Very impressed with your gig list kursaal75 . I now realised that I missed a trick by it never occuring to me to go to more than one night on each tour until 84. And interesting that you missed the entire EOTR tour. I went 4 times then! Doh, of course, they don't count. That cuts my gig list down to 8.

kursaal75. That's an impressive list, I'm no where near that, 70 odd times, but only half a dozen ff gigs ( not including the reunion tours). I notice Bingley Hall is the furthest North you've ventured!!😉🤔🙄

Selhurst Park was my first Quo gig, so I missed out on John, but the actual journey to England, as a 15-year old, to watch the Quo on their home turf was so enormous that I didn't care enough at the time. I also saw them in 2014 in Antwerp. This time John, and Alan were finally back. I cherish those two gigs very much as they bookended my Quo live experience. I saw Rhino Quo a couple of times (was it 2 or 3?), but only the Heavy Traffic gig counts, as it was really good. The other gig(s) were during festivals, and I hardly remember them. I never liked greatest hits gigs anyway, so Quo on a festival was never my thing. I could never go and see the same band on the same tour for a couple of times, not even Quo.
So the count will remain at 4 or 5, (that's how important it is to me). I'm happy with that. My only regret is to have never been able to watch Quo at their peak: 1970 to 1976 would have meant everything to me. "Is it really me/ Gotta go home" would be the only reason to go out and pay for Quo at this time, "Slowtrain" would probably do the trick too.

WOW! My gigology is no where near that! Whilst I saw The original FF in 79 or 81 even if it was diluted by carp like SBYBIL, Dear John And The Wanderer or was that Kircher ? Finished in 1984. Followed by a long break till Matt Letley in 2009 through to the reunions, then nothing , no interest at all apart from JCQ Tour and hopefully some classics in Masham this summer!

I reckon therockdoctor would need a few pages here to list his Quo gig history.

I reckon therockdoctor would need a few pages here to list his Quo gig history. Well, my FF history is very small. I managed to see all but one of the 2013 reunion shows, but never saw the FF during their golden years unfortunately. My gigging started in earnest on the In The Army Now tour towards the end of 1986, seen them a few times since then! Hoping to add a few more to the tally later this year in Europe too.

was some of it shown on tv? Seems to ring a bell. Hi Dennis Think it was this gig, I remember seeing Boys on a Tv interview before concert, Alan flicking a fag and caught it in his mouth! (Party Trick at the time Methinks!) Memories eh? Rockin On

My first Frantic Four gig was the Reading Rock Festival in 1978. I saw them next in 1979 at S*uthampt%n Gaumont. I also saw them quite a few times on their 1981 tour, I cant remember the total but I saw them at the Cornwall Coliseum,Wembley, Hammersmith (a few times) and S*uthampt%n. Then fast forward to 2013, twice at the Hammy then 2014 twice at the Hammy again. Both times the Friday and Saturday gigs. Sorely missed!
