Accrington Stanley - The Band
ACCRINGTON STANLEY - THE BAND
never heard of this lot before but they've been going a while apparently. Found this on their website. http://www.accrington-stanley.com/ <TABLE cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width="100%" border=0><TBODY><TR><TD vAlign=top height=54> </TD></TR><TR><TD vAlign=top height=243>  " The world of ACCRINGTON STANLEY has always been one of chaotic highs and dizzying lows. In between, there is a place where this disorder makes sense; where great music still moves mountains; where the spirit of the live event prevails in a world of disappointment and mediocrity. For this they have been adored and reviled in equal measure. Sometimes by the same person at the same time. Sometimes by someone else. These two fans and many others have worshipped at the altar of ACCRINGTON STANLEY. You too will be changed." -Sheldon Lazarus, Connex South East Gazette Wonder if Eric would let them on the pitch to do a set, or just sue their arse for infringement? </TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE>

Re: Accrington Stanley - The Band
And they're imposters! The real Accrington Stanley (the band) were formed in 1970 and existed for around 18 months. The line-up consisted mainly of local lads including "Wammy" who still gigs around East Lancashire and a couple of ex-Warriors. One of them, Dave Foster, has some pics of the band on his site.

Re: Accrington Stanley - The Band
There's also another Accrington Stanley band. This lot are from the Midlands and are, bizzarely, a Beatles tribute band! They've been going for 24 years and they say they took the name "after the football team had finished playing and disbanded."!!
http://accringtonstanley.net/ Do you think someone should tell them?

Re: Accrington Stanley - The Band
Then, of course, there's Stanley Accrington, the folk singer.
