SILENT OBLIVION15 FEBRUARY 2008DEVIANT UK + NOVUS UK23 FEBRUARY 2008ROBSTOCK 2008 - 40 BANDS - 2 STAGES!!!EVERY WEEK:The Falchion is the NEW & ONE AND ONLY dedicated rock pub in the Stockton area, which is alt owned & run. Home to Persecution on a Friday night for over two years, when the opportunity of taking over the whole pub came up recently it was a chance just too good to miss – so here we are giving you somewhere to go every other night too!
As always, we’re happy to welcome any of the alternative crowd as well as anyone else who is out to have a fun time without any hassle. We’re just nicely far away from the High Street to keep a distance from the trendy bars but close enough to walk to if you’re travelling by bus (see map below).
Downstairs has just had a facelift and clean up (just in case you’ve been before!) and has a juke box and pool table - there’s also the courtyard with a canopy at the rear of the pub which also acts as our smoking area – no standing outside in the rain here!
Upstairs is our nightclub - home to Persecution and Asylum nights – it’s also available for hire for parties, events and even band practice! For more details contact us via MySpace or call in and see Ferg.
We’re always on the lookout for bands, so if you’re interested in playing just let us know.
We're just getting started so remember to keep checking back as this page will be updated regularly with details of what's happening at Stockton's one and only rock pub! But for now, why not just pop in for a drink and a chat, and maybe even make some new friends!

Anyone who can help us make The Falchion a huge success!!! Seriously - if any of you have any suggestions about events you'd like us to host or just everyday ideas to make the pub a great place to be - send us a message or come in and see Ferg.It would be great to see some new faces too - where is everyone hiding who used to gather at The Talbot, The Green Dragon, The Waterfront and (of course!) Adam & Eve's!!?? If you used to go to any of these places, you'll have a good idea of the type of vibe we're trying to create.
