I will always be sad that Francis and Alan fell out, but it was broken when Alan had the rug pulled from under him and lost his life's work. A couple of tours could not make up for that.

Always the same rubbish about how bad the FF were.

Always the same rubbish about how bad the FF were. From the whole interview that's all you've got? I am with TQONTQ, good interview and honest responses. I am no musician ( don't know if you are) and I loved the reunion concerts, but maybe it was a bit of a shit show, performance wise.

Always the same rubbish about how bad the FF were. He's also not being entirely truthful. He was hugely into it for the first tour, talking about there being two Status Quos, possible new music. Clearly it all went tits up relationship wise, but I'm going to side with Al that they should have done something more, it was a last chance, now lost forever. I guess Alan was never someone to hide his frustration well and Francis is stubborn as hell. Unrelenting force meets immoveable object and all that. Or is it between fire and ice, lukewarm water.

I loved the reunions. The first night in hammy is my greatest ever gig.
But yeah johns pacing is all over the shop and Alan could barely play early on in the second tour. His voice was great though
It’s clear that from a musician ship perspective John and Alan were the weaker half of the reunions. But rock n roll is about vibe and feel of the whole to me and they both brought the best and more out of frame and Rick.
