Rocking all over the world

There is something pure and soul-cleansing about good ol’ rock’n’roll. Especially when played in the uncompromising and uncomplicated manner that Status Quo does. The shocker on the night came at the post-concert dinner, where trivia teasers revealed the band’s biggest hit, Rockin’ all over the world, was actually written by CCR’s John Fogarty. Still, Status Quo rocked, in that manner that 60-year-old stalwarts do.
It was a measure of age (and taste) that my gang of mid-to-late-30-somethings preferred Status Quo to Nickelback; who rocked their perfomance, by the way.
Nickelback is the Bryan Adams of tweendom today.
