Vicious White Kids

Vicious White Kids were an English punk rock band from London that formed for only one concert on 15 August 1978, staged at the Electric Ballroom in London. The former bassist of Sex Pistols, Sid Vicious, was the lead singer. It was his final concert in England, as he died of a heroin overdose the following February.

Recordings of the concert, which included covers of Frank Sinatra's "My Way" and The Stooges' "I Wanna Be Your Dog", have been released multiple times: in 1991 on DeLorean Records, in 1993 on Receiver Records, in 2002 on Castle Records, and in 2007 on Sanctuary Records. The 2007 release includes an interview with Matlock and Scabies.

Formation
Vicious was due to fly to New York City and needed money, so after bumping into ex-Pistol Glen Matlock one day, he decided to play a gig with him. Matlock, who Vicious had replaced in the Sex Pistols, saw it as an opportunity "to show there was no animosity" between them, he later commented. Matlock recruited his Rich Kids bandmate Stella Nova on guitar, and The Damned's Rat Scabies completed the line up on drums. Vicious' girlfriend Nancy Spungen sang backing vocals, but after hearing her at rehearsals, Matlock made sure her microphone was not plugged in on the night of the gig. The name of the band came from an amalgamation of Sid Vicious, The Rich Kids and Rat Scabies' part-time outfit The White Cats.

Music Style
The Vicious White Kids are described as heavy punk rock, much like Matlock and Vicious’ former band, the Sex Pistols.

Vicious White Kids; Live at the Electric Ballroom
The band performed in the Camden Electric Ballroom, a two-storey concert venue in Camden Town, London, England.

The Vicious White Kids performed several cover songs by musicians and bands such as The Stooges, Ramones, Frank Sinatra, and The New York Dolls. They also performed the controversial Sex Pistols song "Belsen Was a Gas".

Other songs performed by the band during their concert included “Chatterbox” by The New York Dolls, “Tight Pants” by Iggy and the Stooges, Frank Sinatra's “My Way”, Eddie Cochran's “C'mon Everybody” and “Somethin' Else”, and Dave Berry's “Don't Give Me No Lip”. The Vicious White Kids also performed “I Wanna Be Your Dog” by the Stooges and “(I'm Not Your) Steppin' Stone” by the Monkees.

Disbandment
The Camden Electric Ballroom concert would be the one and only complete concert that the Vicious White Kids would perform as a band. Following the concert, the band became almost completely inactive in the music world. They would permanently disband when Spungen was stabbed to death in a hotel room in October 1978, and Vicious was arrested for her murder. Vicious died of a heroin overdose in February 1979.

After the Vicious White Kids broke up, Matlock, Scabies and New all moved on with their careers. Matlock has performed with a number of other artists, including Iggy Pop and the London Cowboys. Scabies has played in various bands as a drummer over the years. New was minimally active in the music business after the band broke up, and died of cancer in 2010.

The band's one concert has been released and re-released many times. It was released in 1991 by DeLorean Records, by Castle Records in 2002, and Sanctuary Records in 2007. The band's one concert has been fully released onto YouTube, as well, with a 31-minute concert video of the band's performance.

Netscape 8
This needs to be updated for Netscape 8.0 - anyone? --The Human Spellchecker 19:22, Jun 3, 2005 (UTC)

 * It is already covered in Netscape Browser. --minghong 08:48, 4 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Proposed merge
Please see Talk:Netscape/Archives/2012. – Smyth\talk 14:32, 12 July 2005 (UTC)

 * Instead of merging as your proposal, it would be better to merge Netscape 6 back to this article, since versions 6 and 7 are very similar. Anyway this is only my personal opinion. --minghong

 * Yes, I agree with Minghong in that at least Netscape 6 and Netscape 7 should be covered by the same article. There is not much point in having distinct entries about them. --Jonik 22:15, 15 August 2005 (UTC)

 * I have removed the merge tag. It has been around for long enough.  It seems to me that it was a confusion based on the fact the netscape is both a company and a web browser by that company.  In any event it doesn't make sence to merge just one of the five web browsers by netscape into netscape.  Either merge them all or none.  Jon513 11:29, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

