The Leadmill
« on March 31, 2022, 06:06:33 pm by German Rover »
The Leadmill in Sheffield have been given a years notice of eviction. A cornerstone of SY entertainment threatened. Seen some amazing bands in there over the years and am going to see Sea Power in a couple of weeks in there as well.

Inspiral Carpets the night after my ex left me was a particular highlight.

That'll be a massive blow to Sheffield.

Sheffield Council surely can't allow this , it brings far more to area than flats

Inertia. Have a listen if you've got Deezer or Spotify. My lad is the drummer.

I've had many great nights in the Leadmill, not just bands, I used to go to their club nights too, Graeme Park used to DJ there... All so ago.

This would be a huge kick in the teeth for Sheffield, surely it can't happen?

They say Patsy was used to rubbing up to big Knobs  ;) ;)
Pun intended BST, couldn’t resist.

Sexual harrassment, it’s never too late to report it

Dominic Madden is the one responsible for this (Londoner, shock). Turning a successful independent venue into another chain  :facepalm:

Seen many bands there over the years. The last being The Killers just as they were breaking in the Uk.
