Quo tour still on

QUO'S TOUR is still ON, despite Francis Rossi collapsing with chest pains in Lausanne, Switzerland, last week.

The group's remaining five European dates have been cancelled to ensure he's fit for the British shows.

"It's not as drastic as it sounded at first," said a spokeswoman for the group last week.

"He collapsed when he came off stage, and the doctor diagnosed exhaustion. The chest pains seem to have been caused by the oil and water mixture they used for the smoke machine. That has been rectified."

Status Quo flew home last week to ready themselves for their massive 34-date British tour.
