THE MOTHER OF ALL GIGS (THE SEQUEL)
CROSS KEYS, MORLEY
Styckleback performed what must have been the most outstanding gig of the year. The band gave two high quality sets that you will find hard to surpass on the local live circuit, taking Styckleback up to the highest level of supurb bands the area is lucky to have in its midst.With a new powerhouse of a drummer at the rear of the band Styckleback seem to have endless energy to unleash on the rock scene public. After 7 encores and playing into the early hours of the morning this was by far the best, loudest and mental gig I have ever seen Styckleback perform. What a night to take with a sharp intake of breath at the finish.

COMMENTS FROM THE ROCK OF THE NORTH CONVENTION
"Must be the most energetic band around and really put everyone in an advanced state of euphoria."
Tony of Cas
"Styckleback were superb, they were tight, energetic and kept the dance floor full throughout there set"
There performance side of things has developed resulting in a cracking overall package.
Dave from The Erics
"The much anticipated Styckleback hit us right between the eyes playing a great mixture of rock over the ages with energy and skill"
Steve Lally (Rock of the North Supremo)
"Really enjoyed there energetic set"

ANOTHER DOUBLE
15/10/07 11:14
Two gigs over last weekend, Fri
5 October at the New Inn, Morley and Sat 6 October at the
Fox, Thorpe Willoughby, brought another double success to
this talented 4-piece.
The New Inn offered plenty of room for the Bands' set up and same for the revellers dancing. Always a good night here and the crowd went home happy. Especially with the viewing of "High Powered Howard" indelibly inked rear Upper Torso towards the end.
The same display lasted for much longer encouraging the others to follow suit and received wild scenes at the Fox, the following night. A really great atmosphere was established throughout Stycklebacks' 3 set gig, finishing well into the early hours of Sunday am. A warm welcome too for Ann and Barry who sang "Country Girl"
Next up Sun 14 October Boot and Shoe, Ackworth at 6 pm. Gonna be a great one here
See yall there

HELL OF A SEPTEMBER
07/09/07 13:23
Covering 8 gigs throughout September
is one hell of a run for Styckleback. The Band "kicked off"
1st September at Maguires in Leeds, a fun night turned into a
"Full Monty" from the veteren entertainer Simon. The mind
boggles !!!
Swiftly onto the following night saw the band perform (Sun 2nd) at the 3 Horse shoes, Headingley. A new venue for this 4-piece and the night remained lively, entertaining and glowing. We were all rocking late on this sunday evening.
Sat 8 Sept is a double header at 1pm The Bootfest festival near Ackworth an outside gig with the big boys' Bands' (T Rex etal......). A few hours rest, then off to Otley Rugby Club (private )

Great to see the boys doing there
stuff at this pub. A first time appearence in North Leeds. The
revellers swelled in numbers as Styckleback powered their way

AMAZING !
14/05/07 11:06
Fri May 11th, a last minute gig at The
Bar Vida, Selby, bought out a good response from the revellers who
were interested to see who this band were. Tucked away in the small
town centre of Selby, the locals, expecting the usual Friday night
party were treated to 4- piece Styckleback.
"Amazing" , was High powered Howards first words from the raised stage at the number of people who had come along. Two and a half hours later, by 11.45pm the locals had witnessed the best of Styckleback and wanted M O R E !! The bands regular followers exceeded at least 10% .
Well done at travelling so far on a miserable night !!

Always an excellent response from the
revellers when at Maguires (Sat 21 April). A packed house of
Styckleback followers rocked, danced and had fun for 2 and a half
hours.
This 4 piece always at high energy sang over 45 songs, with Damien drumming at speed and singing so forcefully (watch out Cozy!!!).
Admirable to see new faces, sure they left feeling happy and will be (Styckle) BACK for more. U2 D&C!!

Another great night at the Fox - What a crowd and what a four piece band! Its safe to say we are leaving Styckleback in safe hands. Loved the new songs and thanks for inviting us up on stage we really enjoyed it. Also thank you to everyone for there good wishes and yes we are going to Portugal, just tying up loose ends like selling the house. We have bought a ruin in a forest and our next trip over there will be to clear a patch for our caravan which will be home for the next twelve months (and the rest!)
You'll know why when You see the pictures.
Once again keep on Rockin guys we'll see you in a few weeks.
Love from Ann and Baz xx

There was non of this at this pub in Thorpe Willoughby (Sat 14th
April)
Stycklebacks Foxy routine was to slip at least 6 more classic songs in a fantastic lively night. It ended at 2am. We were all rocking and it certainly was "ALL RIGHT NOW". A small room but with a big following raised the roof

A good evening was had by all at this
popular venue in Ackworth (Sun 11 March). The Boot n Shoe had all
the ingredients that provide for an arousing atmosphere, a raised
stage with excellent lighting, a sound system that was clear and
crisp, a lively crowd and as usual a hard working band that belted
out at least 35 songs. An additional 3rd set thrilled everyone.
Land lord Les behaved himself, was fair and helpful,Styckleback
WILL BE BACK in 4 weeks.

