» Review: Status Quo – Quofestive

Status Quo’s festive show brought mixed blessings this evening. Kim Wilde hit the first Yuletide note with ‘Rockin’ Around The Christmas Tree’, before an impressive Roy Wood led his Rock & Roll Band triumphantly through those ambitious Move and Wizzard singles. Despite their undeniable stadium skills and Francis Rossi’s humour, the Quo’s set started to drag with numerous medleys and middling album tracks between the big hits. The seasonal celebrations finally returned, along with Wilde and Wood, for an cheerful encore of Christmas classics. For the legions of fans on the floor, tonight was solid Quo, but I remained unconverted.

» Brighton Lights 31

Our new programme for thelatest.tv sees Juice FM presenter Guy Lloyd investigate all manner of things. He starts off with chart-topping band The Hoosiers who were mega-successful a couple of years ago, were dropped by their major label and have become fashionably independent. Their chart-topping album cost £1 million to record, their new album £100 and we reckon it's just as good. We have exclusive footage of this new record. Guy does crazy-golfing with them, checks out their sound-check and witnesses the fans' adoration of the band at Audio in Brighton. In future shows Guy will be doing waxing, Dot Cotton, air guitar and needs your suggestions for more crazy things (or people) to do. Send to bill@thelatest.co.uk
