Here's one for the trainspotters. Anyone notice the 'Qoing' poster has the crowd silhouette with 2 electric guitars being held up & the revised 'Quoing' version the guitar has been changed to what looks like an Aquostic ? Nothing quite like going apeshit in a Quo crowd bringing along your own Aquostic to hold aloft, or are we into Beatles territory with hidden messages in the lyrics, posters & album covers ? It's acoustic for starters and I'm not sure it actually is one. But good find anyway. The imagery is kinda strange anyway... you would only do this kind of thing with inflatables, and those don't have tuning pegs!

As you say, the imagery is somewhat unusual. On both versions of the poster it looks more like a riot with people about to be clubbed with those guitars rather than rocking on.

I would genuinely hold off on buying tickets for Dublin.
The Chief Medical Officer is back now and he's not opening bars or anywhere for the summer. Our Government is weak. The CMO is making the decisions. This gig will not go ahead!

The Globe Theatre in Stockton-on-Tees was the biggest music venue in the North-East back in the 60s & early 70s. All the big names played there, The Beatles, The Stones... and Status Quo played there in December 1974. After that in 1975 it was shut down & turned into a bingo hall. The last couple of years it has been refurbished for £25 million & re-opens as a concert venue this year. They can remove the seats downstairs & it would be 3000 capacity. I know all this because it is 5 miles from where i live, so i will be going. "After that in 1975 it was shut down & turned into a bingo hall." So there's a chance to get a couple of lines in between the end of the show and the encore? Francis and Rick used to love getting a few pre and post show lines in...

Much better time and you'll be more secure in the knowledge that it goes ahead I've read their advice to Government. No live music until mid 2022 at the earliest. Unless the Irish Government has any guts (they don't) nothing will happen

Francis and Rick used to love getting a few pre and post show lines in... And according to the Milton Keynes full video, in-between the show, at least Francis.

It's not lockdown, I'll let you into the secret. granny sent me a jar of her homemade face cream "Bostin Fizzogs", made from a mixture of lard, faggot essence and rare Black Country herbs. I went to bed looking like this After a few dabs of Granny's wonder cream and I woke next morning looking like this!