A Technical Inaccuracy
Perhaps this is pedantic, but the section on Netscape 8 is technically incorrect in that it says the browser has the IE Trident engine "built in". The engine is actually a part of Windows, so I think it might be better to say that Netscape 8 "accesses" or "interfaces with" the engine. Sergeirichard 10:01, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

article title
Why is an article titled "Netscape (Gecko based)" only about Netscape version 7? Netscape 6 and Netscape Browser are both based on Gecko just as much as Netscape version 7 is, so it makes no sense. The problem is probably due to the various names that have been used: I can think of 2 good possibilities to fix this: Herorev 03:03, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Netscape Navigator - standalone browser
 * Netscape Navigator - suite
 * Netscape Navigator - browser included in suite
 * Netscape Communicator - suite
 * Netscape 6 - browser
 * Netscape - browser version 7
 * Netscape Browser - browser version 8
 * This article retitled "Netscape 7" or "Netscape (version 7)" and the article with the title "Netscape (Gecko based)" be a disambiguation page.
 * Netscape 6 and Netscape Browser merged into this article.

Rumoured regeneration
The only evidence I see supporting everything said in this section is an informal poll on a forum which contains a total of seven votes. It doesn't seem notable. If I post a poll to a forum about whether BMW should market a flying car and it gets some votes, do you think that's notable enough to add to the BMW article? -- Schapel 18:54, 6 February 2007 (UTC)
 * I'll look into it. That is the wrong poll - this is the official one on Netscape's community support board by Jay Garcia, one of Netscape's current employees apparently, who also owns the UFAQ. I believe there's an announcement next week. I'll change the citation, and see how it goes Marbles 19:04, 6 February 2007 (UTC)
 * If you change the citation, refer to the poll rather than a "rumor", and limit what's written in the article to statements verifiable by the citation, I think that'll be okay. Jay Garcia is a Netscape employee and does run the forum, but he seems to have posted the poll as an individual, not as an official Netscape representative. I still don't see any word from Netscape, just an informal poll. -- Schapel 19:21, 6 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Sure will do Marbles 19:45, 6 February 2007 (UTC)
 * I am removing this section as the entire Netscape browser/suite is now no longer updated and will be no longer supported come March 2008. Therefore this rumor must have been false or based on a fact no longer used in AOL, so the section is worthless. I will put it back, as a "was a rumor, proven false" section if people think it's noteworthy. Ryaxnb (talk) 20:00, 3 March 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Drew Bledsoe

Bledsoe > Brady compared to Manning > Osweiler

 * http://gazette.com/article/1564203 - Ramsey blog: Injury opened door for Patriots' Tom Brady, too

Bledsoe Bowls?
I don't know what the original author meant by a Bleedsoe Bowl, so I can't edit that part. Otherwise I think this article is doing ok now. Jekoko 19:22, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)

It means that, since Bledsoe played for both teams, there was a little bit of an extra rivalry, just like the "Tuna Bowls" (referring to Bill Parcells) in the late '90's, between the Patriots and Parcelld' Jets.User:WinOne4TheGipper

Copyright for this photo?
This latest addition is very nice, however, I would like to be sure that the photo used is copyright-free. How can we check on that? I'm putting a tag on this until we are sure. Jekoko 21:08, 19 November 2005 (UTC)

Mention of Brady
While 66.67.253.51 has a point that this sentence praises Brady, it is necessary to the text in order to lead the reader to the understanding that the team made it to the Super Bowl that year but without Bledsoe's help for virtually the entire season. I am reverting the text. Jekoko 20:44, 25 November 2005 (UTC)

New Picture
Shouldn't we get a picture of Bledsoe in regular uniform rather than in throwback uniform? Zorgon 03:21, 5 January 2006 (UTC)

Okay, why do we have a picture of him in a Buffalo Bills uniform now? That's even worse. Zorgon 01:37, 19 May 2006 (UTC)

Bledsoe Bowls Revisited
It has been a while since Bledsoe played for the Bills and these 6 games do not seem to hold significance any longer. I am going to remove the secion and results from the article. --After Midnight 0001 23:40, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

one of the NFL's oldest quarterbacks
"At 34, Bledsoe is becoming one of the NFL's oldest quarterbacks"

