Rhino should show a bit more gratitude for the gift and lifestyle that he received, not from his own talent, but on the backs of others.

Rhino Knows.. Rossi Knows... Malone Knows...
All from experience playing in their own bands (Rhino'e Revenge, Rossi's solo tours, Malone's Radar)
That without playing the 'nostalgic' music of Status Quo created by five people that included Lancaster, Coghlan and Young....
...they would be playing in pubs to a few dozen people...or even not at all...
And this hurts!
It demonstrates they do not have much of a career outside of playing tribute to Quo's music(i.e. that of The FF era), have little originality or 'own voice', themselves, whilst pretending to be a creative band.(and even this is on very shaky ground as they play to ever decreasing crowds in spite of giving loads of tickets away and selling them at radically reduced prices through Groupon etc., to a point of struggling to get promoters prepared to back future tours)

Disgusting. Just proves what an ungrateful, arrogant, unintelligent he is.

That was completely uncalled for saying that about John.
Absolutely unnecessary!

I'm really struggling with the 'nostalgia' thing. I mean, when does 'nostalgia' begin? 40 years? 6 months? Last week? It's a cop out. Good music is always current and you either embrace your catalogue and continue to be creative, or you rest on your laurels and go for the easy and lazy options. The clip that was posted elsewhere of the car crash Xmas melodies. I was at that tour and couldn't believe what I was seeing and hearing. It was the typical Quo fanny about and have a laugh, yet us fans that 'eat Lancasters shit' still remember how damn good this band were. At least I've been put right about those dreadful FF gigs. That excitement, volume, the 'Most of the Time' singalongs, they were actually all just nostalgic and shit. As for Rhino being a 'Quo' fan back in the day, because he saw them at some festival in a field in nineteen oatcake, well, I smell shite.....

The nostalgia thing is an absolute cop out. I apologise for having to refer to them the whole time, as I'm sure it grates on people but, U2 done a 30th anniversary tour of The Joshua Tree tour in the summer and basically said Nostalgia is a cop out reason, that the music was good and were relevant to the times we live in. That's exactly your point! If the music is good, if it does something for you, then it's relevant and not nostalgic whatsoever. I will take those times at those gigs with me through my life because it was magical being apart of it. Not because I wanted to see Alan in a leather fucking jacket and Rossi with long hair. I also wanted to hear the songs played properly for a change

Who is this Whino/Whiny Edwards person?
Obviously someone that I don't give a rats knacker about.
I can't see no Edwards in "Lancaster, Rossi, Coghlan, Parfitt & Young" .
I suggest, Mr. Onwards that you best fudge off and continue milking it in your "Black Lace" tribute band.

Desperate contemptible stuff from an extremely bitter ,immature man, with a bucket full of issues.
The bit about eating shit is utterly pathetic.

So some of my previous comments about Rhino were unfair and uncalled for.
But now I am going to go buy his album and goto his tour because if nothing else he has proved to me that he is a complete wanker and now I can have reason for looking him in the eye and knowing that it is true.

The Plugged In, Live and Rockin Tour
I'm very confused. Rhino says they're not doing a tour, they're doing gigs instead. Status Quo's FB page is calling it a tour. If a collection of gigs, on consecutive nights, travelling around the country playing different venues isn't a tour, then what is it?
