Audience reaction is already causing It's only in the past few months, since the promoters grief, as Rossi points out later: "We've earning very release of Piledriver, that Quo have made any had a lot of trouble with heavies.

So it's messages come up from the side of the stage little money" significant that the four members of the band telling them to sit down, but it's pointless trying have stuck it out together all this time. to tell them. Says Rossi: "No point in breaking up, really. "Once an audience is up, you can't tell them to sit down again. At Leeds, If I'd left we'd either have had to go back to work, which none of us wanted all of a sudden, the audience just surged. I've never seen anything like it... anyway, or we'd have gone in another band and started again. At one gig this guy got up on stage with us and the heavies dragged him off "So it was sensible to stay together. We didn't actually think, 'We've got by his hair and just slung him out into the street. That's terrible. He came to stay together and make it', but on reflection that's how it was.

Funny though -even now it's costing us a hell of anything else which can be autographed. One young lady is even a lot to keep going.

Rossi describes their way of getting back on their feet again as "going in Some nights, the band will have another blow in their dressing room the backdoor". So from supporting T. Rex they then went on tour with after the gig. But tonight it's just a case of unwinding, before joining their Slade, playing as many gigs as humanly possible. "Everything helped us wives for the drive home in the maroon limo. You just know that Status -yeah, the Slade tour helped." Quo have earned every inch of chrome on that car. Steve Clarke The yardstick of a band's success is when their old record company re-release their old material. So just when Quo had Piledriver (Vertigo) selling and in the album charts, good old Pye started putting old products - NME OCTOBER6 - on the market. Rossi was not unnaturally annoyed.

Everybody says, 'Yeah, Security seems to be at premium at Status Quo gigs, it would appear. that's a load of bullshit and it's a bit of this and it's very riffy and it's all very Certainly it was at this one.

  • Status Quo – 03
    STATUS QUO – 03. Juni 2019 – Berlin, Tempodrom – Support: JIMMY GEE – Text und Fotos: Holger Ott Nach einem Abstecher in akustische Gefilde vor zwei Jahren sind STATUS QUO nun doch endlich wieder bei dem, was die Fans an ihnen so lieben, dem guten alten geraden Rock. Selbstverständlich extrem gitarrenlastig und natürlich voll verstärkt. Sie sind 'Back' und kündigen das lange im Voraus auf ihren schwarzweißen Plakaten an. Der Tourauftakt findet ausgerechnet in Berlin statt, dem Ort, in dem das akustische Konzert ausfallen musste. Sänger, Gitarrist, Bandgründer und letztes verbliebenes Originalmitglied FRANCIS ROSSI merkt man, trotz über fünfzigjähriger Bühnenerfahrung die Nervosität an. Er hat mehrere Texthänger und schwafelt in den Songpausen oft unverständliches 'Genuschel' ins Mikrofon. Er wird sich sicherlich im Verlauf der Tournee wieder fangen und zu gewohnter Souveränität zurückfinden, denn er macht für sein Alter doch einen körperlich sehr fitten Eindruck. Ebenso fit und garantiert nicht minder nervös und aufgeregt ist der Protagonist des Vorprogramms. JIMMY GEE aus ehemals Berlin-Spandau bestreitet, lediglich mit einer akustischen Gitarre bewaffnet, den Support. Dazu gehört schon einiges an Mut und Selbstvertrauen. Eine halbe Stunde wird ihm gewährt und in dieser Zeit möchte er es erreichen, das Publikum von sich zu überzeugen, was ihm bereits nach den ersten drei Songs gelingt. Wer ist dieser JIMMY GEE, fragen sich sicher viele Besucher im Tempodrom. Vorabinformation gibt es leider so gut wie keine, aber wie der Zufall so spielt, ist meinem Kollegen MIKE und mir JIMMY bereits seit über einem Jahrzehnt bestens bekannt und wir haben ihn in der Vergangenheit oft in seinem Studio besucht. Umso größer unsere Freude, ihn auf der Bühne im Tempodrom zu sehen.

