Just looking around, seeing what's what.

Which are the best venues in Shields to see original AND covers bands?

Is the Cellar Bar still running?

Try Atlantic on Sundays for covers bands, Monday nights in the deep bar downstairs for original stuff I think...The Maltings have started putting acousticy bands on...Annie McCarthy's have covers bands on most saturdays ...there's a buskers night on just about everyday of the week at pubs like the harbour lights etc....try the Office for covers and original rocky kinda bands...New Crown have bands on Fridays a couple of times a month....Not sure bout the cellar club, I've certainly never been....Hope that's a help :)

Out of interest, what music do you listen too?

Led Zep, Kate Bush, System/Down, Coldplay, Oasis, Allan Holdsworth, Pink Floyd, Yes, Radiohead, Kaiser Chiefs, Maximo Park, Benny Hill (Ernie and his fastest milk cart in the west) etc. I hope that can be of some use to you.
Some good stuff in there, especially Allan Holdsworth. :D
