Very disappointed. Nowhere near as good as previous performances. Vocals were very poor and often apperared returning artisit was not even playing the guitar. Also looked like he was ill, drunk or severely under the influence of drugs and struggled to stand. Why he took the lead vocals god only knows. What a shame for the Quo we all know and love to land up this way. We have gone every year without fail for the last 1o years. We will not be going again. Others we spoke to said the same. Francis and Rick must have felt very let down and embarrased.

Think we all need reassuring that Quo will return to the previous line up, and level of performance for the future.

I never thought I'd see them back together again but soooo glad that I have :o)
I grew up with Quo and after these 'reunion' gigs I remember why I loved them so much!
Rossi, Parfitt, Lancaster & Coghlan are the best live band that I have ever seen & they still have not lost any of their ability to rock a crowd better than anybody!
I am left with one question though... How do Rossi & Parfitt go back to being in the crap Quo that has evolved over the years!?
I suppose that time will tell but I for one will NEVER watch 'rubbish' Quo ever again.

I had not seen the band for about 25 years and so was much younger then as were the band and the audience. The audience seemed to take longer to warm up than the band did, suggesting that the band have stood the test of time better than many of their followers. The music still sounded as good to me as all those years ago, but have to confess to taking some time to recall all of the lyrics to some of the lesser well known songs that were played, but it was like being taken back in time. Only regrets were that the bank said very little throughout the concert, and that they omitted some of their early hits like Paper planes and Caroline (Which i would not have fogotten the words for). Biggest change I noticed in the group compared to 25+ years ago is that they do not rush around stage as much as in those early days (understandable) But overall very glad that I went, and took my 25 y/o son with me to see what old rock concerts were like.

I had not been to a Status Quo concert since 1979 - I had not wanted to. I moved on musically many years ago. They were the first real band that I got into and I have always had a soft spot for them. I have always kept on eye on them but never had the inclination to go to see the current line up - to me they were not the same band that they were in the golden period of the seventies.
However, when I saw that the Frantic Four were going to reunite for some final concerts, I could not resist. They were excellent - much better than anyone could have hoped for. The set list was very good - could have done with a longer 4,500 Hundred Times though.
The biggest surprise was Rick Parfitt. Unbelievably great rhythm guitar playing throughout - he was the real powerhouse throughout the concert.
Whilst there has been a lot of bitterness over the years, it appeared that all four members were enjoying themselves.
It is shame that only few fans in the UK will see this lineup but I am glad that I did!

Firstly, we parked for £1.50, all night, in London! unbelievable. Four of us (another frantic four) set off from Devon with wonderous anticipation on how Spud and Nuff were going to fit back in to the mighty Quo, after such a long time. We were not disappointed at all, we had good seats, although we prefer to stand as, I think, it creates slightly better atmosphere, and the show was fantastic, set me off with goose bumps! Back in Devon by 2 am, tired but very satisfied.
One message to the Quo, please come down to Devon again, soon.

What a fantastic show. It was the old Quo, driving rythym from Rick, great drums from John, Francis as usual the perfect showman and so good to see Alan on stage again. he struggles a bot with mobility but solid bass work and great vocals.

So good also not to hear medleys.

Well organised from start to finish. We had bought the meet and greet experience and tickets and were really pleased with the whole event. The 2 ladies organising the meet and greet were very friendly, helpful and informative and having been disappointed with a 'VIP Experience' from another company, this was an absolute delight.
The set itself was superb. Quo were on top form and no-one sat still - it was a night for old and young with well behaved children attending and those of us who are more mature remembering everything from the first time round. It was a joy to hear Alan Lancaster singing again and the whole performance transported true long term fans back to the days of youth and gave newer fans a once in a lifetime chance to hear the original Quo. We just had the best time ever and will be dining out on the experience for many years to come.

Excellent gig, some real surprises in there. Couple of small niggles: thought they might have done the full '4500 times', and no '"bit" in the middle of roadhouse blues. Apart from that, a really good night - the atmosphere was fantastic:-)

I go to see Quo at least once a year and have done for many years but to see the original line back together again was a very special event. It was the 70's when I got into Quo so to hear just the songs from that era was perfect for me and as far as I am concerned this was the golden age when all the best stuff was written and performed.

It was great to see the old Quo back together, I've been going to see them for 30 years!!!! but my hubby had never seen the original four and he stood up all show!
John can still give the sticks a good bashing and Alan is still agreat player/singer shame about his ankle!. I was at the original live show and have played the album then cd ever since.
All in all a FANTASTIC show. Missed Caroline and 'the bit' within Roadhouse Blues and Rollover lay down.

I bought this as a gift for my sisters 40th birthday. I would not normally spend this amount of money on a meet and greet. Firstly we are both fans of Quo but not die hard, go and see them every single concert, wear denims and a thousand badges fans. We have liked them since being kids and buy most of their albums if we like them.
The concert itself was good, although missing some of our personal favourites, most notibly Caroline & Rocking all over the world. It was upsetting to see Alan Lancaster not in full health but once on stage, you could not fault his playing or singing, brilliant. Rossi and Parfitt were, as always, amazing. John Coghlan also played well.
The meet and greet bit for me was a let down. I probably expected too much, but if that is what I should expect, then I will not do one again.
It was oversold, over regulated and it appeared that the "Frantic Four" did not want to be there meeting their fans. Alan Lancaster was a gent and talkative, John Coghlan seemed like he was out of place, Rossi at first a bit miserable but did get better as the meet and greet went on. Parfitt appeared to be the only one at ease.
For me it would have been better if there was less of us, a little more relaxed and personal. For us it was a massive experience not shared appreciated by those we had paid to do the meet and greet.

Shame, that too much time was given to the old line up, of Status Quo. Only 1 'old' song played of the really well known hits. Thay can all still play great guitar, but frankly, they should stick to Rick and Francis, and stick to what they're good at. Won't be going to any more.
