If you want a student type night out go to Oxford Road and do a pub crawl. There's a couple of places have a live band. Manchester After Dark :: Oxford Road Area Guide

For more of an Indie night out, hit The Northern Quarter area of the city centre. Plenty of places with live bands.
Bars in the Northern Quarter Manchester

If you have a bit of money and want a more laid back night out, go to the Castlefield area near the old Roman fort. Pubs and Bars in Castlefield, Manchester

A really great night out is the Gay Village in and around (C)anal (S)treet.
No threat of violence and straight friendly. http://www.manchesterbars.com/location-***village.htm < Homophobic link...just google!

Avoid the Printworks and Deansgate, unless you want your head kicking in. The Locks area is OK though, but expensive.

You could always pay homage at the spiritual home of Northern Soul while you're here and visit The Twisted Wheel club on Whitworth Street. Twisted Wheel - Manchester UK -Northern Soul
