  1. IMPORTANT DISCOVERY REGARDING EARLY CONCERTS

    yes is the answer to both those queries!

  2. IMPORTANT DISCOVERY REGARDING EARLY CONCERTS

    But based on what people down here have told me the band were very clear about their change of name and change of image and had discussed the look of the new band and so on too. So I think Roger, who like Freddie was...

  3. IMPORTANT DISCOVERY REGARDING EARLY CONCERTS

    I think the crucial person here is Freddie. Once it was decided he'd be the new singer it sounds like they'd decided they needed a new name and went with one that Freddie was keen on. The point about the gig at the Ci...

  4. IMPORTANT DISCOVERY REGARDING EARLY CONCERTS

    Mike didnt play in London with Smile but played that weekend in Cornwall with them. He cant remember if he played one or both of the booked gigs. Tim may have played one but not stayed for the other. He (Tim) was defi...

  5. IMPORTANT DISCOVERY REGARDING EARLY CONCERTS

    I think its possible that Tim was persuaded to play those later gigs even though he had decided to leave the band...Mike Grose said to me that he and Roger had had a minor falling out that weekend in Truro and Tim had...

  6. IMPORTANT DISCOVERY REGARDING EARLY CONCERTS

    There are lots of people still in Cornwall who remember the Smile gigs and the first Queen gigs. This week I managed to find Mike Grose who was Queens first bassist. He said that after Tim left Smile he played bass in...

  9. IMPORTANT DISCOVERY REGARDING EARLY CONCERTS

    Youre right ....its an important as a historical document and its interesting to think what the implications are. I ve sent a copy to Jacky Gunn to see what she makes of it. I found it late on Saturday when the librar...

  10. IMPORTANT DISCOVERY REGARDING EARLY CONCERTS

    I have and its pretty good on most stuff but it doesnt mention these PJs gigs which are very close to the moment when Queen formed properly...

  11. IMPORTANT DISCOVERY REGARDING EARLY CONCERTS

    Exactly what I thought when I saw it... I think it more likely that Sour Milk Sea were going to play - but when they split up Smile took the gig instead.... But you may be interested to know that I'm meeting the ex-ma...

  12. IMPORTANT DISCOVERY REGARDING EARLY CONCERTS

    I've got quite a few interesting bits and pieces that i will be putting on the blog over the next few weeks. This picture, for instance, is of the walled garden at Tregye (as it looks now) where Queen played on the sa...

  13. IMPORTANT DISCOVERY REGARDING EARLY CONCERTS

    Hi y'all I'm a Queen fan who has the good fortune to live in the fair City of Truro, Cornwall...I ve been visiting some of the locations of the gigs that they played down here and meeting some of the musicians and pro...

  14. IMPORTANT DISCOVERY REGARDING EARLY CONCERTS

    Cant see how to edit posts so added link here www.queenincornwall.blogspot.com Would be grateful for feedback on the advert that also mentions Sour Milk Sea. Does this fit with your understanding of the early history...

  15. IMPORTANT DISCOVERY REGARDING EARLY CONCERTS

    I am researching Queens early concerts, many of which were in Cornwall, UK where I live. This is the blog that details some of the research. It includes details of interviews with members of the Reaction. I have found...
