i have this great book, but am currently trying to clear something up. i "think" i have found a Quo gig that isn't even mentioned yup... hot scoop from little old me eh? but, b4 i enlighten you on that little gem, i have TWO different dates for another gig. it's the lancaster university 1975. 4500 gigs claims the "verified" date was 3/3/75, yet the records i'm looking at from Lancaster state 8/3/75. probably a simple "typo", but if anyone of you can find some evidence of either i'd be appreciative.

It was the 3rd March 1975, at the Lancaster University. Evidence = tape reel from the gig. 4 gigs recorded in succession and Rossi talks about them in an interview from April 1975 (International Musician Mag). Tons of incorrect dates out there. Another being 28th June 1979 at the Hammersmith Odeon, which didnt happen. They played the 25th, 26th (Recorded) and 27th.

They played the 25th, 26th (Recorded) and 27th. excellent QI . thankyou. i am currently in contact with the co-author of the book i am reading. i explained the difference in dates, and he said he will ask his co author cos he is the statto of the two. it's looking like a typo in the book rather than anything else. i just wanted to make sure that the 4500 version was actually verified for the 3rd. as for gigs that didn't happen, i am trying to glean a bit more info from the fella as to an unrecorded gig that DID happen. i'm interested in attendance figures b4 i bother sharing on here, cos the details are sketchy enough without those lol.

They recorded four gigs and three songs were released, one of those from a soundcheck. It's a shame these recordings are just lying around somewhere gathering dust when there's many people would love to hear them.

Inaccuracies in a book about Quo. Never!