    DIRECCIÓN DE COMUNICACIÓN SOCIAL Nezahualcóyotl, México, a 27 de abril de 2013 CS-0104 MÁS DE 120 MIL PERSONAS DISFRUTAN DE HISTÓRICO CONCIERTO DE LA LEGENDARIA BANDA STATUS QUO EN NEZAHUALCÓYOTL Con la presentación de la legendaria Banda de rock inglesa Status Quo, la Ciudad Deportiva del Bordo de Xochiaca vibró con las voces, el baile y la euforia de más de 120 mil personas, en su mayoría jóvenes, devotas del rock, que con armonía y orden disfrutaron del repertorio ofrecido por sus ídolos, en este magno e histórico concierto, del cual fueron partícipes en los festejos del Cincuentenario de la Creación del Municipio de Nezahualcóyotl. El alcalde Juan Zepeda Hernández, que personalmente supervisó el operativo para realizar este concierto, manifestó que el propósito del evento se logró al cien por ciento, primero que de manera gratuita se agasajara a la población del municipio con esta agrupación de calidad mundial y que forma parte de la celebración “Es un orgullo ser de Neza”, y segundo, pero no menos importante, que los asistentes se comportaron de manera ejemplar, pues fueron a disfrutar del magno espectáculo. Indicó que de acuerdo con informes de la Dirección de Seguridad Pública municipal, se concluyó con saldo blanco, lo que pone de manifiesto que Neza está listo para recibir y disfrutar de eventos de gran nivel, y reiteró que por ello no se cansa de decir que “Es un orgullo ser de Neza”. Recordó que hace 10 años Status Quo vino por primera vez a Nezahualcóyotl, y que al igual que el municipio, la banda cumple 50 años de carrera, por lo que hubo una especie de hermandad este sentido, donde entonces la celebración fue compartida para disfrute de la población de la localidad.

  • Status Quo Keep It Real
    Downloaded from simongarfield.com © Simon Garfield 2005 Status Quo Keep It Real Two men, three chords and 30 years of unchanged melody. Night & Day (Mail on Sunday), July 1997 ‘They take a vein from your leg, and chop it up four times.’ Rick Parfitt, the big-haired, blond singer-guitarist with Status Quo for the past 30 years, is reliving his quadruple heart-bypass operation of a few weeks ago. It was a rock star thing, he says, brought about by women, divorcing women, smoking, alcohol, drugs and almost three decades of climbing on stage to ask people if they would, or would not, like to ride in a paper plane. He’d come back from a tour of Japan and Australia, and he was looking really good. He was tanned. He felt great, at 48. He got a pain in his right arm, but was always one of those people who believed that if you ignore something long enough, eventually it will go away. So he went on tour with the band again, this time to Dubai. When he returned, the pain reappeared. ‘I was making some tea at home, and I was walking up the stairs,’ he says, ‘and this time the pain went across my chest and down my other arm, and it intensified and dropped me to my knees. At this point I can’t move or breathe and I think I’m dying.’ When it eased, he called his doctor in Harley Street, and went to see him at three the following afternoon, and by nine he was under the knife.

  • Swinging Blue Jeans
    1 Chairman’s voice of appreciation Here we go again! As the years go by we are getting bigger and better without losing the friendly family atmosphere. Over the years we have raised thousands of pounds for various charities. This year we are concentrating on helping local homes that look after patients suffering from Alzheimer’s Disease and other types of dementia. We will also be donating additional money to Manton Village Hall to help towards the re-furbishment. It is our intention to concentrate on local charities where the money raised can make a difference to the local community. This year we are welcoming back the first professional act to perform at MantonFest, The Swinging Blue Jeans. They give me a chance to wander down memory lane and back to my wild youth! We are so fortunate to have Fred and Emma Goltz living in Manton Grange. They not only allow us use of the water meadow but, once again, are our main sponsor thus allowing us to develop this music festival, giving everyone a fantastic day out! Our dedicated volunteers and supporters have come up trumps again. The committee MantonFest Chairman - Roger Grant - Stuart Whant, Anne Morgan, Linda Yeardley and Becky Banning with the help of Denise Grant have made sure that all is running smoothly. Without them I could not organise this event. I would also like to give a big thanks to marlborough.news for all their support particularly Neil Goodwin who has put this programme together and Marina Rae who has tirelessly encouraged the advertisers to present their advertisements to you in this programme.
