Keith & Denise Currie 22.04.10 14:54 GREAT GIG AT THE SOCCER BAR 2 WEEKS AGO. LOOK FORWARD TO ANOTHER ONE. DID YOU FIND OUT ABOUT SIMON, IT WOULD HAVE BEEN HIS GRANDPARENTS BUSINESS, MILK ROUND AND ICECREAM VAN. I REMEMBER THAT THE 2 BROTHERS SET UP THEIR OWN GROUP IN THE MIDDLE TO LATE SIXTIES - EARLY 70'S
THANKS KEITH N DENISE

Thanks for coming to see us. I've asked Si and will let you know. I appreciate your support.

Keith & Denise Currie 27.03.10 01:01 Unbreakable CD fantastic. Lyrics absolutely brilliant

Chris 07.02.10 22:56 Hi Stu
Chris here, Sorry we never made the 7th of feb gig at Birchwood. It feels like a sin to miss you lot givin it large but we Just never had the brass. we will try and make the next one and I am still hoping to get back to kendal this year and see Storm.
I have been back here loads eager to find out more about your Album?
 
Take Care All
 
Chris Michelle and Jimmy of course your youngest member LOL
Hello Chris and thanks for your message. Actually I wasn't at Birchwood yesterday having left the band. But it would've been good to catch up! Anyway, no doubt see you as a member of the audience at a future gig as I'm looking forward to seeing Jez and Lenny again. Al and I are hoping to do the video for the next single on Thursday so keep an eye out. Take care all.
Al 26.08.09 19:18 Thought you might find this amusing.....a review from Rate Your Music....
 
Sometimes an album comes along completely out of the blue which appears totally disconnected with any prevalent musical trends. By the time Pet Hate released The Bride Wore Red the flash in the pan that was the New Wave Of British Heavy Metal had been consigned to a very small filing cabinet in the music archives. Traditional metal still existed but even the relatively new purveyors like Iron Maiden had been around for a number of years. Instead, influenced by events in the States, metal was becoming lighter and more pop orientated. Logically it would have made sense if Pet Hate's appearance had been timed to cash in on this move but their sound was a pale imitation of both streams making the faith bestowed on them by their record company even more of a mystery. Dressed like a New York Doll's tribute band and sounding like a cross between a punk band who forgot to set their alarm clock and missed the genre by several years and a tired glam rock outfit sounds like a recipe for disaster and - guess what? - it most certainly is. It helps not a jot that vocalist Alistair Terry has all the dexterity of a stuffed cat or the rest of the band are as musically proficient as the sound of bottles dropping into a recycling bin, but there have been plenty of bands who could neither play or sing, yet who carved out a succesful career. So what is totally unforgiveable is the lack of any feeling for what they're doing - just a belief it's only for financial gain.
 
 
I'm a stuffed cat......priceless!!!
Well. What can I say? I never said we had any talent and where the hell is the financial gain..!? I'm just off to recycle the empty Dom Perignon bottles for inspiration.
Andrew Wilson 13.07.09 19:42 Hi Stu,
Great to catch you on Friday in Booties! Absolutely love the Single mate! Well done and keep Rockin!
Andy.
Thanks very much and it was good to see you and catchy up.
Paul Atkinson 11.07.09 09:13

How does typing 'BOWIE' avoid spam from f**kers like me! Lol! 'Ground control to Major Tom!' ;oP

Well, I'm surprised I even remembered you had a website, never mind actually visiting it, after last night's drunken debauchery! Haha! Well, send me your email address and I'll 'SPAM' you even more... with interesting stuff of course! Lol!

Good to see you last night and catch up over several reebs! Deffo doing 'Space Station #5' with ya... it rocks and is one of my all time faves....

Good luck with the album launch and I'll be buying it off iTunes when I get back from even more drunken debauchery in Notts tonight!

Right, need some meds and H20 to keep this hangover at arms length! Haha! How's your head? Hope to see you soon buddy! Paul

Good to see you and hopefully have something saleable on iTunes. Taking so long but free time on the horizon. Cheers bud.

Lee Howard 06.07.09 19:23 i watched you for the first part in bootlegers. your solo was cool but had to go bcoz i have t tubes in my ears and was starting to hurt so ill try and get to the heron to see you play
Martin Cash 03.07.09 12:25

Hi mate - see you are looking for comments re the album cover. In view of what you have said we CAN'T comment on there doesn't seem to be a lot to say!!!!

