About event
An Evening of Francis Rossi's Songs from the Status Quo Songbook and more...
After over 100 very successful performances in the UK, the legendary frontman of STATUS QUO is bringing his new show entitled "An Evening of Francis Rossi's Songs from the Status Quo Songbook and More..." to Europe. In May 2026, Francis, who has always had a large fan base here, will also be coming to Germany.
The ten German shows will feature songs that he has never performed in this format before. The evening with Francis Rossi offers – in addition to the most important QUO classics – first-hand backstage stories. Francis talks about his over 100 appearances on Top Of The Pops, the legendary opening of the Live Aid concert in 1985, his life with Rick Parfitt, the hits, the other stars of the industry and the misadventures around the world. All seasoned with Francis' renowned wit and British humour.
Fans are in for a real treat. The Mail on Sunday wrote: "When he strums with a captivating fluency, all the nervous energy suddenly becomes heartwarming... life-affirming... arm-waving."
The Spectator added: "His voice is strangely effective in a more intimate setting, while the three-chord cliché is quickly shed. He's also a really good lead guitarist." And the Daily Express said: "Francis Rossi captivates audiences with stories from his six-decade career..."
A great career and a long one. Francis Rossi will celebrate his 77th birthday in May 2026, on what may be his last guest tour.
On the 'An Evening of Francis Rossi's Songs from the Status Quo Songbook and more...' tour, the living rock legend will once again play many of his typical hits that made Quo famous. Francis presents some of his personal favorite songs and tells exciting stories from his incredible life in the music circus.
You think you know Francis? No, not quite yet...!
The story begins with the first hit 'Pictures of Matchstick Men' (1968) and continues to this day. Francis will play primarily on his Acoustasonic guitar, which he says is "basically a Telecaster, but more suited to a show of this type - but still has the sound and voice of a Tele."
Perhaps the last word, as always, should go to Francis Rossi himself: "You know what? I really love this. Finally I can do what I've always wanted to do, which is just play without turning the volume control to 11. It took me my whole career to step back and really just get simple. I'll let the songs speak for themselves."
And for anyone who wants to talk to Francis: There's an offer to buy upgrade packages and meet the star in person behind the scenes!
