... and this gig will be 30 years to the day since my first Quo gig at Birmingham NEC on 13th December 1986, it's been a great journey! That's funny, that was my last Quo gig - the night I realised it was all over. To my ears, that band just didn't sound sufficiently like Quo. At least they eventually had the reunions.

It was a solid show from Quo,thought rossi was talking too much gets a bit tiresome.I guess that's for the DVD release playing up to the cameras there.No mention of Rick was a bit off IMO We were stood right in front of Richie on the barrier,so got a good chance to see/hear what he's about. Certainly a very capable guitar player and not a Rick clone,has his own style but really not much chance for him to change things so he replicated the parts to a decent standard. Something was definitely missing though,Ricks stage presence and vocals alone are a big part of CQ. A tight version of the band,still think the keys are way too high in the mix. Had an enjoyable evening out,I'm sure thousands of people in the venue went home happy and will continue to follow the band,but it's Quo in name only now and far removed from anything Alan and John played with the band even 2 years ago in Dublin. Me,I'm quite happy with my memories now and will continue to follow the individual projects but as a live concern I'm finished attending Quo gigs. Cheers "Something was definitely missing" oooh this is a tough one...I've got it..no it's gone again...wait a minute...it's Rick Parfitt.markquo you must win something for this one.Aquostic 3,4,5,6,7 the albums done again box set are on they're way mate.

You'll all be back in 2018 when rhino is replaced with Lancaster's raotw video dummy and Rick's piped in live from his living room in the Carpet and Slippers tour sponsored by steradent or we could have some pixar stuff with just Rossi on the stage.
