Welcome to UrbanAlternatives!
Review We support young alternatives (aged 16-25) to get involved and give something back to the scene

As well as this website we run events and activities in Manchester and Birmingham, and soon in Preston too!

Most of what we do is planned and run by young alternatives.

Right now we're looking for people to review gigs for the website
(we also have lots of other things that we need people to do)

Normally the best review each month
wins a Twenty Pound Ticketmaster Voucher
but for Give It A Name,
we'll give a voucher for the best review of each band!

Write Your Review
Then you want to post your review :)
It's a good idea to look at what other people have posted
and maybe read some reviews in magazines, papers, online, etc.

Common things to include are
Background on the band
The line up, the rig, the lighting.
The venue, getting there, how did you feel?
Atmosphere through the gig, did they talk to the crowd, etc
The set list - you need to give some idea what they played!

After that you can be as creative as you like
lots of bands are as famous for their fans and
what people say about them as for their music!
