Here's an interesting piece of music trivia: although some would argue that this is Squeeze's best-known song, it didn't crack the top 40 in any country. (In America, Squeeze's highest charting song was the inoffensive pop ditty "Hourglass.") As a lad, I saw Squeeze in 1985 for their Cosi Fan Tutti Frutti tour.

Eric - where did you see them play? They were at the UNH - Durham Field House, I believe it was December 3, 1985. I rember it well, because I left after 1/2 an hour. The problem there - I just saw Rush at the Worcester Centrum the night before (just checked the ancient ticket stub), and I said 'not even close' as I walked out. Unfair, I know...
Roger, it was at the Brenden Byrne Arena in the New Jersey Meadowlands - I believe it's now called the Continental Arena. And I don't know the month, but it was definitely 1985 and it was cold in the parking lot.
Never saw Rush, but I understand your walk-out.
