Friday night at the Savoy, and the place was buzzing. Joe of the band Fred opened things up solo. It was just him, an acoustic, a red tee and a flat cap, perched in front of a wall of Orange amps that looked far too big for one man and a guitar. Lovely, stripped-back stuff. He played some of the great Fred hits of so long ago and I loved it!
Then Stanley Super 800 took over and the room tilted: bassist front and centre in a tangerine shirt and tie (a brave wardrobe choice under those lights, and it paid off), keys to the left, the red kit thumping away behind, and a guitarist working the right flank. The blue wash and that battered red drum kit made for a proper feast of colour, and from where I was standing, somewhere in that thicket of
silhouetted heads, it was hard to know whether to shoot or just listen. I did a bit of both. Good to see them again after so many years!
