All dates are now on the Quo website and it looks like there are 31 opportunities to see him next year. www.statusquo.co.ukNo dates further north than Leeds or Preston and none at all in Scotland, N Ireland. Only one in Wales. I wonder if more will be added.

Going to watch Francis Rossi talk would be as entertaining as watching paint dry in my opinion.
It would be a repeat of all the same stock stories repeated numerous times over the years in interviews, from the 'insecure little show off', guaranteed not to give further insight in to his shifty, two faced 'chameleon' character underneath his well practiced exterior.
He will be disrespectfully chewing gum and shifting and squirming with awkward mannerisms, and have a cockney 'cor blimey' and condescending attitude. He will probably wear a long tailed dress coat and silk scarf, as befits 'rock royalty', and his usual garb on solo tours away from the denim stage waistcoat.
All in all some thing to give a very big wide berth to!
Years ago John Coghlan did a drum studio tour. He came across as a genuine, down to earth, humble human being, as you would expect. I doubt the same would apply to Mr. Superego Rossi.

No mention of the book on the official site.
They obviously want people to buy tickets first to prevent the tour being a disaster.

No Scottish dates. What a surprise. He can stick it up his arse. Not that I would have gone anyway, but some might have. Waalloper. A good thing that there are no Scottish dates. He can keep his anti FF / pro Quo tribute band pish south of Hardrians Wall.

Who is this appealing to ? Is he performing songs from his solo side of things by himself ? Thirty one shows , how long before you tube is awash with the best bits ( ? ) from the early shows , how long will it take him to get pissed off answeing questions on Rick , Alan , John , constantly , even through the same show , because punters aren’t happy with his responses ? . If your interested in attending , chances are you are on the forums , old and new , FTMO member or lapsed , seen the band numerous times , read and watched interviews through the years , what extra are you really going to learn ? . An hour and a half odd of new material , verbally and nasally , . This seems like it will be stage managed to the nth degree . Mick Wall ? is comparing I believe , no doubt reading out a “ punters “ handwritten question at the start to ease everybody along . Sorry , I’m very cynical of it , time will tell ........

His tour rolls in to Southend on April 28th at the 600 seated Palace Theatre, but I don't think I'll go.

If he was doing Whitley Bay Playhouse, Id have gone. But Leeds is as close as he gets.
I think it’ll be canny.
But I guess it’ll be.released on video.
