.

Ouch! Lucky I didn't manage to bite through the plastic on mine but I would have deserved all I got had I managed it Would have provided Coup and Jimmy with a little comfort at least

no i think the liquid in glowsticks is non toxic
but i does contain small shards of glass so not advised to drink lol

Plug Fridays is good depending on the lineup. Urban Gorilla is on most weekends at various venues and is arguably Sheffield's most respected edm night.

www.the-plug.com
www.urban-gorilla.co.uk
www.degenerates.co.uk < board of people that tend to go out in sheffield. beware, high twat level.

cheers for the help, hopefully i'll see some trance addicts there

I've made friends with a mate on my floor, and it turns out his well into the dance scene, so we're both headin to gatecrasher saturday. Also i spoke to a guy last nite in kingdom nightclub, who was wearing a vandit t shirt, so i thought i hav to speak to him, and his heading to gatecrasher saturday, so a few more faces i may recognise on saturday

I know the Union had a UG night at the end of last month, Agoria and Lavelle i think can't remember was too busy writing my dissertation..

Im sure youve gathered that union has no other dance nights. Was never really sure what clubs really had a decent club night (trance mainly for me) apart from GC, at least if you want a fix it is more regular than it has been...and with JOOF coming on 11th November should be a deffo!

Not quite sure about other clubs like Adelphi or Pravda? in terms of what they play (that club has changed names more times than the years ive spent in sheff! lol) the other major clubs you wont get any decent trance music from what i have seen.

As your a Sheff newbie i would try out Planet Zogg, at plug next on 13th Oct i believe, especially if you want to don something rather extravagant lol (alas ive only been once, but will correct that this yr i hope). There are always threads about it so you wont miss it.

Fez/Praavda has jsut been bought by a speed garage gangster. I don't hold out much hope for the nights that currently reside there.

Ug/ttc and the Plug are pretty much the only places where you'll likely to hear good dance music in sheffield.

incidentally, James Zabiela and Rolando headline next months Ug @ the union. That's a fucking mammoth lineup.
