It tended to be some glam, a lot of sleaze, and a ton of gothic. It really didn't come out bad. There were about 30 of us got together a couple of times a month and would hang out for hours, listening to music and doing our thing. i think about the only band all of agreed on was old school GnR. </p> http://glamrock.com/forum/glam-lifestyle-forum/how-good-is-the-rock-scene-in-your-city/page/2#post-37877 Tue, 22 Nov 2011 20:19:58 +0000 CptHero 37877@http://glamrock.com/forum/ <p>im from lichtenfels in germany<br /> we got the paunchy cats bar and its pretty awsome<br /> (last saturday deathstars were playing and in the middle of december i will see crashdiet and next year hardcore superstars) </p> http://glamrock.com/forum/glam-lifestyle-forum/how-good-is-the-rock-scene-in-your-city#post-37543 Wed, 05 Oct 2011 14:56:35 +0000 rachael 37543@http://glamrock.com/forum/ <p>rock scene in my town isnt good... ... <img src='http://glamrock.com/forum/bb-images/smilies/icon_cry.gif' alt=':cry:' class='wp-smiley' /> </p> http://glamrock.com/forum/glam-lifestyle-forum/how-good-is-the-rock-scene-in-your-city/page/2#post-37455 Sat, 10 Sep 2011 21:27:23 +0000 metalrulesall 37455@http://glamrock.com/forum/ <p>the bars around here dont have shit 4 rock or glam...dooleys u can put a loonie in the machine and play must about any song u want and every so often like once in a blue moon theyll have a tribute 4 like acdc or guns at jrs </p> http://glamrock.com/forum/glam-lifestyle-forum/how-good-is-the-rock-scene-in-your-city/page/2#post-37446 Thu, 08 Sep 2011 01:32:02 +0000 RETRO ROXX 37446@http://glamrock.com/forum/ <p>I'm from Newcastle, Australia<br /> Here is filled with crappy rap/dance clubs like everywhere else, we do have a few bars for rock but it's mostly screamo, hardcore, indie, all garbage really, we did have Hansel here though, they were glam and a good group of guys, i saw the last gig they did before the singer moved to Norway. </p> http://glamrock.com/forum/glam-lifestyle-forum/how-good-is-the-rock-scene-in-your-city#post-37444 Wed, 07 Sep 2011 13:18:27 +0000 metalrulesall 37444@http://glamrock.com/forum/ <p>it fucking sucks ass were i live...as far as i know theres no real rock/metal bands at all just a bunch of fuckin posers </p> http://glamrock.com/forum/glam-lifestyle-forum/how-good-is-the-rock-scene-in-your-city#post-37433 Fri, 02 Sep 2011 11:19:05 +0000 Cryformeandrubitin 37433@http://glamrock.com/forum/ <p>Sweden have a cool music scene, but unfortunately the most of the bands are thrash/metalheads. But i shouldnt complain, we have got some cool hardrock/glam clubs and pubs in my small town up north, and if you go south youll find even more of them. </p> http://glamrock.com/forum/glam-lifestyle-forum/how-good-is-the-rock-scene-in-your-city#post-37252 Mon, 01 Aug 2011 17:26:25 +0000 Kidneythief 37252@http://glamrock.com/forum/ <p>Ooo is that rock out.. night in Bristol still going? Would definitely check it out if it is!</p> <p>Got it pretty good in Cardiff compared to other places. As of this year there's now a rock bar open every day that does a few standard rock nights and then once a month there's Tombstone, classic rock, and Nice n Sleazy, glam/sleaze/rock n roll (but it's not great if you want to hear mucb beyond crue, poison, etc =/). Get plenty of tribute bands like Guns 2 Roses, and got Whole Lotta DC and a motley crue band to look forward to in the coming weeks.<br /> As for Wales as a whole there's a few proper local glam bands around. Got Hard Rock Hell in north wales that's had some awesome bands on their bill. Then there's a new festival coming next month called Steelhouse with Tigertailz and The Quireboys headling.<br /> So would definitely recommend a visit here! </p> http://glamrock.com/forum/glam-lifestyle-forum/how-good-is-the-rock-scene-in-your-city#post-37247 Mon, 01 Aug 2011 01:26:33 +0000 AceSteele 37247@http://glamrock.com/forum/ <p>I'm from Montreal Canada, and the scene here is ok. In the underground venues its more modern metal, deathcore, metalcore, that stuff, but once in awhile you'll get a good band not doing that. Despite that, there are alot of ppl into the music. We have an annual festival called "HEAVY MTL" (MTL representing both metal and montreal) and all sorts of bands play there, the crue even headlined the first year. I went this year and wore a shout at the devil shirt and everyone talked to me cause they dug i was wearing it haha. One chick even made out with me then yelled "GLAM RULES" as i was pulled back into the Girlschool pit haha.<br /> So it aint so bad, and my bands gonna get some gigs once our demos done, so we'll be glamminng the scene up a bit <img src='http://glamrock.com/forum/bb-images/smilies/icon_razz.gif' alt=':P' class='wp-smiley' /> </p> http://glamrock.com/forum/glam-lifestyle-forum/how-good-is-the-rock-scene-in-your-city#post-37241 Sat, 30 Jul 2011 16:41:47 +0000 KimWhite 37241@http://glamrock.com/forum/ <p>In Paris we've got quite the same thing as ROCK THE NIGHT except that it's called GLAM ROCK HEAVY METAL PARTIES, and it's every 2 months (but i'm still too young to go there, need to be 18 <img src='http://glamrock.com/forum/bb-images/smilies/icon_confused.gif' alt=':?' class='wp-smiley' /> )<br /> We also have a few glam bands that are really good, so i would say that there is a good rock scene in paris <img src='http://glamrock.com/forum/bb-images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' /> </p> http://glamrock.com/forum/glam-lifestyle-forum/how-good-is-the-rock-scene-in-your-city#post-35370 Thu, 20 Jan 2011 08:55:38 +0000 Glamrockerfs 35370@http://glamrock.com/forum/ <p>Chicago is a Hipster Mecca, so the House and Indie Music Scenes are King, theres a pretty big Heavier Metal Scene and obviously theres smaller scenes for just about any genre. For the RNR/Glam Scene there were obviously some of the veteran Rock/Glam Bands (Holland, D'Molls, E'Nuff Z'Nuff) that played out every so often and could draw. There were tribute bands/cover bands. And there was/is a crop of Young Gun Glam bands of which i played in two (Felon Love(played in), Hessler(played in), Loveblast, Down N'Dirty, Thunder Under Us, Black Actress, Black Saints, and our hometown Heros The Last Vegas). I think it amounts to about one serious new young gun glam band per million people perhaps. </p> http://glamrock.com/forum/glam-lifestyle-forum/how-good-is-the-rock-scene-in-your-city#post-35342 Tue, 18 Jan 2011 16:43:00 +0000 Poisoned 35342@http://glamrock.com/forum/ <p>There is HARDGLAMHEAVYROCK night on every friday at one very cool club. <img src='http://glamrock.com/forum/bb-images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> <br /> The guy who is DJing there, also goes to other clubs from time to time.<br /> There are like two glam bands around, but it's nothing quite serious (yet)... though I'd say one of them has potential.

Granted, alternative bands and country bands still outnumber glam/metal, but in the last year or so there have been a handful of bands coming up playing 80s. Crowds love it too. Our band will be an 80s tribute band, so hopefully there's still enough aquanet rockers out there for us...but yeah, the scene here has gone from dead without a pulse to alive with a weak heartbeat, lol. </p>
