If it's more than £50 they can get to ****. Even then I'm not sure I'd pay it.

G|mp · 18 Oct 2011 at 17:41

Get the **** in.

cheets64 · 18 Oct 2011 at 17:56

Decent band but bit before my time. Tickets will be like gold dust.

John squire hasn't touched a guitar in years. He's into his painting now. Lives in the Peak District Like a right miserable person.

Hope it doesn't happen ever.

He played a solo set a few months ago at one of our local pubs

I remember you mentioning that, did you catch it?

kmufc77 · 18 Oct 2011 at 18:33

Ive never understood why The Second Coming at the time got slated by some fans and the media?

Its a superb album,Squire is superb to listen to.

Even now the album is still not rated as it should.

I was gigging myself but my mates went.
I never asked how it went or if he even turned up.

As much as this would be great to see, somewhat out of my price bracket and a bit far to go at that price too.

whats your favourite track?

Probably Sally Cinnamon or Fools Gold. I like them all, but I started listening to them at that point. Lived out in Germany and was 17/18 at the time... listening to the roses, out on the town drinking german beer. Good times

What were they, I'll email my mate?

Text update:

Dimple - Did you go to see Jon Squire in Newcastle when you said you was going?
Kev - No was on holiday so couldn't go
Dimple - Do you know if he actually turned up?
Kev - It wasn't Jon Squire it was The Seahorses vocalist, I've forgot his name
Dimple - Chris Helme
Kev - Yeah that's him

:rolleyes:

So perhaps it's correct Squire hasn't played for years.

Anyone got any idea what sort of price we are looking at for tickets?

I saw part of a local news programme that interviewed Squire. This is where he said hasn't played for yonks and didn't intend to anytime soon.

It's on YouTube if anyone fancies a search
