Latest FTMO magazine arrived yesterday.
It is Francis who wants to quit, although Rick admits to being a bit tired of the touring treadmill.
Francis has got a solo album in the can, and he wants to do more work with Hannah Rickard, one of the Aquostic singers.
Rick wants to form a new band and 'is chomping at the bit' to get out on the road with them. He might have a look at releasing Recorded Delivery.
Rhino intends to rock til he drops.
Aquostic 2 is recorded, but they don't know if they'll tour it - depends on how well the album sells - and they acknowledge it is so expensive to put on the road that they would lose money doing so. They're not sure how much Quo fans are prepared to pay for a high priced ticket for another acoustic show.
So... possibly a Rossi solo tour, a Rick solo tour, and more Rhino's revenge. Don't know about Andy, and Leon of course has got his other bands.
See you at Blackpool tonight, if anyone's going.

Thanks lazy, so it appears this last tour will be the last as StrumQuo won't get off the ground.

So basically the only live work will be a Rossi Solo tour, so unless they do another reunion tour CQ will be back touring the ''electric'' show as normal minus the winter tour!! Enjoy Blackpool,

Colm - don't you reckon Rick will do a solo tour? It does sound like he's getting very settled doing the school run in Spain.
Dare we dream about the fabled PLC??

Rick seemed to enjoy the rock meets classic stuff last year, so he is okay being a front man, so we should dream about PLC...

So this is who Francis is dumping Quo for. And here she is with a band called The Relatives.

What is Rick thinking of releasing 'Recorded Delivery'? Get PLC out on the road or make a PLC album.

Looking forward to hearing new Aquostic. Really enjoyed first one. I guess FF tragics will give it a miss but still want to talk about it. Do yourself a favour, don't buy it. Hey, I am a FF tragic too but still enjoyed Aquostic. Complicated isn't it. Rockon Wilquo

There is a nice potential contrast in both those projects of Francis and Rick. I'd welcome both - to be sure it would provide plenty of welcome well overdue variety interest to live event proceedings than at present
All that is needed now is a belated announcement of the involvement of Alan and John, both in the Quo wind-down and then maybe part of Rick's band development
Francis has always said he enjoys singing with females - so no surprise really at his latest musings. Another solo release would be an opportunity for more gigs and maybe second time lucky after he cancelled last time after having bought tickets
