What a cracking gig. I am so glad I still go to see today's Quo, they always produce the goods. I would say almost full capacity and performance wise they nailed it.

I was there too. My 1st Quo gig without Rick. Fair play to Quo they played an excellent show & Rossi was well on form. One criticism don’t think it was loud enough. I was about 3/4 way back & it didn’t pin me back like it used to. The playing was great, more juice required. These new sound systems seem to have more clarity without the punch. Even so it was a good night & the gig was packed out with 8,000 billy 🎸

According to Leon, 7000 there.
One in the eye for all the naysayers.
That’s a brilliant crowd for Quo .

I just wish they'd let Richie sing all the Rick tracks cos Andy can't sing and Rhino is marginally better. Do we all believe that this tour will be the last gigs the band ever play?

Brilliant gig, big crowd and a spot on the barrier in front of Rhino was ideal to take it all in. Will review properly when I get a chance, but Francis especially was in fine form (and looking fit as a fiddle) and the changes to "Down Down" are unbelievably good. Next stop Swansea tomorrow night

Considering some of the batshit stuff they've done for publicity over the years, you'd think there would be a major arena tour announced to call it a day, even if it wasn't until Christmas 2025 for example. Appreciate age isn't on (some of ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png) ) their side but would be bitterly disappointed if this was it officially.
They only gig in the south of England is Taunton FFS!

Glasgow was an indicator and Scarborough seems to have nailed it definitively. This band still cut it. I'm coming out of retirement! Probably a year too late

Looking forward to what will most likely be the last hurrah for me in Elgin in August. Bring it on !!

Not bad when you think they have no single or album to promote. Approx 25k tickets sold for 1st 6 uk shows.

Looks as good as we could expect from the band at this stage in their career. Well done Frame, Andy, Rhino and the boys.
If they would just mix it up a bit (old man shouts at the sky).
