Camping it up
BOOGIE merchants Status Quo last night blew £75,000 on a party to celebrate 25 years of THAT riff.
The rockers hired their own train to ferry guests from London to Butlin's in Minehead where Quo's Rick Parfitt and Francis Rossi first met a quarter of a century ago.
Champagne and smoked salmon was served on the train. And there was party at the holiday centre after Quo's celebratory gig.
