RE: BRITISH OAK GIG 15th December

A massive thanx to everyone who came to see us at the British Oak last night. Another fantastic crowd made it an awesome night. Although we provide the tunes, it's you lot that create the top atmosphere. You're getting better every time!! THANX!!!!
Pics from this gig will be posted soon.
As soon as we'd finished playing, the pub manager was out with his diary wanting to book us again. Friday 11th January 2008 it is!!
I promised Baggy we would do him a dedication for his birthday. As no-one brought a camcorder, we had to record "Gotta Gettaway" on a phone. Click on the song title to watch.
Thanx again to all who were involved & we hope to see you at the White Swan, Dronfield on Friday 21st December!

Saturday 15th December, British Oak, Mosborough, Sheffield

We're nearly there now and as it seems like ages since our last gig, we're all buzzin & raring to go. There will be at least 3 new ungigged songs added to our SLF covers set and maybe even a 4th depending on how Saturday's rehearsal goes. Wait & See and Beirut Moon will also be staying in there too.
Hope to see some of you there!

A great night at Whitwell


A good turnout at the Boot & Shoe, Whitwell on Saturday 17th November. Although it took the crowd a while to get into the swing of things, once the sound of "Go For It" kicked in to introduce the second half, (all SLF songs) everyone began to liven up. Two new songs also got their first airing at a gig in the shape of Beirut Moon and Wait & See. Pics from the gig are also on our Myspace page now. Video clips should also be posted within the next week or so. A big thanks to Colin & Damian for arranging the night and also thanks to everyone else who turned up to see us. Many new faces there again and we hope to see you all at some of our future gigs.
HANX!!

Band History

The origins of "Nobody's Heroes" date back to the mid-nineties, when founder members Tim Pearson & Andy Levick played together in the 3-piece outfit "Reckless". We mainly played covers of SLF & Greenday songs in those days, but even then, it was always the aim to eventually become more SLF oriented. After 1 gig though, rehearsals stopped and the drummer moved to America.Tim and Andy didn't meet up again until early 2004, but decided to have another crack at getting things going again, under the current band name, taken from the title of a classic Stiff Little Fingers Album. Again we were planning on being a three piece band but once we found a drummer, we decided to bring in a second guitarist to help "fill out" the sound. Our first attempt with a second guitarist was unsuccessful for a couple of reasons but the end result was that Tim's son Scott was given a chance to see how he fitted in. Scott had been brought up listening to the type of music we played so we thought he would be ideal for the job providing he could play the stuff. Backing vocals were also a bonus! We played a few gigs around Sheffield including The Boardwalk and things were starting to take off again. Then, the drummer decided to concentrate on other things and decided to call it a day.It took us around 10 months to find a suitable replacement and eventually we found Nigel, our current stick man! Within a couple of rehearsal sessions it became clear that Nigel fitted in perfectly, not just as a drummer but also as "one of the gang".That's where we're up to at the moment. Our first gig with our present line-up was in August 2007 and we've played regularly since then. Bookings are coming in on a regular basis and we're making new friends wherever we play. This, along with our regular crowd of friends & family makes every gig an ace night out with a great atmosphere.
