On the turntable tonight at Tyger Towers. John Sykes loved the Beatles and would entertain us in rehearsals by ripping out Beatles riffs. 🎸

John Sykes rolls up his sleeves to begin his first ever recording session with Tygers of Pan Tang. Location - Guardian Studios, Pity Me, Co Durham, UK. Spellbound demo sessions.

A big microphone for a big guy 🤣

Our first headlining UK tour began 45 years ago tomorrow. Excited were we? You betcha 😻

Yay - 45 years after supporting Saxon on the ‘Wheels of Steel’ tour. 👍

A nice welcome in Mexico!

Mexico - quite a few in 😁🤘

So … Huw went whale watching whilst we were in Mexico and saw these two beauties 😳

Friends reunited!

Well I got there okay ... Mexico ... c'mon you lot ✈️🤣

Happy … until we missed our connecting flight 😩

Mexico here we come!

We will be on our way to Mexico shortly. But what to put in the set out of this collection?

45 years ago John Sykes made his ‘official’ debut with us a the Reading Festival, playing a Gibson SG! 🎸

45 years ago.

Step away from the records Jack!

So we are off to France to play on Friday. France gave a fantastic welcome to our then new guitarist Fred Purser back in 1982 . He had just one week to learn John Sykes' guitar parts. Try that budding guitarists 🎸👍Photo taken in the French countryside on that tour.

So we have contributed to the Metallica covers album. But ... what could Metallica cover from our fairly significant back catalogue? 🤔Photo from our acoustic set at Maid of Stone festival taken by Steve Christie.

Coming November 2025 - Metallica tribute album! Wonder why they asked us to be part of it 😆

Francesco! Master of the frets captured by Steve Christie at the Hammerdown festival.

Look very, very carefully and you can just about see the club where it all started for us 😂. Whitley Bay from the air ✈️

Hammerdown Festival last week. A masterclass in organisation! 👍😁🎸

Question is - do we do more acoustic shows?

Andy Scott from The Sweet with Robb and Steve Mann from Michael Schenker's band at Maid of Stone last weekend. Steve was of course the only other guitarist that we considered in auditions when John Sykes joined the Tygers.

The boys were back in town at Maid of Stone! Original Tygers drummer Brian with Robb. So great to see him. Stix, Kix and a bag of Trix 😁

Today!

Today!

Today! 🎸

Oh no ... stage invasion last time we were at Maid of Stone Festival. Hope it doesn't happen this Sunday when we perfom our first ever acoustic set. Photo courtesy of Fraser Allen.

Brighton. In the summer. Tygers of Pan Tang. What's not to like? 😎☀️🎸https://buytickets.at/hammerdownfestival/1310406
