I hate it when people buy stuff just because an artist has died. thumbs-down-clipart12

I had a argument with a barmen in a local pub on Christmas eve about this, he said "Hey Dave, what is the best Quo album to buy?" I replied, "I bet you bought albums by David Bowie, The Eagles, ELP and Prince this year as well".
His answer . "Yes I did"

I got it for Christmas. Purposely not listened to snippets before now as I knew I was getting it.

Will have a few listens over the next few days and let you know what I think.

Despicable might be too strong a word but I can't think of anything else.

Morbid? Don't understand that attitude that you wait for someone to pass away before buying one of their albums.

That's a good point actually perhaps it is to do with people buying it for pressies?

I know what you mean, but perhaps some of it's to do with all the radio play artists get when someone dies, maybe it re-ignites an old interest or creates a new interest.

Perhaps that is fairer way at looking at it ;-|

frozenhero: Just heard RAOTW in a radio broadcast from Wembley (women's football european championship finale) Jul 31, 2022 19:13:45 GMT

frozenhero: It's been over a year since anyone posted in the shoutbox. Is there anything that can be done to maybe gently revive this forum? Aug 10, 2023 21:27:31 GMT

mortified: This message board is almost redundant. I look in every day, just to check on things. But very few come on here any more. The band winding down will be a contributing factor I'm sure. It's not really social media in any other sense. Aug 24, 2023 10:20:51 GMT

PsychedeliCon: Many other communities that used to operate forums have switched over to using Discord Servers these days, which are a much quicker form of discussion. Also doesn't help that Quo haven't released anything new in quite a while. Oct 22, 2023 8:48:01 GMT

frozenhero: I use Discord a lot, but somehow I can't see the majority of Quo fans switching to it. It's much more geared towards a younger demographic. Also, things get unwieldy quite quickly. I've always liked forums.... Oct 23, 2023 16:30:33 GMT

badpenny: Ja, Mac, ich bleibe hier! Jul 19, 2024 9:58:41 GMT

mortified: Aye. We're just watching. Lurking in the background ready to pounce on any would be interlopers. Spammers beware. We know where you live

Mac: Hi Mortified, sorry I missed you at Blackpool on the State of Quo Waterloo gig...... Sept 4, 2024 21:17:53 GMT

Mac: I'll pop back in November to see if anyone has replied..... :thx:

Sept 4, 2024 21:19:09 GMT

mortified: Howdy Mac. No worries. It was a busy place! I saw loads of people I half recognised from the old message board but was never sure enough to approach anyone. You can look a right dick if you get it wrong

Mac: Its been a while..... Nov 3, 2024 22:12:44 GMT

badpenny: And don't forget that we also control the Supreme Court, which means that we now control all three branches of the United States! Which, in turn. means that, should anything go wrong, all of the blame shall rightfully fall upon noproblems and mortified Nov 6, 2024 8:43:11 GMT *

mortified: I get the blame for most things at home anyway, so it's nothing new to me
