Oh, cool, I have a flat literally across the road from mill street!
It depends on what you like really, there's clubs aplenty, and loads of proper pubs, live music wise: The Wardrobe across the road from college has jazz on tuesdays and funk and soul on saturdays, Hifi have similar kinda funk/motown/reggae things going on on a sunday, and cockpit and the well are good for rock/metal/indie stuff, there's loadsss!