I revomoved this statement one of the NFL's oldest quarterbacks is too open ended at what point do you stop age 36, 35, 34, 33, etc also there is this from nfl.com
 * "Vinny Testaverde of the Jets became one of the five oldest quarterbacks to start a game in the NFL since 1966 -- Steve DeBerg (ATL), Warren Moon (KC), Doug Flutie (SD) and Earl Morrall (MIA) are the others. But George Blanda threw a touchdown pass at the age of 47 in 1974 and completed a pass at the age of 48 in 1975" ▪◦▪ =Sirex   98=   02:27, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

Best Season?
Is 1994 really Bledsoe's best season? Does this section really have any significance, I'm sure Bledsoe has had better seasons but no other NFL Athlete has a section like this.Demon Shaman 20:39, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

Not only that, but it says that both 93 and 97 were arguably his best seasons. how about 98 99 00 01? who wrote this. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.233.37.104 (talk) 00:21, 24 September 2007 (UTC)

What if...
Why is this section even in the article? This isn't a forum to speculate on how things would turned out if some event had or hadn't happened. It's a weasel statement: "Historians theorize..." Keep this stuff out of Wikipeida.

Bledsoe was *not* benched because of "injuries"
From the article: Recently, Drew was the starting quarterback for the Dallas Cowboys until he was replaced by Tony Romo in Week 8 of the 2006 season because of some injuries.

That's hilarious. Parcells ran out of patience with Bledsoe's poor decision-making. I'm going to change that line once I find an article to reference. 160.39.214.116 20:19, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

Article cleanup: What we need to do
This article was fairly light before, but today's edit by User:Imexpertandurnot has added quite a bit of information. Unfortunately, the tone of the new section is totally inappropriate. This article is going to need some work that I don't have time to give it right now. Here's what I see needing done:

 * 1) Rewording of article with an emphasis on neutral point-of-view and encyclopedic tone.
 * 2) Breakup of monolithic "Best season" section into three different sections covering his time with the Pats, Bills, and Cowboys.
 * 3) References and footnotes.

Anybody who wants to help out, please make notes under this heading as you go, and feel free to add objectives to the above list as you see fit. Let's whip this article into shape soon. A Train take the 22:03, 16 December 2006 (UTC)

what the hell happened?
this article keeps getting shorter and shorter, this guy was a number 1 draft pick, holds many records, led a team to a super bowl, has been around for well over a decade, and he has one paragraph? People just keep deleting more and more stuff, all his stats are gone now, no mention of his career before the cowboys. Just one paragraph.

New Format
I cleaned it up and seperated bledsoe's career into his seperate teams, added college info, and career stats year-by-year. Also added my photo of Mo Lewis' collision with Bledsoe. I can't think of a more significant hit in NFL history. Michigan10 02:26, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

Drew Bledsoe & Super Bowl XXXVI
I am pretty sure that Drew Bledsoe went onto the field and threw down a few passes as the TB rested on the side. Never the less, he still has the Super Bowl ring from that game, shouldn't it be added on as "Career Highlights and Awards"? TheAsianGURU (talk) 00:43, 23 January 2008 (UTC)

 * Brady took every snap in Super Bowl XXXVI. You may be thinking of the AFC Championship Game, where Bledsoe made his only appearance in a game for the Patriots after his return. Fumblebruschi (talk) 20:55, 12 May 2008 (UTC)

Revisiting this topic. Bledsoe's info box lists him as appearing in Super Bowls 31 and 36. The Pats lost 31, but won 36. Just by being on the roster, is Bledsoe a Super Bowl champion? Or no because he did not play during the game? Byron Leftwich is listed as a Super Bowl champion, when he was backup to Ben Roethlisberger in SB 43. Same with Jim Sorgi for SB 41. So why not Bledsoe as a champion in SB 36? I think we should do this. Any comments? --MikeUMA (talk) 16:56, 3 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Yea, he should be. Damon Huard, is listed as a two-time Champion despite being the back up in 36 and 38.  Hot Stop talk-contribs 19:08, 3 October 2011 (UTC)

Accomplishments neutrality problems
Drew's Accomplishments section has multiple neutrality problems. The bullet points in the section are perfectly factual, but the paragraphs below, and the sub-section of "The Run For The (Hall)" is quite biased. All of this content should be re-written. --MikeUMA (talk) 20:02, 18 May 2011 (UTC)

