The Stamping Ground Dance Festival was founded by Peter Stock, a former theatre & television dancer, theatrical director and producer as well as a dance teacher, adjudicator and administrator, in order to encourage male children and adolescents to experience dance and related performance skills. Stock described the 1997 Stamping Ground as "a gathering for all men and youths illuminating the athletic and creative qualities of the movement arts... questioning the ownership of the dance and challenging destructive ideas, fears and compulsory attitudes which inhibit the personal development of men." For the first several years the Stamping Ground event ran for periods of 10, 14 and 16 days and was attended almost exclusively by males, but by the early 2000s an increasing number of women and girls were beginning to take part. As of 2006 the festival had been shortened to two weeks plus an additional period of five days devoted to "professional development" courses and the gender balance of attendees was about equal.

His third novel, Stamping Ground (1975) makes a bleak, visceral return to Ulster. 'This is the first novel Leitch published after his move to England from Northern Ireland, and the dour erotics of his first novels give way to something altogether darker', wrote Caroline Magennis in her de-construction of the novel in the 2014 essay He devours her with his gaze.He devours her with his gaze, Caroline Magennis, Irish University Review 44 Charting the shifting perspectives of the novel, which involve sexual assaults and a cruelly distant, almost pleasurable observation of one assault, she says of Stamping Ground: 'Embedded in this ambiguous title, is the problem of how to make misanthropic novels about frustration and sexual aggression in the Ulster countryside saleable'. That was a problem she saw in the publisher's soft-focus cover art, rather than the novel.

These trains are the Glacier Express from Zermatt to St Moritz, and the Bernina Express from Chur via Samedan and Pontresina to Tirano. The most frequently used motive power on the Albula Railway is the modern Ge 4/4 III class of electric locomotive, which is also in service on the Vereina line. The Albula Railway was once the main stamping ground of the Rhaetian Crocodile (the Ge 6/6 I). The two remaining locos of this class, and the similarly historic Ge 4/6, still operate today at the head of not uncommon special trains. In contrast, the newer RhB locomotives have not achieved the popularity of the Crocodiles.

The V class was soon to be seen on many parts of the VR system, although the heavily-graded South Gippsland line seemed to be a favourite stamping ground, as were the lines radiating from Maryborough and Bendigo. The locomotives were also employed on excursion trains to the hills east of Melbourne during the holiday periods, and Upper Ferntree Gully would always have a fair number of the class running there. They were also seen in the Yarra Valley − indeed it was a V class that hauled the official train on the opening of the Warburton branch line in 1901. The locomotives were typically American in their design and construction, with bar frames, overhead equalised springing and very spacious steel cabs.

Magennis found little that was soft in the storytelling, a narrative 'wherein hierarchies of power, for better or usually worse, are played out in the sexual arena'. The book also figures in George O'Brien's The Irish Novel 1960–2010, a year-by-year study of Irish novels, where Stamping Ground features between 1974's Gone in the Head by Ian Cochrane and 1976's The Stepdaughter by Caroline Blackwood. The Irish Novel 1960–2010 by George O'Brien, Cork University Press, 2013 There was no softening of subject-matter in his next novel, Silver's City, which waded deep into the muddle of Loyalist terrorism, confronting Protestant paramilitary forces and far from idealistic paymasters and focussing on the conflicts within the conscience of 'Silver Steele', a freed 'hero' of the struggle confronting a new brutality outside his prison. It won the Whitbread Prize (1981).

However, with a Canadian frontman, Runrig began finding new fans in Canada and the United States. In 2001, Pete Wishart, the band's keyboard player, left after being elected Member of Parliament for the constituency of Tayside North for the Scottish National Party. In the 2005 election he was again elected, this time for the new constituency of Perth and North Perthshire and again for the SNP. Brian Hurren stepped in to take Wishart's place in the band. Wishart has been re-elected in each subsequent general election, albeit with a very slim majority in 2017. The 2001 album The Stamping Ground was seen very much as a return to form after the lacklustre In Search Of Angels (1999), but 2003's Proterra divided opinion. In August 2003, Runrig played their 30th Anniversary concert on the esplanade at Stirling Castle, celebrating 30 years since the band's formation, and including visitors from previous line-ups, as well as guest artists including the Glasgow Islay Choir and Paul Mounsey. Runrig played their first U.S. concert, a benefit for the charity "Glasgow the Caring City", on 4 April 2006 at the Nokia Theatre in New York City.