Oh apart from - gosh, fancy propping that obviously genuine well reliced Strat on the tree like that. Weren't you worried that such a valuable guitar might get damaged?

I'm not sure what my photographer and art director will have to say about that... Like me, the guitar is an original.

Lee Howard 22.06.09 11:32 OK MY INTERNET ISNT GOOD AT THE MOMENT SO I DONT REALLY GET YOUR MESSAGES IM STILL PLAYING THOUGH, GOING TO MUSIC COLLEGE. WHERE DO YOU PLAY MOST OFTEN SO I CAN COME AND SEE YOU PLAY?

Hi Lee. If my current gig list is correct (see the STORM page) we are at the Heron on 1st August and Bootleggers on the 11th September, so local for you. Good news about college. Keep in touch.

Jo Pritchard 18.06.09 21:57 Didn't know about this one Stu-pie! Next video maybe me and Martin can make our debut!! Fab, well done you and Claire (and anyone else involved!!) JO XX P.S. Olivia must take after her Mum.. what a cutie!

Cheeky! Good to hear from you. Will bear you in mind for the next video: make sure you know your G chord!

Lee Howard 13.06.09 19:40 i really want to know if i can have guitar lessons by you:)

Thanks for the request on YouTube but i'm afraid that I haven't taught since leaving Yamaha, otherwise I would gladly. Please don't give up. I wonder if we could arrange something, say when i'm in Kendal before a gig on a saturday afternoon.. Let me know if that would work for you.

Donna Fairer 16.05.09 22:08 hi boys. im not living in farnborough anymore moved back to kendal end of april 2009 with partner so we will have to come and see you guys sometime. u will have to let us know when your in kendal playing xxx
Benjie Gordon 15.05.09 21:08 Stuart,
Just saw you left a comment on my blog "The Hair Up There", which has both Pet Hate records on it. First of all, I just want to say I appreciate you not forcing me to take them down. But if you ever release them on CD and would like me to take the links down, of course I will. To this day, "Girls Grow Up Too Fast" is still one of my favorite songs...I can still listen to it and get the same shivers down my spine I did the first time I heard it at 15 years old. I saw that you have a new tune availabe on ITunes, which I'll go buy right now if its available in the ITunes US store.
Best,
Benjie Gordon
Thanks for the lovely comments. It's good that someone has nice things to say about the band. Thanks for your efforts in promoting the band. I genuinely appreciate it. (The single is on iTunes US store) Keep in touch - your views are welcome. Best, Stu.
Al 28.04.09 00:33

Have to say that the video kicks ass........
Rick Springfield July 4th...... Keith Urban October 3rd........
Life is good.

Lucky beggar. Make sure you give Olly's love to Keith.

Lorraine 22.04.09 21:16

Congratulations on a brilliant song and video. Loved every second of it. Well done to all of you. x

Stuart Wright 21.04.09 17:56 Saw the article in the paper so had to check the site out.
Cool site and good video.
Had a great chuckle seeing you with hair! lol
Janice M 18.04.09 21:00 Claire adore the Lyrics, Stu love the music but the star is Olivia. you are a star. Janice M
I agree with the last bit for sure.
Iain Douglas 17.04.09 13:52 Hey Stu, just checking your web site out after reading about your album in last nights Mail?
Never knew you were from Greenock!
Spent all my childhood Easter holidays up there, (53 Kelly St.) my Mother's from there!
Was up there only last month to pick one of her friends up...wot a shithole that place has turned into!
Nice site you got here, loads of info, will leave some feedback on yer album a little later.
I was gonna catch you's at the Kings in Barrow on the 1st but I'm doing a Charity night now that night sorry.
Take it easy and hopefully catch yourself and Storm sometime soon. ;)
Thanks for your kind words. My Gran lived in Kelly Street and Scotch pies from Aulds still make me salivate (my other Gran worked there well into her 70s - she was the only one who could be bothered to get up early enough!!) My Aunt lives round the corner. Small world. That's why I love Barrow because it's a home from home (apart from your "shit" comment...!) Maybe see you at Wellie if we can get a booking.
Eva Smith 17.04.09 11:43 I have just printed off Stuart in the news gonna sent mum and dad a copy. This news is absolutely bloody brilliant I am so chuffed for you both.
I can't wait for the album, do you have the lyrics for the single then I can sing along with it. Then when we come to see him play live and he sings unbreakable then I know the words. I am dead exited can't imagine how you all feel, things are looking up for you kid.
Take care and write more songs.
Thank you Eva - what more can I say?!!
Dave Collop 17.04.09 00:32

Keep rocking on mate. Brilliant song. Will catch up with you all soon.

