One of the longer term rock feuds was resolved unexpectedly in March when Status Quo’s Francis Rossi and Rick Parfitt buried the hatchet with their former bassist Alan Lancaster. The feud had originated in 1985 when the band “split” only to reform without Lancaster. A High Court battle ensued and the relationship between the former friends was broken seemingly forever. However, the trio met after a Quo in Australia (where Lancaster now lives). “Status Quo will, as they are, continue to do their thing. The most important thing is that our relationship has been reinstated, and we basically have the same camaraderie and spirit as was in the early days. There is no other ‘hidden meaning’ that should be construed. We are just pleased our personal relationship is back on track,” Lancaster said at the time.
