GLENN TILBROOK - ONE FOR THE ROAD


The title Glenn Tilbrook: One For The Road pretty much sums up this documentary.  In 2001, Glenn Tilbrook of Squeeze came to the U.S. and bought an RV to enable him to make a month long solo tour of America and not have to stay in hotel/motel rooms. The movie was directed by fan Amy Pickard, who supposedly sold all her possessions to finance the film.

This was a thoroughly enjoyable documentary and the main reason is Glenn Tilbrook. His love for his music and his easy going manner with fans or in the face of RV breakdowns makes you really like the guy. I had such an enjoyable time watching that the one thing that kept running through my mind while was, "Gee, I wish I'd seen this tour when it came through Greenville". I would highly recommend this film for anyone who loves good music, not just fans of Squeeze.
