Featured Review

I've seen Squeeze many times over the past 30 years and must say that this might have been the best sounding and tightest ever. While they are not as young and animated as they once were, they have only honed their musical skiills and have hired the best of keyboards and drums. While the bass is not of the original lineup, he was part of the pre-82 band so he is almost an original member.

Also, this is a first rate production with A-list sound, lights and media-projections. Somebody is footing a large production bill for this tour and it is worth seeing.

The best part of the show was the choice of songs. Almost exc;usively from the original pre-1982 breakup era - which was the only time I followed the band. Cheers to the band for not trying to peddle new tunes and instead going for the crowd pleasers.

The English Beat, while missing Ranking Roger - replaced by Two Tone Tony was a pleasant surprise. I wasn't expecting much - but Dave Wakling and TT Tony worked the crowd and the band was tight and sound was full. Wakling is a top rate performer and I am embarrassed to say I've never seen him over the years.

I see a lot of shows and am generally disappointed - this was not one of those.

Small venue in Baltimore's Inner Harbor. There were no chairs, no seats, so everyone was dancing, moving to the music. That may have helped both bands' great connections with the audience. Glenn and Chris and the others (of Squeeze) were fluid and strong, the band sounded tight. They all looked like they were having a great time onstage. Each band member had a chance to be highlighted. The show was really long -- got my money's worth.
After the show, the venue didn't just kick people out; it goes back to being a bar. After a break, the bands came out and they mingled with folks who were left hanging out in the bar. Very cool thing to do!!

Let me say up front I LOVE Squeeze, I'm not a casual 45's and Under fan. They sound terrific, Glenn's voice is as good as ever. They played all the familiar songs that everyone loves, plus three new songs, which was very exciting! New music from Squeeze is something to look forward to.
I personally would love to hear a couple of "B-sides", but this takes away nothing from the show. The performances were excellent, my only wish is it could have been a longer set. Of course if it were up to me they would never stop playing:)
Bottom line, FABULOUS- can't wait to see them again!

Great fun was had by all as the B's made us dance in our seats. They played all the required hits, Rock Lobster, Love Shack, etc. But they also did some Whammy, some B52 girls, and some Planet Claire. Then Sqeeze came out and continued the party. Hits came fast and furious, Tempted, Black Coffee in Bed, and Hourglass. They also brought out some chestnuts, like Annie Get your Gun, and Cool for Cats. What a show!

Forgot just how many amazing songs Squeeze has. LOL! Felt like I was reliving my childhood into adulthood. Each song they sang brought up a very distinct memory. Black Coffee In Bed and Tempted had that easy going 80's feel that felt so familiar. Pulling Mussels and Another Nail In My Heart made me flashback to my good old college days. I was back in the club during Cool For Cats. Overall it was a very enjoyable evening and worth the price of admission :D

I went to the Squeeze show not expecting to hear a band from the 80's still sound great but hoping that the tunes from back in the day would still be good enough to bring me back to the day. Well, to my surprise the boys have not lost a thing. They sounded exactly as they did back in the 80's. Every song brought me back to my youth. It was really incredible that they sounded as if they were right off the CD. They played all their biggest hits from Pulling muscles from a shell to breakfast in bed. The English Beat opened the show and were absolutely awesome. I would say that anyone who grew up listening to these bands in the 80's should see these bands in concert you will be glad you did.

I've seen Squeeze numerous times. This was one of their better shows. Glenn played better than ever before. They did some of their lesser known tunes, which was a nice change. I just wish they would have included "When the Hangover Strikes!" I think it's time to make a medley out of their hits and bring on some new tunes. Overall, good energy, great sound. Loved it. Only complaint is that since there aren't many seats, it does get tiresome standing for 3 hours amidst a bunch of drunken/high knuckleheads bumping and weaving, and spilling their drinks.

I've seen Squeeze at least 10 times over the years and they sounded as good as ever.They looked like they were really into it and they were having a ball up on the stage.Glenn Tillibrook looks strange in a beard but his voice was in prime shape.The venue is a great place to see a show as well.

In a rare performance, Squeeze put on a terrific show at Roseland this past week. The English Beat got the crowd up and ready with a decent warm up set, but almost everyone was there for Squeeze. Their vocals have not lost a scintilla of clarity and the beat and tempo was superb. Squeeze is one of those bands, where you keep saying, wow, i remember that song too. They rattled off every hit and some recent tunes as well. I cannot say much more but if you enjoyed Squeeze in the 80s, you will love this trip down memory lane. Certainly worth the cost. Roseland is a good venue....a bit of a down and dirty club scene, plastic cups, no seating, and the floor a tad sticky...just what you imagine. But the sound was good, the crowd was generally in to it and it was a set of about 1.40 hrs....

Again, if your care to sit home with Black Coffee in Bed, so be it...but you will miss out

Tilbrook & Difford prove again why they are 2 of the best British songwriters since John & Paul stopped collaborating. Their timeless pop/rock generated an explosion of dancing & singing at a packed Roseland. The signature songs still pack a killer punch based on viciously infectious hooks combined with lyrics that match Becker/Fagen in their easy intelligence and poesy. John Bentley & Simon Hanson laid a rocksolid foundation while G&C's perfect vocal harmonies sounded as great as they did 30 years ago. Flawless performance of world class rock n roll. Highly recommended!!

Brilliant gig. Difford and Tillbrook are the Lennon McCartney of the 1980's and beyond. The last 45 minutes of the show was just brilliant - as they romped through some of the best songfest of an era - Pulling Mussels, Cool for Cats and Up the Junction.

This was an amazing concert and trip down memory lane. English Beat opened and played about 50 minutes of energetic, memorable tunes including both those by English Beat and by the spin-off act General Public. Then, Squeeze totally rocked it, kicking off their set with "Take Me I'm Yours" and "If I Didn't Love You," two of my favorite Squeeze songs. They briefly diverged into some newer (or less known) material for 5 or 6 songs (some better than others) but then returned to the 80s with a vengeance and the last 35-40 minutes of the show was solid, classic Squeeze.
