Status Quo & Manfred Mann

Well, its Saturday night and it's Wembley Arena.. I am off to shoot the mighty Status Quo. One of the greatest bands of our generation. I have been shooting them since I became involved with them in about 1977. It's funny how, even now all of these years later I really enjoy shooting them and watching them. They are a great band and great chaps as well. Supporting them tonight was Manfred Mann's Earth Band.. Now this was also very exciting as I haven't photographed them since the Roundhouse in London in or around 1976. Bloody hell I am old now.. They were absolutely fantastic. They played some of their hits like, The Mighty Quinn (written by my mate Bob). Blinded By the Light and Davy's on The Road Again.. They were brilliant.
