OT - Which of these bands have I NOT seen live?

Please tell me you haven't seen Status Quo live? You would come down in a notch in my estimation, unless it was an involuntary act. I struggle with anyone actually buying a ticket to see them!

Do you mean the Frantic Four or the later end-of-the-pier tribute act? The former rocked imo

Either incarnation and whilst every ones taste is different, ground breaking, innovative and varied Quo or their "music" certainly weren't. Music for those with a full frontal lobotomy IMO!

In my defence Swale, I was but 14. I'd competed at Nottingham Regatta and we'd all stayed over for the evening's entertainment and it turned out to be Mud who'd just had a hit with "Up the airy mountain". Despite Mud, we enjoyed our evening. Our friends at Nottingham & Union Boat Club informed us that Quo would be appearing a few weeks later and said if we wanted to pop back (Notts is only half an hour on the train....) they'd ensure we got tickets. It was their "Matchstickmen" period. We went back and had a good night out as we usually did. Never had the desire to see either group a 2nd time though.....................

Your forgiven Ma! I put Quo in the category if I was out having a night out with friends and my brain was suitably enhanced then fine but to go and listen to? Really? To listen to at home really?

They peaked in 1968 with ‘Pictures of Matchstick Men’ imo. Been downhill ever since and I wouldn’t admit to having seen them even if I had, which I haven’t...honest!

Never had any doubt about your taste in music rA and as for them being popular, as the late great Frank Zappa said, "most people wouldn't recognise good music if it came up and bit them on the ass"
