I love flicking through youtube and I've noticed that Quo are finally starting to get some traction on reaction channels. While these people might irritate some, the worldwide exposure they provide to bands is huge!

Yes I’ve seen these myself. Lots of interest in the States (for a change) All mainly positive too. Considering how big Quo have been over the years, I still find it hard how little impact they’ve had in North America. Massively missed opportunity for the band & punters who never got a chance to hear Quo. Nice to see some recognition, especially from the younger end of the spectrum 👍🎸

This American dude has some great reaction videos and is an absolute hoot as he listens to new stuff. And I see he has put up Quo's Caroline in recent weeks. Great fun!

I agree, they can be irritating. But I saw the Down Down one last month, I thought it was quite good. I also posted two comments on there as well, one of them I put a link to the Wembley 1974 Big Fat Mama clip. I think that particular piece of footage will show our friends across the pond what Quo were about. Also it's good to see that around 100,000 people have seen the Down Down reaction!

I subscribe to these guys - a bit more my demographic, a bit of humour and they know their stuff. They have really switched onto Australian classic rock in the last six months and given it a new audience.

The usual slightly mocking video from what appears to be 2 English guys on the Caroline video. All they need to say is ‘here is a brilliant song from a great band on top form.

Yeah, the modern world of "ooh, look at me me me". Hence the invention of the selfie and the, ahem, influencer. Give people a forum; they'll take it. I mean, look at us lot
