It's a very complicated op but let's hope he pulls through.

Saw him supporting the reformed original Status Quo (the frantic four) at Hammersmith just a month ago at the end of March. He was brilliant as ever. Standing ovation and calls for encore.Great stuff!!!

WILKO LATEST - OFFICIAL STATEMENT:

Wilko is recovering following a nine hour operation on Wednesday in which doctors successfully removed a pancreatic tumour.

The head of the medical team treating Wilko said that they were happy with his condition.

Wilko will stay under very close observation for the next few days. Although cautiously optimistic the team have to stress that it is very early days yet.

The family thank everyone for their good wishes and ask for some privacy at this time so they can support Wilko with his recovery in peace.

Saw 'em at the Newlands Tavern (now The Ivy House) in '74 where they blew the roof off. Amazing gig.
