'''''Hanx!''''' is a live [[punk rock|Punk]] album by the band [[Stiff Little Fingers]], released in 1980 (see [[1980 in music]]). Originally intended for the American market to introduce the band before they toured there, it was subsequently released at a budget price in the UK as the band were concerned that a lot of their fans would insist on buying the album on import anyway for a higher price. Jake Burns remarks on the sleeve notes for the CD reissue that only "Johnny Was" came from the Rainbow Theatre show with the remainder recorded at the [[Aylesbury]] gig.
The title "Hanx!" is simply "Thanks" in the dialect of the part of Northern Ireland the band hail from.