Deleted bullet point saying Drew was the ONLY QB in NFL history to throw 600+ attempts 4 times. Drew Brees has thrown 600+ attempts 7 times. Tom Brady, 4 times. 2014-02-03 — Preceding unsigned comment added by 140.172.24.1 (talk) 21:23, 3 February 2015 (UTC)

Jennifer Higdon

Jennifer Elaine Higdon (born December 31, 1962 ) is an American composer of contemporary classical music. She has received many awards, including the 2010 Pulitzer Prize for Music for her Violin Concerto and three Grammy Awards for Best Contemporary Classical Composition for her Percussion Concerto in 2010, Viola Concerto in 2018, and Harp Concerto in 2020. Elected a Member of the American Philosophical Society in 2019, she was a professor of composition at the Curtis Institute of Music from 1994 to 2021.

Biography
Higdon was born in Brooklyn, New York. She spent the first 10 years of her life in Atlanta, Georgia before moving to Seymour, Tennessee. Her father, Charles Higdon, was a painter and made efforts to expose his children to different types of art. He took them to various exhibitions of new and experimental art that gave her her earliest exposure to art and helped her to form an idea of what art was. She also developed an interest in photography and writing at an early age. Despite her early introduction to art, she received very little exposure to classical music in her home. Instead, her early musical education came from listening to rock and folk music from the 1960s. It was not until high school that she joined concert band, where she began playing percussion. At about the same time, she picked up a flute her mother had bought, and she began teaching herself to play using an old flute method book. She played flute in her high school's concert band and percussion in marching band, but heard little classical music before her college years.

She studied flute performance at Bowling Green State University with Judith Bentley, who encouraged her to explore composition. Because of her lack of formal training at an early age, Higdon struggled to catch up early in her college career. She said of beginning college, "I didn't know any basic theory, how to spell a chord, what intervals were, and I had zero keyboard skills. I basically started from the very, very beginning. Most of the people I started school with were far more advanced than I was, and I had an extraordinary amount of catching up to do." Despite these challenges, she established herself as a hard worker and a resilient student, even when she faced discouragement from some professors.

During her time at Bowling Green, she wrote her first composition, a two-minute piece for flute and piano named Night Creatures. Of playing in the university orchestra, she has said: "Because I came to classical music very differently than most people, the newer stuff had more appeal for me than the older." While at Bowling Green, she met Robert Spano, who was teaching a conducting course there and who became one of the champions of Higdon's music in the American orchestral community.

Higdon earned an Artist's Diploma from the Curtis Institute of Music, where she studied with David Loeb and Ned Rorem and taught the future virtuoso Hilary Hahn. She continued to demonstrate her fortitude and dedication by persevering despite a few graduate rejection letters. She eventually obtained both a Master of Arts and a PhD in composition from the University of Pennsylvania under the tutelage of George Crumb.

From 1994 to 2021, Higdon was a professor of composition at the Curtis Institute of Music, where she held the Milton L. Rock Chair in Compositional Studies. She has served as Composer-in-Residence with the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra, the Green Bay Symphony Orchestra, the Philadelphia Orchestra, the Fort Worth Symphony and the Music Academy of the West.

Higdon lives in Philadelphia.

Works and performances
Higdon has received commissions from major symphony orchestras, including the Philadelphia Orchestra, the Cleveland Orchestra, the Chicago Symphony, the Atlanta Symphony, the National Symphony, the Minnesota Orchestra, the Pittsburgh Symphony, the Indianapolis Symphony, and the Dallas Symphony. Conductors who worked extensively with her include Christoph Eschenbach, Marin Alsop, Leonard Slatkin, and Giancarlo Guerrero. She has written works for soloists including baritone Thomas Hampson, pianists Yuja Wang and Gary Graffman, violinists Nadja Salerno-Sonnenberg, Jennifer Koh and Hilary Hahn.

She wrote her first opera based on Charles Frazier's 1997 novel, Cold Mountain with a libretto by Gene Scheer. It was co-commissioned by The Santa Fe Opera and Opera Philadelphia and premiered in Santa Fe in 2015.

