  1. Fave album cover?

    News of the World. I bought it in '77 and played it to death and always loved the cover. So much so that I sent my Astounding Science Fiction magazine to Kelly Freas to autograph it. RIP Kelly.

  2. The last time?

    I got from a reliable source that after Freddie passed away, John hid away in his studio for days. He was absolutely devastated.

  5. "the best bootleg"

    I personally don't consider Earls Court, Hammersmith 75 or 79 or any of those professionally recorded shows bootlegs. The best ones I've been listening to lately are Montreal, Toronto and Chicago from December of 78....

    Tour posters, programs, bootlegs, autographs from all four members, personal photos of the band, all my original lp's, cd's dvd's, rare footage, magazines from the past 27 years, seeing them live twice, former fan clu...

  7. are all male queen fans gay?

    When I was in school and the kids found out I was a Queen fan, they would always call the band a "fag band" or a bunch of queers. BUT they would sing songs like "Champions" or "Bo Rhap" just the same. I'm not gay but...

  9. Freddie's oral sex tent

    The "tent" at the back of the stage was a curtained off area just behind John's amps and was called the "dollhouse." It was set up with towels, mirrors and different clothes for costume changes. Who knows, maybe some...

  10. Xmas '75, is it really that good ?

    I agree with some of the comments made here.I've also read that Brian and Freddie were ill at the time. But it was also at the end of the tour and Freddies' voice always took a beating at the tail end of any tour. Wat...

  11. about roger taylors drum kits whats your fav

    The Ludwig kit from the Day at the Races and News of the World tours. It was like an arsenal of drums. The recording of his kit on those albums is what makes me listen to them over and over. Big and open sounding. A g...

  12. Your First Queen Album...

    News of the World for me. I never really knew much about the band except that my cousin was on tour with them as their lighting engineer. But when I heard "Rock You" on the radio and found out what band it was, I went...

  13. What's Your Favourit Queen Stage?

    My cousin Joe was the lighting designer for Queen from January of 77 to May of 79. He designed the crown and the pizza oven rigs for those tours. So for me I'd have to say those two rigs and stages were my favorites....
