Life on Two Legs - Norman Sheffield's Autobiography
I wonder if Sheffield held onto any Queen mementos from his time with them. He could have acetates and/or raw tapes from their studio time. But a lot of that stuff could've gotten lost or destroyed back when they sold...

Keep Yourself Alive (PiotreQ Blurred Remix)
I planned to just listen to this while reading the board but I couldn't take my eyes off the video. Really nice job! I'm still grinning from ear to ear.

Fight from the inside
Both titles have 5 syllables, and use pretty similar meters. The words themselves could easily be interchanged between songs, even though their meanings don't mesh. Someone should do a mashup.

Queen wins Favorite Pop Single - AMAs 1981
Thanks for posting this. For some award shows the winners know in advance that they are gonna win so they will send someone to accept it. I don't know if that's the case with the AMAs, though. Anyone know if anyone fr...

Opening Number - Queen Extravaganza (Somebody To Love) American Idol 2012
I really enjoyed it too. It impressed me enough that I'm now seriously considering driving 4 hours to see it this summer (and take my kids as well).

Very Longest Brian May solo
The Real Wizard wrote: I'd say the peak of Brian's solos was 1982 - definitely his most creative. If only there was more video from that US tour. Many reviews state that the sight of the lights chasing him around were...

CLTCL first aired in N. America in Montreal?
Found this quote in a recent article/blog about the Queen Extravaganza: 'Incidentally, Toots [legendary CHOM deejay Tootall] also broke Queen’s #1 worldwide hit Crazy Little Thing Called Love right here in Montreal on...

Happy Birthday Sir GH!
Happy Birthday, Sir! With a little luck I'll find the photos I took of Queen at the Capital Centre in 82 and send them to you today! (Hopefully my ticket stub is with them, too!) Happy Birthday!

Queen's First E.P. (record store day)
I found a local shop that had it. Bought it for $8.99. No. 1837 stamped in silver on the back. Not sure if I'm going to open it or not. Probably not, since it doesn't have any new music on it.

Singles boxset coming November 4th, 2008?
I imagine they'll do a delayed digital release 2 or 3 weeks after the physical release. That way us die hards will have to buy our "shiny packages" before we're able to cherry pick what we actually want or need. Eithe...

I've bought Q at different Borders, Barnes & Noble, and Books-A-Million bookstores around the US. I've also seen it at Virgin Megastore and Tower Records (do they still exist?). You might call other record stores as w...

Hey remember queen before internet??
Just a few random memories...I remember getting the lyrics to Radio Ga Ga in the Fan Club Magazine before the single was released. I used to re-read them silently in calculus instead of listening to the teacher. Wish...

Time - the musical soundtrack album
My copy of the album has the hologram of Sir Laurence Olivier on the cover. The spine reads "DAVE CLARK'S TIME THE ALBUM". I bought it as an import here in the US when it was first released. Paid around $20.00, I'd im...
