OldMod67 21st Apr 2019 | | Live MusicSecret Affair @ The Brook (2019) | ReviewArriving fairly early, Squire's Anthony Meynell was popping out his merchandise and seemingly unrecognised. Free for a pre-gig chat (and sign my Sugarplum obi-band) he seemed keen to natter and answer questions on releases past and future. Kicking off on stage around 8pm, for a short support set,the line up tonight was Anthony Meynell - Guitar/Vocals, Jon Bicknell -
Bass/Vocals and Ray Lawrence - Drums
A really enjoyable performance,despite the short set. Songs,from memory and in no order:
Does Stephanie Know, Girl On A Train,My Mind Goes Round in Circles, I Know A Girl, The Face Of Youth Today, I Don't Get Satisfaction, Live Without Her Love, B-A-B-Y Baby Love, The Young Idea, Walking Down The Kings Road, Every Trick In The Book, Stop That Girl, Has Our Love Gone Bad, It's A Mod Mod World. Squire gave way around 8:45 for Secret Affair to come on.
Apart from an ageing Mod like me it must be encouraging for Anthony Meynell to see young fans there. My seventeen year old son recently bought the Squire Singles Album on vinyl (the only Squire record I didn't buy, as I had the singles) and came away from the gig with a signed Eight Miles High 45 too! Also got a sneak peak of the new LP due out. Fabulous night!
