Quo Live

Via: CMU

Status Quo will play their first ever outdoor gig in Scotland, at the Knockhill racing circuit in Fife on 23 Aug. It will be the first time a music concert has been held at the venue, which can hold up to 10,000 fans.

Guitarist Rick Parfitt said: "Me and [lead singer] Francis [Rossi] and the rest of the band are looking forward to playing in front of a feisty Scottish crowd. This is the first time we have played outdoors in Scotland in the summer and, weather permitting, it should be a great gig. Generally, Scottish audiences have always been a very feisty lot and Quo over the years have become very popular up here. Hopefully people will like this venue and we can put it on the map so that more people will come here in the future."

The band has had 58 British hit singles, and will celebrate their 40th anniversary in 2005.
