    Situated on the opposite side of the river to all the trendy bars and clubs on Riverside is The…read moreWaterfront. A grimy, run down building with a lackluster interior and a floor that your feet will stick to all night long. But don't let that put you off! During the week it is used as a music venue and although you'll never see the likes of Oasis play there, it does attract great up and coming bands. It also offers local bands a chance to showcase their talent with nights organised by local promoters. At the weekends the venue is used as a club that generally caters for the 'alternative' Norwich scene. Friday nights tend to alternate each week between 80's and 90's theme, which may sound cheesy but the DJ's actually play decent music from those decades. It is nothing like your typical Flares or Reflex nightclubs. Every Saturday in the main room downstairs is a club night called Meltdown, which tends to play alternative music catering for the indie/emo/punk/rock/dance genres. Up stairs there are two rooms. One is a small café bar, which is great to as a chill out area as there are plenty of tables and chairs located around. The other room is larger which has a different set of DJ's each week will be a different themed night. Anything from New Electro to Britpop to Heavy Metal or Rap. There's rarely any trouble in The Waterfront and you'll always make a new friend each time you go there. Overall, it's a great night out with a quality friendly atmosphere!

    Despite the dated look and the sticky floor this is probably the best place to catch bands on their…read moreway up. With a capacity of about 750 it feels intimate even when full. Bar is not too pricey, possibly due to catering to a student crowd. Check what is on and give it a go.

    Red Rooster was my first music festival experience, and one that'll stay with me forever. The…read morelegendary C.W Stoneking closing the event with his jungle blues was the perfect finish to a weekend that was just bursting with Americana, showcasing the best of Britain but also featuring several acts who'd travelled from much further. Americana leaves room for real variety, meaning there was an eclectic mix of sounds at the festival; blues, bluegrass, country, soul. We arrived on the Thursday evening and pitched our tent. At this point Suffolk's Euston Estate was at it's quietest, so we were able to find just the spot for us. We went for out of the way and just under a tree. - Home for the next few days! And what a lovely location. The festival was just in it's second year when I visited and still feels very much small and homegrown. The festival's family friendly and there were lots of dogs and young children. As a result, it felt very, very safe. Due to its size, there were also several little quirks to be discovered on site: hammocks, a poker zone, camp fires...It made for quite the wander, and certainly gave the festival a unique feel. These sort of things encouraged a ramble and mixing with other campers, and, consequently, we had many a friendly chat with other campers by the fire. The low points were few and far between, but worth mentioning. The on-site loo situation could have been better. There really needed to be more facilities for the number of people there. - That's all I'll say. The street food vendors were awesome, although some had sold out as early as the end of the first night. By the last night, choices were limited. It was expensive, as expected, but the quality was high. All in all, I'm a big fan of Red Rooster and look forward to seeing how the festival will grow in years to come. It was most definitely worth our journey from Stirling to Suffolk!
