    Could try Murphys on the quay, been a long time since I was in there but when it used to be the Hogs they had some good bands playing.I'd get in contact with Spraoi as well they usually have a few matal bands playing on the August weekend and as well I'd get in contact with Garter Lane.
    Unfortunately the music scene isn't what it used to be around the town,espeially for metal bands.Alot of younger bands find it a bit of a struggle getting gigs around(but I suppose thathasn't really changed much either).
    The midlands and Cork are still great for metal bands but if you really want to push the band I'd look to Northern Ireland, there's a great metal community up there and the bands support each other alot(helping each other getting gigs and promoting each other).Been a few years now since was in contact with any of the bands but I presume things are still the same.UNfortunately I don't have any cotact details for any of them but I suspect a bit of research into it could be fruitful.
    This site could be helpful as well

    mmm...forum on a saturday night is really the only place you'd find them, but it isnt really rocket/metalhead specific. And of course, it's over 18's only.

    Just checked your profile, I see youre 16... er, to be honest, nowhere really. You could hang around Red Square/The Book Center, but er, theyre mostly minimoshers.
