Just thought I’d share this. I took it at the second night, first reunion.
Still gives me goosebumps

I think I was at that one, right at the back. Looking at it now, I am amazed at the restraint of people with cameraphones ... not many of them. I saw most of it through the ears of two brainless tw**ts not far in front of me who thought it was fine to carry on a conversation most of the way through. On reflection I am glad I wasn't further forwards as I am slightly claustrophobic now, and the Hammy downstairs was full to the point that I suspect the Fire Regulations didn't cover. I hope not, anyway.
I am not one of the Quo Elders, so it was a different kind of nostalgia for me, but it was wonderful to see and hear Alan back, and I'd never seen Spud play with Quo, so that was wonderful too. And I am glad they left ROLD out, so I didn't have to watch Francis mess it up with the others around him.

I went to see them 3 times over the 2 tours at Hammy.
Really that first gig was just pure adrenaline - the best gig I've ever been to. Ever. Wilko Johnson was fantastic as well. that was a real coup getting him on the tour.
Regardless of the performance quality, a live gig is an experience between a band and a crowd. its what happens in the room, not purely the music.
The second night was good - maybe a bit rowdier as peeps had been drinking more. And yes it was pretty hairy down the front in front of Alan.
Very glad it happened, but dont hold anything against Francis for ending it when he did. Just grateful it happened.

Brilliant clip. Hope the phone did not get too damaged. I was at this gig, the place was rammed, so I could not get anywhere near the front!
