We Will Rock You
This afternoon, rather than being at work I opted for going to see this musical (written by Queen and Ben Elton).
Well... What can I say? It was absolutely stupendous! Was about three hours long (including interval) but didn't feel anywhere near that long! The general story is your usual post-apocalyptic world where the outcasts from the new society rally against the system and revolt. This time though, the apocalypse is not a war, but rather the death of Rock and the entire show is based around the songs of Queen. Frigging superb it was Here's the song list so you can see if you can figure out how the story ran Innuendo Radio Ga Ga I Want To Break Free Somebody To Love Killer Queen Play The Game Under Pressure A Kind Of Magic I Want It All Headlong No-One But You (Only The Good Die Young) Ogre Battle (Instrumental) One Vision Who Wants To Live Forever Flash Seven Seas Of Rhye Don't Stop Me Now Another One Bites The Dust Hammer To Fall These Are The Days Of Our Lives We Will Rock You We Are The Champions We Will Rock You (Fast Version) Bohemian Rhapsody I'd recommend it to anyone who loves Queen, or anyone that loves a good, tongue-in-cheek rock musical
