Welcome to THE SHAY the sleeping giant of Halifax pub life.but not anymore as your hosts Barry and Lisa are determined to make THE SHAY the best live music venue in the area.
THE SHAY is situated on hunger hill next to Halifax Towns Shay football ground.
We have given THE SHAY a makeover and refurbishment and further improvements are planned.
We have chosen the slogan "THERE'S NO BIZ LIKE SHAY BIZ"
The slogan reflects the speciality in Live music and we intend to live up to it.
THE BEST LIVE MUSIC VENUE IN THE AREA.
Who I'd like to meet: ABOUT THE MUSIC
We are starting out with regular Saturday live band nights which will feature many of the regions top Rock and Covers bands and also some quality bands from further afield.
In the near future we hope to introduce other different types of music styles one of which could be a once a month punk night (on a Friday) so if your in a punk band give us a call or e-mail. We would also like to hear from anybody who would be interested in other regular live music nights like folk, country, rock and roll, jazz or other styles and tastes in music, anything really so why dont you pop down on one of our rock nights see what you think and have a chat.
If there's enough interest in other styles of music we'll introduce a music night to cater for it.
WE WANT TO SUPPLY THE LIVE MUSIC THAT YOU THE CUSTOMER WANTS.
LETS ALL MAKE THE SHAY THE BEST LIVE MUSIC VENUE IN THE AREA.
COME DOWN AND BE PART OF THE LIVE MUSIC REVOLUTION IN HALIFAX
