With the tour starting in 2 days I thought we would have seen a bit more about this especially on Francis’s social media pages but all seems quiet.

Didn't appreciate it started that early but then I'm not going until November.
He has been putting it about a bit in terms of online interviews but its all been very low key. And if links hadn't been put up here and there, I'd never have known.

I'm seeing the show mid April, at Thornden Hall in Chandlers Ford (just outside of Eastleigh - or between Winchester and Southampton). Thornden Hall is a proper theatre, but it is within a secondary school complex! What Francis will think of it I don't know!

Interview with Francis to promote his tunes and chat tour.
I guess with only 170 views after a month of being available, Quo's management should maybe be promoting his interviews on the bands website / facebook / twitter etc. Otherwise they aren't getting much mileage out the 22 minutes of his time that he spent on the interview.

Maybe because this is also age restricted and people don't want to sign in to view it! I shan't bother to.

The only thing I didn't like about the evening was Caroline being played in the bluesy fashion like on one of the Aquostic CDs - I much prefer the rockier version. But there's a lot of music to like in the show, and his various ramblings are quite funny!

A very enjoyable evening, glad I went. Don't want to give spoilers away but will say the music is genuinely stripped back and is far better imo than acquostick.
Good selection of songs and the main man very funny

Funny thing is though IIRR that was how it was written, and it was only after they tried rocking it up with the Riff that it became the Caroline we know and love.

Epsom brilliant never thought francis was such a funny person one to one and some great adaptations of classic Quo. Bob Young was there with his wife walked past us and said hi outside the venue.
