  1. Where is everybody based here?

    Thanks GratefulFan, yes we did. I proposed to her outside Garden Lodge and in our wedding ceremony she walked down the aisle to Bijou, then in the middle we had Teo Torriatte playing and then as we left the church I w...

  2. Where is everybody based here?

    I was from Cwmbran, Wales but in 2006 I met a woman on here who was from Buffalo, NY and we got married on May 29 and so now I live with her in the US.

  3. Queen and Hollywood Records

    I think to say that in 1991 when Hollywood Records signed up Queen it is a little bit naive to think that they did not know that Freddie was going to die soon. Far from shafting them, I would say that I'm sure when he...

  4. Freddie's parents

    Thank you Victor, that is useful and all I wanted to know. I didn't ask where his grave is, I didn't ask what address his mother and sister live. I just wondered around what year his dad died and if his mother is stil...

  5. Freddie's parents

    All I wanted to know was when Freddie's dad died. That's why I hardly ever post a question anymore and very rarely even bother replying on a discussion board. The people on here are unbelievable and not in a good way....

  6. Freddie's parents

    Does anyone have any info on Freddie's parents. I take it his dad has now died? Can anyone say when?

  7. OH FREDDIE YOU SHOULDN¨T HAVE - 10 Queen songs that don´t rock my world.

    I really don't think that Freddie sang with an American accent. Not compared with Mick Jagger, Elton John, George Michael and the like. Maybe on a few songs but when he was just singing naturally I can't hear an Ameri...

  8. Lady Gaga

    She did take her name from Radio GaGa but not because of her vocal style being like Freddie. Apparantley she was always being told she has tantrums like Freddie Mercury so then she called herself after a Queen song.

  9. June trip to Buffalo and Toronto

    What is this about? Someone please inform me.

  10. Queen's Top 10 biggest mistakes!

    Not putting the song Sheer Heart Attack on the album Sheer heart attack was really weird too? Yes maybe but it can hardly be in the top 10 mistakes by a band like Queen that started over 35 years ago. I can't for the...

  11. Brian May clears up that Paul Rodgers thing

    Free were almost as big as Zeppelin only that they weren't anywhere as big. Free's 1970 album - Highway got to #41 in the UK album charts and #190 in America so not really. Didn't Zeppelin get to #1 both sides of the...

  12. Brian May clears up that Paul Rodgers thing

    To Microwave - Yeah I compared the bands. How else can you compare the two as individuals. Freddie never ever toured by himself as a solo artist. An album Paul Rodgers released by himself in 1983 called Cut Loose got...

  13. Which version of Hammer To Fall do you prefer?

    I like the version on the Highlander Soundtrack. I don't know what version it is but it is not quite the same as the single or album version.

  14. Brian May clears up that Paul Rodgers thing

    Well I agree with Microwave about Lionel Richie. I don't have any music by him but he is very radio friendly and I can't see any harm in the guy and I haven't read up on the facts myself but I will take Microwave's wo...

  15. Works tour

    I also have the Japan 1985 show on dvd and it is not one of the best. Roger's drum sound is annoying and pretty weak but I have a cd of Queen in Milan 1984 on the first part of that tour and it sounds pretty good to m...

  16. QPR cardiff gig i've got my tickets!!!!

    I did it the old fashioned way! Today I got a bus to Cardiff station, walked to the Cardiff International Arena Box Office and got 2 tickets no problem. That was just after 10am. Got the bus home at 10:50. I paid £49....

  17. Roger Taylor solo albums

    Anyway thanks all of you and thanks Pieter. I always respect your comments.

  18. What would you have for April Fools' day?

    I went for a job interview today but I hadn't read the letter properly. In fact it was for WEDNESDAY 2ND so I was a day early. I played an April Fools on myself!!

  19. Roger Taylor solo albums

    Thank you all for your input. I wasn't meaning the albums he did with The Cross anyway. I haven't heard any Cross stuff either but nor would I want to. The person that said 80's crap I can believe that. That was just...

  20. Roger Taylor solo albums

    Hi I would just appreciate any feedback from people here who can rate either good, bad or average, Roger Taylor's solo albums especially Fun In Space and Strange Frontier but the later ones also. Are any good or bad?...
