In 2001, Twelve years after the infamous classic Lords Last Stand at The Astoria Ballroom in 1989, when Stiv sacked all the other members of the band live on stage, Brian James and Dave Tregunna put together a new Lords line up, consisting of: Brian James - Guitar, Dave Tregunna - Bass and Backing Vocals, Steven Marque - Vocals, Jez Miller (ex-The Pleasure Victims) - Vocals and Guitar and Ozzy (Ex - Gunfire Dance) - Drums. They released the CD single 'Believe it or Not', featuring three new songs: "Baby Babylon," The Devil You Know" and "Hashashin." Spring 2002 saw them on the road, undertaking an extensive European tour . On the 19th April 2002, the band played The Underworld in Camden, London - the first London Lords gig in 13 years. They unveiled their new line-up and played a set consisting of Lords classics as well as their new songs. After playing their version of 'New Rose', which Brian wrote, he poignantly asked the audience to raise their glasses and drink a toast to Stiv Bators.
