Artists: Secret Affair / The Truth / The Vapors / Squire
Venue: Old Woollen, Farsley, Leeds
Date: 14.5.22

The old guard met the dawn of a new era as mods and modettes young and old filled the Old Woollen for a Mods Mayday gathering. The ageing fellas with feather cuts mingled with a new generation of the ‘in crowd’ who appreciate the past but bring a contemporary twist to the mod scene. Isn’t that what it was originally all about?
Performances varied in quality with Secret Affair being notably disappointing compared to when I’d recently seen them at Brudenell Social Club.. The Vapours played the standout set, still having the sound and energy of their era.
