Come across photos and ticket stubs from the FITLC tour in 2000. We made the journey across from NZ as Quo were never going to come to us. I remember going to the Plough Inn on the night before the gig to see an Aussie Quo tribute band that was featuring Roy on keys. We were supposed to be at the pub early but were late and only caught the end of the gig. I spoke to Tonto who was Quo's guitar tech at the time. He said that we had just missed Rick & Rhino. On the day of the gig, Quo were doing a meet and greet in Queen St mall, entry was by purchasing the FITLC CD, which I already had (I can hear you all saying 2 copies of one of Quo's worst outputs ) I had a Scottish flag with QUO embroidered over it for the band to sign, Rossi quipped I guess you are from Wales then. The night of the gig, there was a massive electrical storm and the concert was under threat of a power cut. Andy was not present at this gig, being replaced by Paul Hirsh on keyboard. We had the pleasure of Roy joining the band on stage for 1 song, at least I can say that I have seen Quo with Roy Lynes.
