Secret Affair had had their day within a
couple of years effectively and called it a day in 1982. Shelton went off
to join Dexy's Midnight Runners in their scruffy peasant period. The
band have attempted reunions from 2008 and play UK gigs in 2008 with the
Page/Cairns nucleus. Page and Cairns first played Friars in 1977 in The
New Hearts supporting The Jam. As for Madness, they sold out Friars three
months later ! The Stowaways played Friars many times including that
Madness gig.