ROUND-WHICH-WAY?
05/03/07 14:34
The Roundhay Pub, not far from the
Park hosted the bands next gig (fri 2nd March)
A first visit for this 4 piece, response was not known, Styckleback played to their customary best, but had difficulty in reaching out to the revellers simply 'cos the shape of this venue, five large areas, shaped pentagonally was well away from the band. Poor Damien was "Drumming away" , away from the rest of the band. It could be said that 120 social drinkers heard the music, around 50% think round-which-way hey? Great to see the usual band of loyal followers . Better advertising display needed next time for amore interested response here
Keep pushing on Damien,Kev,Jason and Howard

thanks to all the band for an absolutely stonking night for my

having a certain kissogram/strippogram nurse on my mind. All the
very best to Ann and Barry on their new life abroad. Already
looking forward to the next Fox gig on 14 April. See you then,

Thanks again to you all

We
couldn't have asked for a better night for our final gig and
we'd
like to thank Mark for allowing us to share his birthday party. The Fox
has always been our favourite venue and the fantastic crowd have never
let us down with their enthusiastic appreciation for our efforts.
Thanks to everyone who has supported us from our humble beginnings
especially Al (let us really have it!)and Sim and the many friends we've made
along the way.It has been a dream come true for us, we never thought
we'd achieve so much at this stage in our lives but it has been the
icing on the cake to be so successful and we have loved it.
The band - what can we say except thanks for a great time. For all the
ups and downs, the tantrums (and there have been many), the fun and the
bond we all share, it has been an unforgettable journey which we will
carry with us for ever. Thanks guys x
If you're ever in Portugal you may just see us singing for our supper in
the local bars and the sound of 'Country Girl' wafting through the
countryside as we get the Portuguese 'jumping'!!
STYCKLEBACK LIVES ON - Good Luck Kev, Jay, Howard and Damien XXXX

Previously gigging at the Fox, Thorpe

for sat 23 Dec and were treated to an electric
night. Long haul to Barlow proved to be a great night.Nestling
between Goole and Snaith, Barlow welcomed the Band, a Full house
(est 75), cautious and watchful, yet responding with rapturous
applause loosed up and danced to the 35 songs well into the early
hours. A great venue, excellent acoustics and lights in a real Xmas
setting

Hi all, missed
the Maguires gig (sat 25/11) by all accounts was another good
night.
Two weeks later, the December rush kicked off with the New Roscoe gig (fri 8/12), what a night,well attended n rockin 'till late. A late late booking for the following night at the Spinners Arms (sat 9/12) saw the Band appear in Dewsbury/"Oshitt",sorry Ossett. The Landlord was as usual in good "spirits" and requested Styckleback for the opening night of fun and thats what he got.
Next up is the Ringway,Horsforth (sat 16/12), a gig ALWAYS buzzing
See y'all there and paying homage to Anne n Baz for their consistent efforts in bringing joy to the Band followers. They Depart soon for warmer climes.. Alan, "Lets 'ave it now" is also joining 'em.

15th October at the Duck and
Drake
17/10/06 20:34
Somebody made a "cock up" at the Duck
n Drake (15/10) and Styckleback had little time to deal with
the problem.
Their appearance slot was reduced to a 20 min turn around, usually the customary 90 mins or so and a late previous night "gig" in Selby.
In true dedicated fashion the Band played to an ever increasing audience on this late sunday afternoon and were treated to many great songs.
A steady band of Rockers growing at every "gig", next up Maguires (28/10)
See y'all there

Hi Ann,
Just wanted to say a massive thank you to you and the guys for Saturday night. It almost made it worthwhile being 40!!!! I hope you enjoyed too.
I'm sorry that the crowd didn’t get into it a bit more - the geography of the pub didn’t help but if it's any consolation everyone who I talked to thought you were fantastic and many of them are hoping to see you at the Fox on 4 November (as are me, Stuart and the girls).
Anyway again a massive thank you to you all and we'll see you on the 4th at the Fox.
Sue
ps - Say hi to Damien from the girls!!!!

WHAT A NIGHT
(30/9), tremendous. Venue, Golden Fleece pub. Full house, lively,
brought out by Styckleback, gave 3 encores. Pubs' manager demanded
the bands return.This cluster of talented, tuneful musicians
excelled and were responsible for chaotic dancing. Get to see this
Band at some point

Started early,
finished early. The crowd at the Brewery
Tap (29/9) showed no real interest or enthusiasm for this
honest, entertaining bunch of Guys. A few lively local
characters apologised to the Band and begged them back on
another night, " A SATURDAY night next time", a
reassuring vioce bellowed out in the corner.
Come and support this great Band and raise the roof

Friday 1st September ... Styckleback
kicked off with the usual frenzied pace, including 6 new additions
to their excellent array of songs. Pity only a handful of diehards
turned out, about 40, (not my calculation) at the White
Stag, Leeds. Still worth watching and toe tapping.
That was First up....next up is the following night at The Cross Keys, Morley

Thank you for the great gig last night
in the Fox Inn.
It was a fantastic night as usual and we had a really good time.
It was as good as ever and nice to see Jay with you.
Loved the set including the Tourists and Quo's Paper Plane, missed Basketcase and Going Underground.............but what a great start to Xmas!
Sorry we had to leave just before the end, but my sister's babysitter was threatening to send out a search party.
Thanks for the wine-nice surprise.
Have been checking out your new website and it's excellent.
Like the photos taken in the Fox in September but who's the strange woman with the drinks?
Hopefully it won't be too long till you come back to rock the pub again. Thanks again.
Bye
