More 2010 Shows.

Tickets are on sale for Quo at the Thy Rock festival, Denmark in June, and for gigs in Norway, Denmark and Finland in March and Sweden in July 2010.

jeudi, décembre 31, 2009 

Status Quo rockers Francis Rossi and Rick Parfitt, F1 champion Jenson Button and actor Patrick Stewart have been recognised with New Year Honours.

After "Rockin' All Over the World" for more than 40 years and for charity work, Parfitt and Rossi become OBEs.
Button is appointed an MBE, while there is a knighthood for rugby's four-time British Lions head coach Ian McGeechan.
Star Trek and X-Men star Stewart, after a triumphant return to the UK stage in recent years, also becomes a knight.
There have been more than 118 million worldwide record sales for Status Quo's Parfitt, 61, and Rossi, 60, whose hits include "Down Down" and "Whatever You Want".
After being honoured for services to music and charity, Parfitt admitted that he had "kind of given up hoping" for such recognition some years ago.
"To be perfectly honest with all the hard work we have put in over the years I accept it graciously," he added.
Rossi said: "You start off rebellious, a teenager in a band, but you end up being part of the establishment."
He added that the arrival of the letter announcing the honour had initially "frightened the pants off me... because it comes from the government".

Francis Rossi 'One Step at a Time' - Solo Tour - May 2010 Franics Rossi Album Cover

Live Nation are proud to announce that Francis will undertake his first ever solo tour in May 2010. The "One Step At A Time" tour, that takes the name of his solo album to be released by EarMUSIC, through Edel in April 2010, will take in six UK dates. He will be accompanied by an 8 piece band.

Francis commented, "I never stop writing songs and melodies but there have been many tracks over the years that just weren't right for Quo. These songs have been gathering dust in my mind for too long and now seems the right time to showcase them. It's a big step for me but I hope to see lots of the same faces out there on the road!"

13th May Birmingham Town Hall

Each band's donation, together with the hand written message that accompanied it, will be beautifully presented in a frame to create a very special piece of memorabilia.

Bidding starts on 11th October 2009, the auction with Quo's plectrums will run from Oct 25th to Nov 1st 2009.
