Brian loses his sh*t in Brisbane :-(
It appears that the only thing that the cameraman did was film BM when BM asked him not to. It goes with the territory. If it upsets him then he can comfort himself in the knowledge of what else fame and fortune has b...

Roger Taylor OBE
These days I think once it is made public then it has already been accepted. They put out the feelers first to see whether it will be accepted or not to avoid embarrassment. Bowie was offered a CBE and a knighthood an...

New Book
I have heard that Gary was warned off doing a Europe book. It seems QPL were fucked off about the US book, hence no reprint. They seem to prefer inaccurate shit to decent pieces of work created by true fans.

(untitled)
I don't know if this has been commented on before but for 5 consecutive albums, starting with Sheer Heart Attack, the first single from each album opens without an instrumental intro. Just vocal. Accident or on purpos...

A question about Earls Court
Whenever I've put up my good pics they get nicked immediately and end up being the cover for some shit bootleg. However I'm not bothered about these two. One is a very bad but intriguing shot from about halfway back i...

A question about Earls Court
I was at the first night of Earl's Court and I can confirm there were all sorts of circus acts in the huge foyer. There was also a bagpipe band that eventually marched into the auditorium. It was quite weird. There we...

A Paul Prenter story with unseen pictures of Queen
The Real Wizard wrote: Yep. Looks like the family is feigning interest in him because they might see some cash from a book deal or something. Cut from the same cloth. Bit harsh if you haven't actually met them.

Press Release: Queen + Bejart - Ballet For Life DVD/BR Release
I'm lost for words. Who the hell will buy this? Surely it must have a VERY limited audience. Even the convention types that buy 2 copies of everything that even has a fucking Q on it will think twice. I'm not sure Ver...

Beware Who Owns the Story
Mmmmm, there are a few sides to this and I'm sure we all believe what we have been told by anyone 'close' to the action' at the time. For what it's worth I have a friend that I went (as part of the Royal Family) to ma...

BREXIT
If the ignorant people had all the facts in the first place we would have voted REMAIN. I'm not saying that ALL Leavers are ignorant. Some have very good cases to make. But the day after the referendum a woman in our...

Live Killers 40th 3CD release 2019
I don't think you can call a live album a 'compilation'. Unless of course it is made up of live tracks already released (which Live Killers wasn't). And not really a re-re-release since it wasn't included in the 2011...
