And admittedly, I'm in tears....I was at the Dublin gig, I done few dates on that tour, I was there in 2013 and yet, it's only now I'm reduced to tears...
I miss this....How this current charade can carry on is beyond me....I want my band back.
That clip just oozes class. Rory Gallagher would even struggle to top it

Rossi's fucking stupid not wanting to continue with this line up... shouldn't have left it till 2011 to finally patch things up, shouldve done it mid 90's and saved us from Don't stop!

Francis went to a higher level when playing in FF Quo from what I saw on DVD. Brilliant.

It beautiful. Thanks for posting. Having gone from elation and joy that they got back together, to despair at the negativity from Francis over this tour, I now feel grateful we had the chance to experience them once more. And that we have the record of that joy. I feel sorry for the CQ fans who might not have the finale we had.

Walking into the Apollo that night....Me thinking, CQ were better. They put a stop to that half way through JW. That clip is filled with soul and driven by emotion. It's so fucking pure.. Pity we'll never see it again

Wonderful! I love MOTT! quorp quofr quojc quoal When I listen to my Hammersmith cd's, I always prefer the ending on the Friday 2013 which is beautiful, like this Wembley clip. The 2014 Friday night version, whilst still great (especially the shout out at 'could I be younger') is more rushed at the end and so not quite as perfect. I keep meaning to do a playlist of my favourite versions from the two tours but I never get round to it. Definitely would have 4500x from the Friday night at Hammy 2014. Also would put ASS&W after MOTT as it was on the first tour. Love the way it flows...!

Wonderful clip.
I missed it all. But I have the peak FF era to always remember.
How those reunions didn't change the course of these final Quo years, god knows (or more accurately Francis...)

Although Most Of The Time is not one of my favourite tracks off the On The Level album. It certainly was one of the highlights for me from those magnificent Hammy reunion gigs that I was fortunate to attend. It was so apt and beautifully sung by Rossi and the crowd. Even now thinking about it brings a tear!

Yes, one of the finest numbers of the set on both tours. Just perfectly executed by all, no less Mr. Rossi who was as perfect as he will ever be.
Fast forward to what they are now and ....OMG. It is truly hard to fathom. They went from this magnificent high where they could do no wrong to a complete shambles and joke band within 2 years. Seriously flawed beyond redemption. Its like someone at the round table said lets turn the tap off now and watch this band wither away and die.

Now that's a band......the 2013 reunion gig I went to at Wolverhampton will never be topped by any other band or artist.
Fantastic from start to finish.
