I was at this show. Now on the original Packet of three page it says “Extra show without Blondie” Well Blondie” did play this show as well. It was original supposed to be on the 17th of November but because of one of the last ever Scotland England football matches they decided to postpone the show so people could still see the match.

Now it was a fantastic show as always and a highlight was Take me I’m yours. In the keyboard instrumental bit on came a Scots guy in a kilt playing the bagpipes. It was fantastic but the guy didn’t like what he had played and said “That was bogging awful” I was very disappointed that Chris was not at this show. He had decided about a month before not to go on the American tour for there CD Domino and had gone into the Priory for some Re hab. Glenn had the audience who were mostly there to see Blondie eating out of his hand. Thing was though every time he played a track off of the current Squeeze CD Domino Glenn kept saying “And that’s another song from the latest CD Domino currently not available in the foyer” I kept wondering why they wouldn’t have copy’s of it in the merchandise stall.

Then a few weeks later by going on the official Squeeze web page called Planet Squeeze I found out why Glenn had been saying this. It turned out that in the time between the date the show in Aberdeen should have been and the new date he had gone to see Chris at the Priory and Chris had asked for money for the tour and Glenn had been so mad at this because he hadn’t turned up that he decided to leave Squeeze.. I was so shocked when I found this out and up until they toured again in 2007 I had the very sad oner of seeing the very last show Squeeze played all be it with out Chris. The Show was fantastic but way to short as they were just the support and it kind of ruined the Blondie show for me as I just wanted more of Squeeze.
