"In Cambuslang, South Lanarkshire, Scotland,
there is a back road known locally as Piggery Brae,
it runs between Greenlees Road and Cairns Road.
One evening our group were discussing a name for the band...
Fergi digressed and
spoke of his courting days at the PiggeryBrae...
PIGGERY BRAE....now there's a name said I ....
we all laughed.....and PiggeryBrae it was!"
