Theres loads of places pal, but I haven't been in to see live local music for a while. Barfly on Seel street used to a be a good place for live music, as did Heebie Jeebies, Magnet and Baltic Fleet for acoustic. I used to just walk aound and look out for adverts. Not sure how strong the scene is now, but I've seen some truly brilliant bands just by chance.

Avoid anything and everything which is compared to The Beatles or giving you The Beatles experience. It will so incredibly bad. I wish we could rid the city of anything Beatles related. And I like them a lot.

The Zanzibar on Seel Street used to be great for live music. Not sure about now as I've not been for a while but may be worth checking out.

Here's the listings for the Zamzibar mate. Not sure how much is live music or DJs but might be worth a look. If live music is your bag then it would be best to avoid 99% of Concert Square and Mathew Street like the plague.
