  1. This shows that Freddie was Queen

    I fully agree that you don't have to read music to write songs and "be a musician". However, the study of theory makes it a whole lot easier. You can bang away at the piano for ages before you come across something th...

  2. This shows that Freddie was Queen

    It is widely known and acknowledged that Freddie Mercury passed Grade 5 of the Associated Royal Schools of Music practical piano Grade 5 exam. That would have have been impossible without being able to read music.

  3. This shows that Freddie was Queen

    Thanks for that Mike. I just seem to remember someone saying in an interview (maybe Brian himself) that he couldn't read music. The fan club says "At the age of five, Brian's parents enrolled him in piano lessons. Bri...

  4. This shows that Freddie was Queen

    This is my OPINION. I can see where Amir is coming from, even if he is not expressing it too well (and tending to wind people up as a result). One of the key things that is relevant to this discussion is Musical Theor...

  5. Hangman acetate or John S Stuart or deceives us

    Gosh, it's all gone a bit homophobic hasn't it? I'd quite like to suck a dick and get my stupid ass fucked thank you very much.

  6. Brian and Roger Working on Freddie and Jacko Tracks

    Here we go again. Watch out Anita.

  7. First Five Albums Out This Week with Bonus Tracks!

  8. Brian "Freddie is in my thoughts every day"

  9. An Archivist's view of the SiS exhibition

    Yeah, I'd believe it was a joke response too, if he hadn't used an insult at the end.

  10. An Archivist's view of the SiS exhibition

    Looks like the idiot's back to his old self. Got something against the working-class Greg? The Queen-product-buying working class? What class are you exactly? Or aspire to be?

  11. ALBUM BOX SET

    It really does beg the question - Why is there no official announcement? Are Universal and QPL really so un-organized? OR, is it meant to be hushed up until the fans have already bought the individual albums and then,...

  12. Queen40: special 40th Anniversary Box Set

  14. ALBUM BOX SET

    Now it seems that after we've bought the remasters on 14th March thay are releasing them in a box on 4th April (with room in the box for a "further 10 releases later in the year").

  15. Queen 40

    I got an email about that as well. So if the release date is March 14th...why April 4th for the box???? Surely not hoping that the more mental amongst us wil not be able to wait and buy the individual albums on the 14...

  16. An Archivist's view of the SiS exhibition

    In all fairness, the quality of someone's English is not an indicator of their intelligence.

  17. if you met brian may, what would you ask him to sign?

    Well, in the words of the Mother Abyss from The Sound Of Music. "When God closes a door, somewhere he opens a window". I don't believe in God but it still sounds nice. Good luck.

  18. Royal Philharmonic

    Did anyone go to the Royal Albert Hall in 1981 to see the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra playing Queen songs. It was recorded and released but I'm after any footage or pics.

  19. is stormtrupers in silluettos touring around the UK?

    I would say a resounding NO. You've got a week to get to London. Personally I don't think it's worth it, but others do.

  20. if you met brian may, what would you ask him to sign?

    I was actually trying to think of something positive to say but I was faced with such an array of shit it couldn't be helped. Actually had a top day with my other half and an old friend. A few jars and tapas. Very hap...
