IQ was supposed to play earlier this year in Uden in the Netherlands
and Nancy in France but Covid had these 2 dates canceled….
and then seeing that at the Colos-Saal in Aschaffenburg, Germany
on January 24th, 2020 had recorded the concert to compensate
those who wanted to see them, they decided to stream the concert
from in Aschaffenburg, Germany and this happened on May 24th…

unfortunately I only come to know it now and
it was not the only streaming IQ released and lost by me,
the other was on October 24th

After streaming in May they claimed:

"After the incredible reaction to the recent live streaming of our Show Of Resistance concert, we decided to make it available on a limited edition double CD as part of the Archive Collection series," says the band.

The double CD includes all 2 hours and 15 minutes of music
from the video and comes in a 6-frame digi file (no digipak - no plastic used!) with a 4-page booklet and introductory text by Peter Nicholls.
The £ 12 proceeds from this release will help the band recoup some of the losses we've made this year by having to cancel gigs.
We hope to have copies in early July, but it's available
for presale on the IQ website now . "

Recorded live at the Colos-Saal in Aschaffenburg, Germany
on January 24th, 2020



Following the remarkable success of the stream on May 22, they said:

"After the positive feedback we've had since then, we went through some of the archives to see what else we can do to reconnect and found some footage of the band playing the entire Ever album live in Germany in 2018. Audio is It was released as part of the Ever 25th Anniversary package, but the video has never been used or seen until now, so hopefully it will be something people will enjoy and that we can all share the live experience together again. "

The "Ever Live Stream" was broadcast on YouTube Live on Saturday 24 October at 20:00 (BST).

Unfortunately, I lost both streams and I will see that I am
more careful from now on

And to retrieve a news in advance I can give it….

I'm talking about the show that IQ will do in September

In London to celebrate their 40 years of activity from which
the show will surely extract a brilliant CD
perhaps also containing some new songs.

Neo-proggers IQ have announced a live show to celebrate their 40th anniversary next year. They will play London's Islington Assembly Hall on September 4.

"Crikey, 40 years (well, next year)! We'd love to see you all there
to celebrate with us," the band say"

the prices of their shows are always very low for a show
that is worth much more than the pounds spent

IQ will also play their traditional Christmas Show
229 Club, London, Friday 10th December &
De Boerderij, Zoetermeer, Saturday 11th December.




From 04 September the IQ40 Tour will start