Cheers mate. Hope all's going well with your business and see you soon.

Peter Hewlett 14.04.09 09:13

Hi Stu
Great talking to you yesterday. What a web site! (Now in my favourites) Great single and video. Barrow eh, had some great nights playing there. I will get to The Pub or The Longlands to see you if I'm home!!
Cheers
Pete

Thanks for your comments. Great to speak to you and good to know you're safe and well. I hope to see you at one of the gigs soon. Take care.

Martin Cash 11.04.09 09:00

Hi Stu, just purchased "Unbreakable" from itunes. Please don't spend the royalties all at once!!!
Martin
Cheers Bud. I'll cancel the Ferrari then shall I...?

Ian Currie 08.03.09 16:38 Well done Stu, a good song well played as usual. Video was moody but captured the feel of the song quite well. I suppose the blustery weather helped with Olivia in video as well brought home the essence of the lyrics.
Keep it up, I'll be your roady when you hit the big time; or make the brews!!
Thank you and thanks for the offer - Claire's coffee is crap!
Eva 01.03.09 17:20 WOW!!!
The single & video on youtube is bloody brill. I can't believe that I am great friends with a pop star & his song writer.
Can't wait till it comes to itunes will need a copy of this.
Hope you are all ok and keep those songs coming.
Take care
Eva
Martin Cash 01.03.09 09:21 Hey Stu - well impressed by the way you were able to respond to my comment on your website when I know for a fact you were in a van on the way to Harrogate at the time. Have you got one of these Blackberry thingies or are there more powerful forces at work?
Cheers, Martin
P.S. just listened to the single again - still brilliant!
Well I am so exceptionally talented of course....ok i'm rumbled. The "more powerful force" has been at work...!!
Martin Cash 28.02.09 21:09 Great to hear the finished single - can't believe you got that quality down in your cellar!
Video was amazing - really goes well with the song.
Just one question - was it really as miserable as it looked down there on the quay?
Congrats to Claire as well - not just for the backing vocals but for the whole website thing (and for putting up with you of course!)
What could you mean!?!? Thanks for your comments and yes it was as foggy as hell, though much colder unfortunately. The guitar went completely out of tune - good job it wasn't live sound!!
Rob 28.02.09 11:20 Hi Stu
Nice one. Great music and great video.
Now I know what you get up to in your cellar !!!!
It was so good I played it twice. Look forward to seeing you last weekend in March for our 3 gigs with Storm.
I will keep in touch even though I will be in sunny Spain.
Cheers
Rob
Cheers Rob! Enjoy Spain
Matt 09.02.09 02:46 Hey guys thanks for making my night at work fun tonight. Me and some friends will be attending your gig at the pub in Lancaster in march so we'll see you all soon.
Be cool. Matt from Ma Murphys

Thanks for checking out the website as promised. Hope you like the Storm CD - always good for a spare coaster! Look forward to seeing you at The Pub

John Nic 08.02.09 01:47 Just spent an hour of my life plus another 10 mins trying to get this to accept my entry 'a bit like the women in my life' Good to see your all still bursting ear drums. All you need to finish it off are some pyro's

Good for you bro. I can send you more pics if you want. Let me know if I should send them to Claire

Cheeky bugger! Yes please as I don't have many older ones. Also, do you fancy doing a video for YouTube at all? I know that you have a Spielberg streak and I haven't a clue. If you do, i'll send you the song for you to mess with as you decide.

Sheila 19.09.08 12:16 Hi Stuart,
Hope you enjoyed the Feeling - I thought it was a very good gig. Website is great - pictures are very clear. If I don't see you before have a good Christmas.

Thanks very much Sheila. The gig was great. Just busy with the new CD. Fingers crossed for the New Year. Have a good Christmas x
