2009:

Darlo Bands for Darlo Fans 2 managed to raise £500 for the Darlington Supporters Trust
The money will be presented once the new football season starts. Thanks to everybody concerned particularly all the bands who played, everybody who came down, Richie, Phil and the Forum. Cheers.
All funds raised to go to Darlington Supporters Trust Due to the ongoing uncertainty surrouding Darlington Football Club, it's been decided to donate all the money raised from the upcoming fundraiser to Darlington Supporters Trust for safe keeping. Hopefully nobody minds. Skiver's organise Darlington Football club Fundraiser
![]() New Bass Player joins Skivers
In case anyone at our recent gigs was wondering what had happened to Si, he's had to unfortunately leave the band to concentrate on maths, mountain climbing and matters of philosophy. Best of luck to the boy but he has been capably replaced by Ste Tinkler (pictured above in April in Seen, Darlington). An old friend of the band, Ste has slotted in well to the Skiver's set up. Expect more gigs and new tunes later on in the year. 2008: Nightclub EP Launch sells out

Cheers for coming down! Thanks to everyone who had a look down for the EP launch on the 29th - it was a top night. The Forum in Darlington was sold out and The bulBs, Ferric 90's and DJs were all dead smart. Pictures to follow. Launch night for Staring Down announced:
AT LAST IT'S HERE - THE SKIVER'S STARING DOWN EP After a long wait the Skiver's new EP will be released at the end of September 2006. The four track CD will be launched at The Forum in Darlington on 29th September and then will be available from Skiver's gigs throughout the coming year or via this web-site.

More news shortly........... Skivers to play The Forum's birthday party Darlington's Forum is two years old at the end of May and as part of their birthday celebrations, Lifetime Skiver have been asked to do a special birthday gig along with other Forum regulars, The Shining. Some other smart band is playing too. It all happens on Saturday 27th May, doors 8p.m.Only £3 in! E.P. launch put back Predictably the new Skiver's masterpiece isn't going to be released as early as once thought. The impending matter of the World Cup, to be honest, isn't going to help matters either as very little will get done in June apart from watching football. The wait will definitely be worth it... Work to start on new Skiver e.p. Lifetime Skver are due to start recording their new e.p. this March. The as yet untitled collection of four new songs will hopefully be released in May.
