Picking up from Francis’s Christmas message on social media on Christmas Day, he mentions see you in 24, so I’m taking from that there won’t be much or at all anything next from the whole Band, i e no new Album no Tour as we all know Francis is Busy with he’s solo tour next year, but I’m getting the Finally this could be the end of the Band ? What’s anyone else’s thoughts on this ?

I'm not on social media so I haven't read any messages. But Francis's solo tour takes up so much time next year, there's barely any room for Quo gigs, so I'm not surprised.
The band are winding down; they have been for quite a few years now. Although Francis remains busy, obviously. But if he wishes to maintain that profile, I think the band would need to keep going in some way.
I'm personally looking forward to Rhino's Revenge III because I think the material Mr Edwards produces is now better than Quo's to a large extent. Or at least I've begun to prefer it. Hopefully the hiatus will allow him to complete the album.
No album and no tour dates keeps Quo out of the public eye and that's risky. But I'm sure they know what they're doing. Francis has already said that there's no money in making a new album, although that didn't stop him recording one with Hannah Rickard. Just for the joy of it presumably. I wish he got the same joy from recording with Quo.

I'd be going to see Quo Connection instead anyway, tbh.

He seems to keep his Christmas message pretty private then He's got his own website, and the official Quo site, but no sign of any message there.

I've just looked at the Quo page and there's a short vid of Francis (blink and you'd miss it) of him thanking fans for a great tour, and how much he enjoyed it, Merry,Merry Christmas and " see you in '24. Hmhm"

Also surprised they never laid down at least an ep worth of tracks with jcq. But … never mind
