Well, I guarantee they won't play for under a certain amount of jack. No of course not, thats just common sense, but dont blame the band for the prices

I'm a huge fan, seen them about a dozen times or so,, since the late 80's.

I never have understood why they are not so big in the USA, the US is a country that likes its rock music and that is what Quo are, good old fashioned rock, if you like AC/DC , Rush, or stuff like that then you would like Quo, considering they sold over 100 million records, had more hit singles in the UK than any other band and opened Live Aid in 1985 it surprises me they are unknown there,

 

They might be getting on a bit (but arent most good bands nowadays...) but they put on one hell of a live show, they are loud and just rock out for 2hours.

 

Probably best to start with the best of double cd they put out recently -

 

Status Quo - Pictures: 40 Years of Hits

 

Otherwise for a standard album then it has to be 'Hello'.

 

Looking forward to the Uk tour at the end of the year.
