Yea, lot of truth in what you are saying above. Makes me think of how happy I was with Maiden's Brave new world and Priest's latest effort !
Huzzah! And I reckon Maiden are better now than they were before, but that is probably because they now play even more of what I like to hear from them. They've also stayed very lively live, and with great guitar playing. I can't think of any other "heritage band" I take an interest in that does that. (…)
So true.

A tour would be somewhat strange with only two of us left but stranger things have happened. Studio time has been booked however after a 30 year hiatus. Great news! I'm waiting with bated breath for your next masterpiece "Falling". Songs should include opener "Bingo Woman", "Walk with the Frame" and the epic "Stoolgazer". (I'm sure you don't need any smileys, Tony? I really think this could be exciting.)

Used to listen to *Stampij every week. Best radio show ever for young metal heads.
* Stampij is Dutch for racket or noise.

Rossi was brought back to consciousness by smelling salts. Unfortunately the salts were mixed up with a vial of the strongest cocaine ever produced and Francis Rossi was stoned until 45 seconds into Railroad at Hammersmith Odeon 15/03/13.Taking in what he saw he concluded he was in a band with the parents of his band members of 1979 and has never recovered. So he recruited some kids?

Right, say no more. I'm the first in line when tickets will be made available for the "Rising, 45 Years of Sheer Brilliance Live Tour" in 2021. (I'll edit my post, just to make sure.)

4th Chord and don't forget Ritchie's "t"! Three guesses what it stands for. Talented? Tremendous? Triumphant?

If you want 5 new songs, go to Hamburg. My guess is they'll drop at least 3 before Strasbourg.

Maybe Rossi told John he was trying to write his own Hey Joe? John and the rest of The Beatles were great fans of Jimi's.

Don't worry, there's no guidelines on dull posts. We even welcome posters whose auditory faculties have left them.

There's footage from; 1975 (?) 1976 [Jazz Bilzen Festival, couple of minutes showing Backwater] 1977 [Hammersmith Odeon, Rockin' All Over The World Tour] 1978 [Brussels Cirque Royal, 6th February] 1981 [Brussels Vorest National, 27th March] As far as I know it's all silent 8mm footage, so it will probably have audio dubbed over it So it's basically a Belgian compilation? Anyway, Jazz Bilzen is legendary overhere, so no complaints from this side of the pond.

Piledriver,Hello,Quo,On The Level and Blue For You it ain't ..but.. it's still has that "thing" that no one else can even get close to. I smile when all the incarnations of this band can just amble on stage at big festivals usually at the worst time of day and still STILL blow them all sideways with even die hard detractors having a great time..and isn't that what matters? Wow, which prism have you been using?

1982 was a shite album. The one Francis Quo will never beat is NTL. But from all the albums post frantic four I think this one is the best. It's better than ISOTFC, it's better than HT. Well done, boys.

According to Francis Rick wasn't any use tot the band in the studio the last 20 years. If he's right, that would mean a lot. Anyway, I hear a revitalised Quo, with the youngsters being given some free rein by the head honcho. They finally sound like a proper band again.
