Status Quo Sound Check Brighton part1

How empty the rock world is without Rick,, , you try to get the sweeping shredders play 2 hours of metronome precise 12 bar blues on 11 gauge strings,,,, Rick was a beast of a rhythm guitar player !! And a great singer !!

Saw their two end of the road concerts in the 80s at Selhurst Park and Milton Keynes. The last gigs with the 'proper' line-up - my calves hurt for days afterwards from bouncing up and down for two hours each night. Everyone thinks Quo's music is easy but if you've ever tried playing a Quo song like Quo play it, then you'll appreciate the amount of ballsy effort it takes to make that unique sound. I don't have may heroes but Parfitt and Rossi are two of them - they made me want to be them. Plus their harmonies are often overlooked - top, top band.

Heroes since 1972, first got to see them play live two nights running in 1976, last time was 2015. 😢 Although it’s only FR remaining from the original line up, I still enjoy the band.

I adore these guys - they brought so much joy to my life. I’ve been once at their concert long time ago in Saint-Petersburg, Russia. It was in concert hall with perfect acoustic. They blew me away in seconds…

From 1975 till now fan Still miss you Rick

Saw these guys a few years ago. There were several big bands on the card but these boys were head and shoulders the best.

Made some good stuff over the years total respect to them especially Francis

I once saw Status Quo live and it was a great performance. You can’t keep old rockers down,they still play as well as ever.

Best rock band.....ever. still miss Rick and Alan, now rocking with angels.

Such an underated guitarist is rossi better then Keith Richard and ronnie Wood

Sound 1000 times better than any Simon Cowell boy band just on the sound check

God bless Rick. Legend!

I was at the Brighton Centre that night!! Great gig

Ah, classic Rick at the end 😂

Rick still sadly missed.

"This is mic number one isn't this a lot of fun! .........where did you come from?!"🤣🤣💜👍✌️ I've seen Quo live more than any other band why? Because they're tight, good, old fashioned rock and rollers, who always give a great show✌️👍💜😊
