  1. Thoughts on Thor Arnold and Lee Nolan's eleven year friendship with Freddie

    Oh everyone, I've been a bit busy these last few days, but thanks so much for all your kind comments about my work. I won't say any more, except Rainbow61 asked if there is a particular type of music people respond to...

  2. Garden Lodge Today

    haha, I looked up the Mews out of curiosity. There's a minimum 7 night stay and the price is £3,728.90 for 7 nights if you want to pay immediately or £5,120.70 if you want the possibility to cancel! hahaha!!!! Still g...

  3. New documentary

    Just got this email from the fan club. Personally I felt like crying. I find it painful to watch Queen+ (nothing against AL - he’s a great singer & performer: it is the absence of Freddie not the presence of Adam I ca...

  4. Bryan Singer

    I agree Sheldon. But I do think it's wrong of Bohemian Rhapsody to erase him as though he didn't have involvement in the film. When I say wrong, what it does is just prove that people will do anything in order to win...

  5. Thoughts on Thor Arnold and Lee Nolan's eleven year friendship with Freddie

    Congratulations to all involved for the Oscars. I've not gotten to see anything from it myself yet, but I'll watch if it is on UK TV tonight. (Anyone know where/when it's on?) Who could have anticipated such success a...

  7. A bit of fun...

    Muse have done it too when made to mime. It’s pretty entertaining! Even keeping up the pretence of “the drummer, Matt”! https://youtu.be/U7LT3FtPtbc All bands should do it when forced to mime, I think!!

  8. Queen Live Concerts VHS tapes for sale (bids) on eBay

  10. A bit of fun...

    mooghead wrote: I thought that but Roger on the mic is almost a given.. too predictable Haha, alright then... I feel like John would be uncomfortable on the mic, but I’d be intrigued to see what Bri would do in the fr...

  11. A bit of fun...

    Well there’s already that documentary footage where Freddie plays drums & Roger is on the Red Special! So I’d have to stick with Fred on drums & Rog on guitar. I’d LOVE John on vocals, but Bri on bass isn’t quite as i...

  12. Did you ever suspect Freddie wasn't white?

    Why dig up an old thread like this? As to the question, I don't think kids think about race and ethnicity to the same degree - they just see a person and that's that (unless adults around have made them think about su...

  13. Mary Austin and the rest of Queen

    The only thing you can imagine is if maybe some of Queen would have liked to have made Garden Lodge some kind of museum for Freddie. In terms of considering Queen as a business, it would certainly have made a lot of m...

  14. Thoughts on Thor Arnold and Lee Nolan's eleven year friendship with Freddie

    Welcome doughnut and Simona. About interviews, I think Freddie was understandably wary of any press or interviewers and my personal impression is that he was easily bored. And it must be really boring to answer the sa...

  15. Bad day?

  16. Who was the most consistant member of the band in studio

    bucsateflon wrote: all suppositions, nothing is certain True, but still interesting to wonder about I think. It is something that surely varied album to album too which again we can’t know any truth of the details but...

  17. Mary Austin ( Post Movie)

    No, she hasn't given any interviews or commented on the film and she wasn't involved at all in the making of it.

  18. Do they believe in God?

  19. Taking bets aka what will Q+AL perform at Oscars?

    Surely it’ll just be We Will Rock You? (I’d suggest a medley with We Are the Champions but that might be a step too presumptive at The Oscars!??!)

  20. The Night Comes Down
