Happy As Larry are five friends from the south of England. Owen and Darren went to school together and grew up as great friends. They went into business together and formed Unit 6 rehearsal studios - http://www.unit-6.com - Through the Unit 6 rehearsal facility they met many new musicians. First they met a bass player, Greyum. He introduced them to Steve and shortly after that Stone, who had been rehearsing with his other band - Templeball (Not the Scottish band), stumbled drunkenly into the Happy As Larry camp and offered to sing for them. A year went by and Greyum left the group but he was very quickly replaced on bass by Woody, a guitarist who had just moved to the area. A couple of months later they went in the studio and here we are now.....

Story behind the song
Darren had a nice sounding riff. Stone had written some words about bad luck cuz he was at a low point at the time. The rest of the band jammed it with them and Never The Jackpot was born.
Lyrics
Never The Jackpot I go from bad to worse like I have got a curse It's dragging me down, it's dragging me down I'm leaving what's left behind, I'm leaving my mind Luck ain't on my side, luck ain't on my side I'm on the losing side, making me deride The things that hurt my pride so I keep it all inside So if it's gonna happen it'll happen to me If it's gonna happen I know that it will be The times that I fall down So if it's gonna happen it'll happen to me If it's gonna happen I know that it will be The times you're not around I've never hit the jackpot, don't think I will again 'Cuz in the end all you've got is your friends To keep you sane, make sure you go the right way And save the pain, save the pain
