I remember the name Shabby Tiger so I did a Google. One of the ex members of Shabby Tiger, Tony Baker, has appeared in Peter Kay's Phoenix Nights as a member of the group Half A Sixpence. He actually wrote all the music for the series.

cheers yerself,i believe a guy called(endy) was in the band who moved to wales years ago,but not 100% on the nickname.they were a great local band best since REV BLACK and theROCKIN VICARS in my opinion.