Her works have been recorded on more than four dozen CDs. Her most popular work is blue cathedral, a one-movement tone poem which she wrote in memory of her brother, who died of cancer in 1998. Premiered in 2000, it has since been performed by more than 400 orchestras around the world.

Compositional style and influence
Jennifer Higdon's musical background has influenced her in many unique ways. Her style grew out of her musical upbringing, which was characterized by much greater and earlier exposure to popular music such as the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, Simon & Garfunkel, and many other groups, rather than to classical music. As a result, she has described her own compositional process as "intuitive" and "instinctive", where she favors music that makes sense, rather than writing music that adheres to classical forms and structures. Popular and folk music were not the only early influences on her composition; the mountains and wide open spaces of her Tennessee home have influenced her style, and even helped bond her to George Crumb, who encouraged her to use nature as a muse.

Many of Jennifer Higdon's pieces are considered neoromantic. Harmonically, Higdon's music tends to use tonal structures, but eschews traditional harmonic progressions in favor of more open intervals. Avoiding specific key signatures allows for sudden, surprising harmonic shifts and modulations. Open perfect fifths and parallel fifths can be found in most of her compositions. She also often uses scalar passages to add melodic or harmonic context to the music. Her early background in percussion likely influenced her rhythmic style; her music often features complex, intricate rhythmic passages, even when melodies are lyrical. She also makes use of rhythmic ostinati which give motion to many of her works – especially her more rapid compositions. Some of her rhythmic and melodic repetition could be considered minimalist in nature.

In her vocal and choral works, Higdon works to emulate speech patterns and applies them to writing both the pitch and the rhythm of her melodies. She tries to reflect the mood of the text, which results in melodies that tend to have a more romantic sound. On the occasions where she has set non-English texts, she tends to use both the text and translation in the piece, allowing the piece to more effectively communicate its message.

Structurally, her music reflects the "intuitive" style that she composes by: Her music is decidedly sectional, but tends to have a natural flow – melodies often carry over bar lines, creating some motivic and sectional ambiguity. Many of her works begin with a sparse orchestration, and build in performing forces as a piece continues, creating variety and interest throughout a given piece of music. Higdon does not intentionally compose with a form in mind, but allows the music to unfold naturally.

Reception
The League of American Orchestras reported Higdon as one of the most performed living American composers, in 2008. "Higdon's music is lithe and expert", wrote Robert Battey of the Washington Post. "Jennifer Higdon's vivid, attractive works have made her a hot commodity lately," wrote Steve Smith of the New York Times. Regarding one of Higdon's most popular compositions, Blue Cathedral, Rowena Smith of The Guardian writes, "it is pure new-age fluff; undemanding, unadventurous tonality dressed up as a quasi-mystical experience by the addition of bells and chimes."

Among less favorable assessments, Andrew Clements in the Guardian gave a CD of Higdon's music a minimal one-star rating. He referred to the music as "American contemporary music at its most vacuous, a noisy mishmash". Tom Service, also in the Guardian also criticized Higdon's Concerto For Orchestra. He wrote: "The problem with Higdon's piece ... is that its flamboyant gestures ... function only as surface effects, without creating any real structural momentum." Similarly, though in a more positive review, Raymond Tuttle wrote that "even though the Concerto for Orchestra is not remarkable for its melodic content, there is so much color and brilliance in Higdon's writing ... that few listeners will notice."

Awards
Higdon received awards from the Guggenheim Foundation, the American Academy of Arts & Letters (two awards), the Pew Fellowship in the Arts, Meet-the-Composer, the National Endowment for the Arts, and ASCAP. In addition she has received grants from the Pennsylvania Council on the Arts. Higdon has been a featured composer at festivals including Grand Teton, Tanglewood, Vail, Norfolk, Winnipeg and Cabrillo.

She has won the Grammy Award for Best Contemporary Classical Composition three times. The first was in 2010 for her Percussion Concerto. The second was in 2018 for her Viola Concerto. That concerto was part of an album dedicated to her music on the Naxos label, Higdon: All Things Majestic, Viola Concerto, and Oboe Concerto, which also won the 2018 Grammy for Best Classical Compendium. The third was in 2020 for her Harp Concerto.

