There’s often a difference between the date on which venues start selling tickets (as soon as possible because they want to make money!) and the date a gig is announced (often only when a performance contract is signed). It’ll probably be announced in due time – if not you’ll have to get your money back :)

Glad you got what you wanted Bobbi – they’re great items. On the old http://www.packetothree.co.uk site you can see all the sheet music I’ve collected at http://www.packetofthree.co.uk/html/sheet_music.html. What am I missing? Tempted surely!

Cheers, David! I owe you big-time! x (Had a bit of a splurge – also ordered “Cool for Cats,” “Up the Junction,” “Slap and Tickle,” “Labelled with Love,” and “Another Nail for My Heart.” The shop must have several copies of each because the listings still come up…so get in there, my fellow Squeeze fans!)

You might try the copy they have in the Sheet Music Warehouse Bobbi if you want one: http://www.sheetmusicwarehouse.co.uk/details.php?ref=5307
I’ve bought from them before and they were very reliable with quite good prices (and they have the others from the 70s and 80s too…

Ooh! Would’ve snapped this up (you always alert us to the best stuff, David). But it will only be shipped within the U.K. so it’s destined to belong to another. :-)

Comment on Squeeze to play Coachella Festival by Bobbi

Bobbi — Sat, 21 Jan 2012 11:53:34 +0000

Would love to go to Coachella to see them! Clearly the event organizers see a benefit to placing the best band in the middle of the line-up (They know people will show up/stick around to hear/see Squeeze. And afterward they’ll figure, “The day’s nearly done…might as well hang out for the rest.”)

I’ve been to over 30 Squeeze concerts – never seen a bad one. Seen Glenn and Chris a few times as well. I went 3 times on this tour. It was the first time I’d taken my 6 year old son – at the Kidderminster gig, I think it was that tour, but I definitely remember the Derby night. 4 of us went and we have a few sherbets to take in the atmosphere – not that you ever need to drink to get on a high at a Squeeze concert – the first 3 chords of Tempted is enough…… Anyway, when we got back we were still on a high, and drinking continued way into the night. (on a work day as well). For some reason, I needed dry toast for breakfast when my alarm went off a nano second after I got into bed. I put the bread under the grill, and put my head down on the settee while the asprin kicked in – When the Hangover strikes’, and I was awoken by the smoke alarm and charred charcoal toast!!!
