Is Sheffield still a good place to see live music?

Transcript

00:00Do you think Sheffield's still a good place to see live music?

00:04Yes, I do. It's great because there's, you know, all sorts of classical music on,

00:12particularly at the moment in March and April, you know, and onwards.

00:16But I used to come to City Hall a lot as well for the symphony concerts.

00:21I don't do that so much, but I come for the recyclers,

00:24you know, smaller things that happen, Upper Chapel and, you know, smaller sort of things.

00:33So it's still a good place?

00:34Oh, a great place, and it's infinitely more exciting than Doncaster.

00:38I'd say so, yeah. I've been to Leadmill, but I've heard that they're closing down,

00:47so I've not really been watching live music in Sheffield recently because of it.

00:54It's mainly because just, like, personally I don't, like, get on with or, like, look for live music to go to.

01:03Do you think it's a reasonably good place to go and see live music?

01:06Yeah, I'd say so, yeah. Yeah.

01:10I think it is, but I think people are going less out from live music.

01:15I feel like there's certain areas, like Kellam Island, but it depends if you venture out there.

01:20And also, it's more of a student city, in my opinion, so there's less live music in the heart of the city.

01:28I feel like if you want live music, you have to go a bit further out.

01:33Well, not as much anymore. Sheffield's always been booming for music.

01:37We've had our traditional, like, niche scene around here and things like that,

01:41but recently I've not seen nothing about no live music.

01:45No, I'd go to Leeds. Sheffield is still a bad place to go out for music.

01:49Why's that?

01:50You're just asking for trouble.

01:52Just don't feel safe?

01:53You're just asking for trouble.

01:55Yeah, yeah.