Higdon won the annual Pulitzer Prize for Music for her Violin Concerto (Lawdon Press), which premiered February 6, 2009, in Indianapolis. The Pulitzer citation called it "a deeply engaging piece that combines flowing lyricism with dazzling virtuosity". It was commissioned jointly by the Indianapolis Symphony, Toronto Symphony, Baltimore Symphony and the Curtis Institute of Music.

Hi Zbzdhbafr!

I want to work on this article and get it upto the standard it deserves. But I want it to be collaborative effort, one, because I would not know too much about the club history and other details, and secondly, because, well, its always more fun to work as a team! You seem to have worked on the article before, so would you like to join in? -Aabha (talk) 13:38, 25 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Thanks a lot! Well actually, I just realized that the "History" and "Embelm" sections in the article are copvios - straight picked up from the official club site. So these will have to be rewritten completely. I've asked some other users as well, hopefully we'll find someone who knows about the history more than the two of us. -Aabha (talk) 18:09, 25 December 2005 (UTC)

 * Hi Zbzdhbafr,

 * Can worked on the copyvio portions, paraphrasing them, so that seems fine to me now. Please do have a look at them and see if any improvements can still be made. Can you please go through the the details of the title wins, and see if they tally with those on the offical site list? Thanks. -Aabha (talk) 07:16, 26 December 2005 (UTC)

 * Hi! The Honours section looks much better now, and there was a real need of some more recent details, so good you added the Present section. Have a look at the article talk page. Also, do you think we can get a source for details like the biggest stadium, highest average attendance, etc? These are quite specific facts, so I think we should have some source for them. -Aabha (talk) 20:15, 26 December 2005 (UTC)

 * I'll do the table in the morning and you can have a look at it, if you like it, we can keep it. Don't get irritated. :) -Aabha (talk) 21:39, 26 December 2005 (UTC)

 * Please look at it and tell me what you think. -Aabha (talk) 07:51, 27 December 2005 (UTC)

Hi!

Glad you like it. Do let me know if you want a hand doing it for other clubs, or anything else for that matter. About the article, what else do you think we need to do?

By the way, you're not a member of the WikiProject Football..do you want to join in? We've just attempted to restart the Article Improvement Drive there. This is a weekly collaboration to improve football articles to featured article status. The drive had been defunct for a while, and I just decided to give it another shot. Do take a look at it. Though there are suggestions that we should make it fortnightly instead of weekly. Lets see how it goes. -Aabha (talk) 19:40, 27 December 2005 (UTC)

St George's Church, Leeds

St George's Church, Leeds is a Church of England parish church in the centre of Leeds, West Yorkshire, England. The church building is near to Leeds General Infirmary. It is a church in the Deanery of North West Leeds. Although based in the city centre, the congregation is drawn from all parts of the city, including some student congregation.

The current staff team includes the rector Lizzy Woolf, associate rectors Eve Ridgeway and Adrian Smith.

Services
Regular services at St George's occur at 10:30 am and 6:30 pm on Sundays with other activities throughout the week. The 10:30 am service is a large family congregation, with provision for children's ministry. The 6:30 pm service is a congregation aimed at students and young professionals, with a focus on biblical teaching and musical worship. St George's sets itself firmly within the Charismatic Evangelical wing of the Church of England. The other church in the parish of St George from 2021 is Holy Trinity Boar Lane which will be reopened a new ministry focused on weekdays city centre workers. St George's clergy also lead St Augustine's Church, Wrangthorn in the parish of Woodhouse and Wrangthorn through a shared benefice, where there is a particular focus on drawing a larger congregation from the large student population in the area. St George's is a resource church, tasked with growing the congregation at other churches by sending teams to plant churches. St Paul’s Ireland Wood had a team of 48 sent from St George's in January 2018 and small teams were also sent to St Paul’s Shadwell and St Peter’s Morley; there is a further plant is commencing at Bramhope St Giles from 2022.

St George's Crypt
St George's Church is known for originally founding the St George's Crypt charity, which works with the homeless and asylum seekers. The Crypt provides overnight accommodation and runs two hostels as well as charity shops, events and programmes to help people deal with addiction. The Crypt is now a charity in its own right, separate from St George's Church; although they still work closely together.

