Abstract: In spite of its provincial image, Clermont-Ferrand is a city with a strong activity in underground musics. During a long time, local authorities were not interested by this type of culture and economic sector, except to forbid it to avoid noise in city centre. Since the beginning of the 1990s, their attitude has changed and they have built musical amenities. Nevertheless, these ones are no adapted to size and finances of local groups. Many musicians are poor and precarious, living for playing only. They are looking for contracts and subsidies; therefore, they have to play in good conditions to improve the quality of their music. However, useful amenities exist in declining neighbourhoods only, and they are not interested to go there. One of the most important issue is facilitating mobility, exchanges, and creating two complementary areas, one for training and the other for musical shows. © 2008 Lavoisier, Paris.
