Rhino like everyone can say what he likes. His comments about Facebook I will take with a pinch of salt, just like he said he never visited the Quo message board. But somehow knew what people were saying and used his Tout log to respond. I dont see the need to describe the events of the night at all. Why is that helpful? His criticism of Rick is clearly their party line. Rick can live how he wants. He's almost 70. Not bad for someone who has lived his life to the full. When Lemmy died, it wasn't raised how he had lived as a problem. It seems to be their justification for carrying on. Totally agree with this, although I reckon for party line read "what Rossi thinks" , which gives Rhino the green light to basically repeat Rossi's opinions and criticisms of Rick's behaviour. It's ironic really because it's only because of Rick's prioritising his hard living lifestyle over personal loyalty and artistic integrity that Rhino got to join the band in the first place. Yes but a friend would be angry and fed up with the kind of behaviour Rick was doing. I think they were all very concerned but could not do anything to stop him destroying himself. I would and have criticised a family member for doing what Rick was doing. You get so frustrated because you care.

He didn't need to head to the hotel, he was already in it, It clearly states they were not only in the hotel but just down the corridor and again clearly states Rossi along with Rhino ran to his room I think Derry meant the hospital,I can understand why he didn't go. He does not really do that for anyone. Yip that would make more sense alright, I can also understand him not going as I would anyone in that position, as much as Rossi has done my head in in the last couple of years I certainly wouldn't be having a go at him for that

Glad it's his last quo are finished. And we learned that Rossi thought Rick was dead or dying but didn't head to the hotel. Must have finished his kebab. And 1 in 283 quo fans think rhino can sing, who the fuck is the 1. He didn't need to head to the hotel, he was already in it, It clearly states they were not only in the hotel but just down the corridor and again clearly states Rossi along with Rhino ran to his room I meant head to the hospital, and Rossi went back and finished his kebab

Rhino sounds more than a little tired of all things Quo. And totally hacked off with the fans - his older logs showed warmth I didn't like his digs at Rick and its perfectly obvious that the Quo camp is far from happy Well his digs at him not taking all the warnings he has had seriously, to me are justified. You can't keep being the wildman of rock when you have a dodgy ticker and after 3 heart attacks he should have known better. It was the comment along the lines of "ironic he says he's feeling better now than he did before" that struck me Rick has said be feels the same now as he did before the attack and also that he's paying the price for his lifestyle. Rick does not need telling he's "a dickhead" (FR) But why say his playing is past it now and that Rick isn't as good anymore ? Why?

But he didn't, he said Rick hadn't been so good for a few months, and this is the kind of thing that can happen. Some nights are better, some nights not so much, but Rick had clearly been having underlying serious problems for some time which he hadn't had checked up on. That makes a difference mentally and physically. The band will notice it much more than we do. Rick probably does need telling he's a dickhead, but he never listened, so it's still wasted air! The bit that gets me is the bit about no exercise. Rick used to be fit as a flea, but he lived off it for decades and it sounds like he didn't do anything. Is Rick self destructive, or does he just expect someone will pick him up and fix it? His mum said something about that years ago. It looks like he (Rick) was right if so because they did ... but this may be the last time that will work.

After reading it you just realise how close Rick was to deaths door. A couple of very fortunate circumstances are the reason he's still with us. Thanks for flagging this up. The bit about the snack and the crew member was mentioned some time ago but this is the first mention that it was Lyane (likely) and a kebab (also likely, I guess, being as it was Turkey.) The bit about the paramedic team turning round is remarkable ... even with a shock machine I don't think he could have been saved if that team hadn't been there.

Yes he has said in the past that he compared it with putting his car in for a service then go racing off again. Thing is you replace the worn out bits in cars. Not patch them up and expect them to keep operating at maximum capacity.

If you look at Rossi's Quo's history it's always the fault of the person who leaves. What gets me is the lack of respect for Rick from the bands public statements.

When the disciples saw him walking on the lake, they were terrified. “It’s a ghost,” they said, and cried out in fear.But the blond one known as Rick spake unto them and said "The one known as Rhino speaks in tongues and writes the language of bollarks"

He looked awful around 2008/09.

A strange, contrary, and bitter piece of writing It could be interpreted as bitter and critical. I think it is more of a lament.