Church building
The church is a Grade II listed building, built in 1836–1838. Its spire was blown down in 1962 and replaced in January 2006.

Key dates
1836 A scheme was outlined for a new church to be built at the West end of the city. Money was raised for the building and a local architect, John Clark was instructed to draw up plans for a church of 'plain, bold style, free from ornaments'. As such, the design of the church comprised a nave and aisle under a timber roof, a clock tower, and a spire of 160 feet. The church was named St George's at the laying of the foundation stone by the then Bishop of Ripon, Charles Longley. At this stage, St George's was officially a chapel in the Parish of Leeds and remained so until 1868.

1836 Work started on the building. There was a slight delay as a decision was made to create burial vaults under the church as there was a general shortage of burial space in the city.

1837 The first curate, the Revd William Sinclair, an evangelical, was appointed and St George's became the leading evangelical church in the city. Since its opening, the reputation of St George's and that of its clergy, has been synonymous with evangelism. William Sinclair was officially known as a 'perpetual curate' of St George's because of the status of St George's within the Parish of Leeds.

1838 The church building was externally finished in April and was consecrated on 7 November of the same year. The total cost of the build was £11,000.

1839 A hurricane caused considerable damage to St George's and a rebuilding fund was set up. William Sinclair started St George's Day School.

1841 The painter Charles West Cope presented St George's with the sanctuary picture that is still in place today. Cope had been born in Park Square and had been approached by his friend John Atkinson, one of the trustees, to paint an altarpiece for the church.

1842 William Sinclair built St Andrew's (a chapel on Burley Road) as a memorial to his wife. This closed in 1958.

1847 He then built St Philip's near the site of the Yorkshire Post Building. This closed in 1931 when its Vicar died. The building was bought by the Roman Catholic Church and was demolished stone by stone and rebuilt in Middleton.

1855 The vaults and burial ground at St Georges were closed.

1857 John Blomfield was appointed to St George's. According to John Heaton, the son of one of the original Trustees, 'He was 'a small feeble-looking man' whose only gifts seemed to be the ability to preach evangelical sermons.

1868 St George's became a parish.

1873 Samuel Adams became vicar. It was he who bridged the gap between St George's Church and the parish church, thereby bringing a closer tie between the high and low church tradition in the city.

1880 Charles Lamb came to the church and was also appointed as chaplain to the adjacent Leeds Infirmary. When Charles Lamb left the church in 1887, the chaplaincy was taken over by Leeds Parish Church.

1881 A chapel, Emmanuel, was built to serve the northern end of the parish. This later housed the Anglican chaplaincy of the University of Leeds.

1882 By this time, three 'Day' schools as well as Sunday Schools had been established in the local area.

1886 Renovations were made to the church. A chancel was created to include the organ which was moved from its original location in the west gallery.

1887 Benjamin Lamb succeeded to the post of vicar.

1895 John Wright (later Archbishop of Sydney) - an "able evangelical" -  appointed to St George's and successfully raised money for some much needed alterations and improvements to the church.

1900 The apse, chancel arch and vestry were added. A pulpit and choir stalls were also introduced. This cost a total of £9,000.00.

1904 Walter Green was appointed. Sunday schools and church organisations were thriving and church attendances were high.

1915 Arthur Alston was appointed.

1918 Bernard Herklots became vicar. He travelled widely and, in 1927, exchanged livings with a vicar in Dorset, Douglas Adams.

1927 Douglas Adams, having taken over as vicar, found himself faced with internal church squabbling, including differences over the church school. He organised the first Sunday school trip which went to Boston Spa. He also dedicated the memorial chapel at St Andrew's Church, Bruntcliffe, Morley, Leeds to those who had lost their lives in the First World War.

1930 Don Robins was appointed and this was the beginning of a new chapter in the life of the church. Robins was a charismatic leader who had a remarkable effect on all those who met him. The most renowned and longest lasting aspect of his work was the opening of the crypt beneath the church. At first, St George's Crypt  was a refuge for men who had returned from the war and gravitated to Leeds in search of work but who ended up destitute. Since its inception, the crypt has offered support, advice and shelter to those people (men and women) on the margins of society and is still in existence today. Its work and its buildings have changed over the years to meet current demands and changes in society. Today, it is still a much respected Christian charity helping those with addiction and social exclusion problems.

