“Can’t see us doing it one more time”
Speaking to the Mirror, Francis Rossi has conceded that this could be it for the band following the conclusion of this tour.
“I don’t think we will go again,” he revealed. “And as far as the rest of the band are concerned it’s the last tour too. I just can’t see us doing it one more time”.
Rossi also explained why he played down the potential end for the band.
“I didn’t want to put this current tour out, saying it’s the last one ever. I did it once and was then coerced into coming back, but that’s another whole other f****** story”, he said.
The musician continued: “Who knows they might offer a huge amount of money to do the Quo again but I don’t think so”.
“I am hesitant to call it the last ever but I just can’t see it continuing to be honest”.
In September 2021, Status Quo founding member Alan Lancaster a former bandmate of Rossi’s, passed away aged 72 after suffering with Multiple Scelrosis. More on this here.
