  1. Freddie was much better than most people say during Magic Tour

    Live at Wembley 86 was the first time I had actually SEEN Queen perform, before that the only thing I owned was the Greatest Hits Platinum Collection and from that point of view, I was absolutely blown over by the pow...

  2. made in heaven

    I believe, according to Jim's book and FM: Untold Story that Freddie was in Montreux at the time of his mother's birthday (September)which is why he sent her flowers instead of a proper visit. So presumably he could h...

  3. Montserrat and the Freddie Mercury tribute concert

    Basically, from what I've gathered, when bands and artists heard about the tribute they put themselves forward because they admired Freddie or were influenced by him. Now Brian, John and Roger obviously wanted the day...

  4. ANNOUNCE: Freddie hosting "Countdown" TV 1985

    OK, please does anyone know why rapidshare has changed so now it wants me to download from net-mirror alpha/omega or something like that rather than just giving me the damn download. It then says the download is inval...

  5. Was freddie quite that nasty?

    My take on it is that, when I've thought about this and while I accept Freddie probably had quite a temper and was certainly no angel, the fact the band stayed together so long and remained friends until the end of Fr...

  6. ANATO 30th anniversary what a joke

    After putting off watching the dvd at all for about two weeks, (i got it for my birthday)after all the critiscism it's received on here, I put it on and was pleasantly surprised. There are no rarities, it is true but...

  7. Foo Fighters, Earls Court last night

    Taylor's drum kit said Captain Beyond on it and I agree the concert, lights, sound the whole package was amazing! Hope Roger enjoyed it as much as we did.

  8. Foo Fighters, Earls Court last night

    The concert was amazing as we managed to squeeze into second row! But even though I didn't find out until today that Roger was even there, (or I would have kept my eyes peeled) I did wonder at the time if he could be...

  9. Foo Fighters, Earls Court last night

    Was anybody else at this amazing concert and, before anyone demands this be put in the personal section, it says on Brian's website that Roger was present in the audience. (i didn't see him but he wos probably seated...

  10. Queen was actually racist?

    Peter Straker was one of Freddie's close friends wasn't he? and he is either black or mixed race. I personally find it highly unlikely that Freddie, having been brought up on an East African island, attended an Indian...

  11. Foo's - Earls Court

    Do you mean the 18th, cos if so, I'm going to that gig too! 3 floor tickets and 3 seated cos ticketmaster sold out of floor ones at standard price in ten minutes flat! I can't wait!

  12. Why?

    I think many younger people (myself included)get into Queen 1. because of their legendary status. Yes I know it's hard to believe but Queen are pretty well respected among my year at school before I even owned Greates...

  13. Robert Plant beats Freddie to no1 best singer

    For me, as a young listener, Plant, while clearly influential definitely doesn't possess the tone that Freddie always seemed able to put into his singing. Plant had and from what I've heard still has an astonishing vo...

  14. Tributes for Freddie, 1991

    As I was only a baby when Freddie died, I was wondering whether anyone knows which bands or musicians sent floral tributes for Freddie's funeral. I know Peter Straker and Elton John etc would have because they were cl...

  15. band aid

    Freddie actually said in one interview, and I can't recall which one right now that he was in Munich at the time of artists being rung up and asked to participate so information about it didn't filter through until la...

  16. QUEEN and AEROSMITH... A PARALLEL

    Can anyone say why Freddie hated Steve Tyler. According to the last post there was an argument between them but when was it, what was it about, etc? Personally I like both bands and frontmen and they don't seem like c...

  17. Freddie Participant At Fashion Aid 1985

    who does he chase round the stage at the end?! at first it looked like Bob Geldof and he wasn't too impressed but it's hard to tell.

  18. YOUNG QUEEN FANS

    I'm fifteen now, first got into Queen when my brother's music exam last summer was to analyse BoRhap! He liked it so much he went out and bought the Greatest Hits Collection and the moment I heard Don't Stop me Now I...
