That really is a terrible picture. Johnny looks like he's about to throw up, and Francis just looks old! The heads look photoshopped onto the bodies. It's kind of like the Quid Pro Quo cover cartoons came to life ... that's disturbing!

I'm confused
So not a tour, just a few random theatre gigs?
Is the wolves venue the same as the FF reunions? That was a great venue

They may be more popular in Germany now, than the UK, looking at the tour so far. But other gigs could be added later. www.statusquo.co.uk/tour

The gigs in the UK last year were very well attended. Best for years probably. It might just be a question of costs, which seems to drive almost everything they do these days. But there is unquestionably a focus on the summer months. Winter tours are probably a thing of the past. Don't blame 'em frankly

Just had a quick look to see prices and if standing or not, the link is broken. They won't sell many tickets like that!
Seems really odd, just a few random small venues in England.

I know what you mean. Having seen Francis' Tunes and Chat tour, he so loved the smaller venues. Maybe they've opted for small more personal gigs??? If as mortified says, the recent UK gigs have been well attended.

It's the same venue, just slightly renamed recently. It's a great venue for Quo, I did two reunion gigs there and it's a perfect size for current Quo too. Just a few miles from where I grew up too but now 10,000+ miles away...!

Cheers 👍 Didn't realise that. I did one reunion gig there in 2014 and it's nice and central. Only time I've ever set foot in Wolverhampton I wanted to see ZZ Top there but never got tickets. It is a nice size. All standing for the reunion. Seated for current Quo?

I'm confused So not a tour, just a few random theatre gigs? Is the wolves venue the same as the FF reunions? That was a great venue As therockdoctor points out above, it's still at the Civic Hall in Wolves for Quo next year, same as the Frantic Four reunion gigs. They've had a bit of a refurb & are using "The Halls" to connect both the smaller Wulfrun Hall & Civic Hall together, I wish they would just clearly define which one is being used though. Joanne Shaw Taylor is playing there next year & one minute it said Wulfrun Hall, then it said Civic, bloody hell! For those interested, Civic Hall capacity is around 3,500 with stalls standing & around 2,500 for all seated. Wulfrun Hall capacity is around 1,300 with standing. As with Hammersmith, these venues are so much better than the big arenas. I've got a feeling Quo would have played at the Civic in 2022 instead of the Birmingham Symphony Hall, but the refurb wasn't finished. Also Quo did do that mini UK winter tour last year, so maybe they will do something like that again next year after the spring/summer run. Anyway as far as I'm aware, Quo's gig at the Wolves Civic Hall next year is down as all seated so it should be this configuration below, you get a good view wherever you are really.

Xland thx mate for your perfect answer, that was exactly all the things that I wanted to know
I said goodbye to Quo live at Download 2014. I can't believe that's nearly 10 years ago. I do love backbone. Going to see this line up is now something that's under consideration. Never say never
