Can't remember the specific date but I thought to myself "I have the programme somewhere, I'll go and have a look". The bloody programme isn't dated but there's a picture of the band inside, towards the back, of them recording the new album "As It Happens". That turned out to be "Whatever You Want" didn't it?
Presumably then my first Quo gig was 1977 on the RAOTW tour. It was definitely at the NEC. A magic day.
Strange how I can lay my hands on that programme from 1977 but I'm buggered if I can find my pension statement from last week.............!

She was gorgeous and I really wanted her to like it. At the end of the concert she said it was ok except for the long bit in the middle (4500x). Never saw her again .. |

The Heat tour maybe? |

The Heat tour maybe? Sounds like your first gig was the same one as mine, 12th May 1979. 1. Caroline 2. Roll Over Lay Down 3. Backwater 4. Rockers Rollin' 5. Is There a Better Way 6. Hold You Back 7. Little Lady 8. Like a Good Girl 9. Rockin' All Over the World 10. Oh, What a Night 11. Dirty Water 12. Forty-Five Hundred Times 13. Big Fat Mama 14. Don't Waste My Time 15. Roadhouse Blues 16. Encore: 17. Rain 18. Down Down 19. Bye Bye Johnny This was before the modern venue had been built at the NEC. The tour was promoting Pye's Just For The Record compilation & a free flexi disc was distributed around the venue. The Heat tour in '78 only featured Quo at Reading in the UK due to those "Tax Years" they were doing |

First and only, Michigan Palace '75 April 11th, support to Rush. How did the Rush fans react to Quo and their working-man shuffle blues? |

The same day as the Arsenal vs Man Utd Cup Final. Late goal by Alan Sunderland if I recall. Definitely got my dates mixed up.... |

It was a fantastic night, I was 13. It was a Saturday night sold out crowd in a new venue Quo had never played before and I remember the whole pit (if that's the right term) was bouncing. I think there was only one or two gigs after this before Rick's throat cancer scare cancelled the rest of the tour.
This might also have been the only occasion I've heard a Quo track live before ever hearing it on record. I'd never heard 'The Oriental' before that show.
