Hidden behind the main part of
Sheffield's city centre is a music venue made of the stuff others can
only dream of.
Home to legends and
locals
alike, the Boardwalk is Sheffield's very own Cavern, a fifty year old
music venue that has seen some of the greatest acts in music history
pass through its doors, and is still going strong in the 21st century.
|
First, a little history lesson
for all you budding musos. Known at various times as the Black Swan and
the Mucky Duck, The Boardwalk has seen Genesis, AC/DC, the Sex Pistols
and the Clash (their first gig!), and more recently David Gray and Ryan
Adams perform onstage.
And it doesn't even limit
itself to one style of music - you'll find rock, blues, acoustic, heavy
metal, thrash metal, nu metal, country, folk, world music and anything
else you can think of. The Boardwalk is hallowed ground, and as such
deserves regular pilgrimages from anyone in Sheffield who wants to hear
great music.
The emphasis is still on
giving
Sheffield quality live music seven days a week. With an acoustic night
every fortnight, regular local unsigned acts during the week, as well
as more established bands on tours across the country, variety is the
key. |
