Default The music scene

Hey. This is my first post on here.
I'll explan about myself quickly before I ask what i would like to know.

I'm in my second year at college and along with the swarms of others, I'm looking at universities. What I'm looking at as my first choice is Aberdeen, it offers a great course.

However, sad as I am, I need to know about the music scene up there in good ol' Aberdeen. I live in north east england, and it's guna be quite a trek for me to go up north, and I quite simply need to have music.

so.
we finally get to it.

What type of music do you have up there? Do you have rock nights? rock clubs/pubs? I ask because I know nothing I'm afraid. Where I live we have a rather good Indie/punk/rock-in-general scene and I hate to give it up but Aberdeen is too far to return home for the weekends.

anything you can tell me about your music scene would be great.

Cheers

You'll be sorted - the scene is good here and we have rock clubs and pubs in the Moorings, Moshulu, Exodus, Drakes, Tilted Wig, Bassment and the like
