Queen - Any fans? :D

Queen (Well minus Freddie and John plus Paul) are to release a new album this September. It will be Queen's first new material album since Made In Heaven (1995).

I for one will be getting this and will be trying my damnest best to get tickets to a concert.

So anyone else Queen fans? Going to get this album? If not, why not? Because it isn't a Queen with Freddie piece of work?

Hehe. I see what you mean.

Oh hell yeah.

Wembley 1986 rocked.

*I was 8.....

As did Knebworth 1986.
As did the Freddie Tribute show.

I missed the 2005 tour with Paul, but I will go to this one. Bought the DVD though and it really was surprisingly good.

Soooo 13th October - O2 arena for me *I hate the O2, but it's the nearest venue...*

Hmm I will prob get it but im not sure how good it will be without Freddy.

MarcLister · 23-03-2008, 18:29

Half the reason I want to get it. To see what it is like without Freddie and Deacon.

Well it's only half of Queen really, so I don't know how appropriate I feel the Queen name is for it.

It's just Brian May and Roger Taylor... I expect the music will be good, but it won't be Queen.

Got to agree with that. There's no doubt there's some serious talent there, but Queen included Mercury and Deacon. Should be a different name IMO, similar to Guns n Roses need renaming...

Will listen with interest though

MarcLister · 23-03-2008, 20:00

Hence its called "Queen + Paul Rodgers"! Not "Queen & Paul Rodgers" but "Queen + Paul Rodgers".

It'll be good but it won't be the Queen we know and love.

Nutcase · 24-03-2008, 18:49

Yeah but Queen was Mercury, May, Taylor and Deacon, so should be a couple of -'s there too

/pedant

I think we think the same tho
