This was the loudest and best concert I had ever been to; Support act Shanghai were bloody hurting my ears but Quo ramped it up further when they came on stage opening with one of my all time favourite Quo tracks Juniors Wailing, also impressed with several tracks from Blue for You Album notably: is there a better way, Rain, Mystery song then the usuals Caroline as encore Forty five hundred times, big fat mamma, don't waste my time. Had seen the band twice before this in 74 and 75 but this was and still remains my top concert. I remained a loyal fan seeing them in Paris, Holland and venues all over the UK up to and including 1982. When they ditched hard rock, John Coghlan and eventually Alan Lancaster and became a pop rock commercial group. I gave up on them.
Saw them twice more: in 2000 and I think 2006 in Perth Western Australia entertainment centre and the famous in last century tour at Burswood Theatre. The old stuff was still good but can't stand the pop crap.
Shame if they had stuck to the hard rock formula I believe they would have been as big as AC/DC.
