"I presume you might know the sketch 'Dinner For One', including the famous sentence: 'same procedure like every year'?!! And when I look at this here tonight, I get remembered to exactly that one. - Grandfather is dancing with his grandson, and mami with her daughter. This is Rock'n'Roll for everybody, and for every generation, never getting out of fashion during the past 40 years. Because that's the time this guys from Great Britain do exist as a bandso far. Always the same round the clock the whole year, never changing and everything sounds somehow the same. But this is the company secret of Status Quo, which keeps 'em alive for eternal, even they stop playing live on stage. Yeah okay, it is physically not possible, so let's live for the moment don't think about tomorrow and not about yesterday. Rockin'g like hell always the same way and going for the strategy: rocking all over the world. - Jes... the venue is crowded fitting in aprox 1.300 fans of all ages and party has just started. The Kilimandscharo is steaming hotter than the Ätna, and the waves of sounds are fightng with the temperature's boiling hot spot, at least within the first 30 rows. I wouldn't like to be in there in the middle, 'cause I don't fancy to make my testament yet. It’s
Showtime in the truest sense of the word. Status Quo let the balls
rolling, always great and always the same way, and these oldies are
still youthful like alyways, and always again and again. And
we oldies rock along as well and get young and cool again. Yes, you
should see us. Every hardrocker in this world would get jealous
about this view here. This is true hard stuff and an absolut
serious, crazy party in hell. It's knocking you out and the enthusiasm
is releasing a chainreaction. Take it easy, don't give a f.... about
conventions. or difficult advanced tunes or extra quality. It's
partytime. Status Quo are rocking like always, I told you before, and
the blow us away. You can't excape..... and we are feeling like 25 (some
of us in here are anyway only that young) Rick Parfitts comment on that
with his sexy smile: ' I became 58 three days ago, and I'm still feeling
like 57.' Okidok, he can say that, because nobody believes him anyway. |