1931 Don initiated the opening of a women's centre which provided food, clothing and opportunities for day trips for the poor of the parish. He helped set up Fellowship House where servicemen posted to Leeds could meet. Monthly meetings for families of prisoners of war were held. War widows and their families were provided with food and clothing. Under Don's leadership, church members were rallied to provide support for Estonians, Lithuanians and Latvians who had been brought to this country to work in the mills, and many of whom had been prisoners of war. Jobs were found for them and they eventually founded their own church.

1938 The Church School was thriving and an extension was built which also served as a church hall. The church flourished under Don Robins' leadership. There were Scouts, Guides, women's groups, men's groups and young people's groups. Parish residents were actively involved in the church, receiving and providing simultaneously. Don was an influential person in the city and was widely respected by both clergy and lay people. When he died suddenly in 1948, clergy from great distances travelled to his funeral.

1948 Tony Waite was appointed vicar. He was an inspirational leader who encouraged and developed the work of the crypt. He worked long hours and was a worthy successor to Don Robins.

1954 Faith Lodge, an annex of St George's Crypt was opened with the aim of providing 'sustained care in the environment of a home'.

1958 Raymond Turvey succeeded Tony Waite and became well known for his sermons and Bible studies. As a result of reorganisation of parish boundaries, St Andrew's Church closed and St George's took over its school.

1962 On 11 February, only a few hours after a congregation of 400 had left the building, hurricane-force winds dislodged some of the pinnacles surrounding the church tower. These crashed through the roof of the church causing enormous structural damage, amounting to £20,000. The insurance for the church did not cover storm damage and there was a distinct possibility that the church might be closed. Throughout the week, the debris and destruction were cleared and the congregation met in the church on the following Sunday for worship. Within two weeks of the damage, £2,000 had been pledged towards the rebuilding costs: the rest came from sources all over the country and the world, including one large gift from Bridge Street Church in the City of Leeds. There building plans were drawn up by Peter Hill, the diocesan architect. He included a narthex, male and female toilets and two meeting rooms. The cost eventually came to £26,000 and this was met.

1972 Michael Botting became vicar with a brief to encourage more families to come to St George's. In this he succeeded and when he left in 1984, there were 25 babies in the crèche and over 100 young people in Sunday school each week and St George's was recognised as a family-friendly church. Botting initiated and pioneered family worship services. The number of students attending the evening services rose as well. During his ministry, the church school closed and its main building was demolished, but the church purchased the extension which became known affectionately as TAC (The Activities Centre). Sunday school and other church activities were held in TAC.

1976 Regent Terrace, another hostel of St George's Crypt, was opened.

1984–1986 A two-year vacancy between vicars.

1986 David Hawkins (later Bishop of Barking) was appointed vicar. His creativity, love of art, music, nature and the 'element of surprise' was evident in all aspects of his ministry, particularly in communicating the Gospel.

1989 Due to serious problems with the church building, Hawkins' creative gifts were greatly used in re-ordering the church to provide a 'flexible style, ideal for worship, conferences, concerts and theatre productions'. The re-ordering meant a two-year 'exile' from the building and the congregation worshipped in St Michael's School and Trinity St David's URC Church. At this time, David also instigated the development of the TAC site facility, finally completed in 2006.

1990 A church plant in the parish, known as St George's Community Church, was established.

1999 With the pressure to implement new health and safety regulations, and the need to update the facilities, a complete refurbishment of St George's crypt was undertaken.

1999 St George's became a team ministry. David Hawkins became rector and the community church was granted district church status with its own team vicar, Peter Ellem.

2002 David Hawkins left to become the Bishop of Barking. There followed a year's vacancy.

2003 Jonathan Clark was appointed as rector.

2006 The steeple, removed in 1962, was replaced.

2010 St George's Crypt reopens following a £15m refurbishment.

2021 St George's takes on responsibility for the City Centre Mission based at Holy Trinity Church, Leeds. St George's works in a team of three churches, along with Holy Trinity and St Augustine's Church, Wrangthorn.
