We've lost the Status Quo! RIP Rick Parfitt

Some of the greatest, guitar driven, head banging pop tracks, produced over a long and succesful career.
I was provileged to be at Wembley, and to see them open Live Aid with "Rockin' All Over The World". They sure did just that!

You wonder who is going to be next everytime you put the news on, with still another week to go of a dreadful year for losses of musical icons.

RIP Rick.

Just read about it and it kind of stung a little deeper since I had the walls in my room jam packed with Status Quo images much to my parents chagrin haha.
So one of the for real ones is no more. :cry:
Saw them 1975 over here! My first concert as a boy and man what a live band! Then they were a rock'n'roll band and I had to check the set list on the web and they played Junior's Wailing, I Saw the Light, Backwater, Just Take Me, Little Lady/Most of the Time, Forty-Five Hundred Times, Claudie, Gerdundula, Roll Over Lay Down, Big Fat Mama, Don't Waste My Time, Roadhouse Blues, Caroline and Bye Bye Johnny !!! Man! That was wild! 8-)
I gotta make a little home festival and listen to that again!
Thanks for the memories!
