Yes, the name is important. And first of all Queen is: Mercury, May, Taylor and Dicon (the great respect to him). If there is no one of them - there is no band as a whole. But Mercury was the obvious leader and genius person. His charisma and power has enveloped the masses. And he exactly remains in memory of people as unusual and picturesque person. Like Mozart, for instance.I hope you understand me. I still love him and I don't want Rodgers in Queen.

Who is Dicon? Was he the bass player in Freddie's band? :P

Haaa, Sorry, Sorry, Deacon. I'm always in a hurry.
Does anyone knows when the album is coming?

The point I'm trying to make is this. Who gives a @#$! what name they use for an album? Is this a reason to boycott?
To be offended or hurt, someone must have done something to you. How can using the name "Queen" seriously affect anybody but maybe John? Maybe Tim Staffel or some other one time associate of the band.
But the stance "I'm not buying this album because they used the name Queen" is silly. It sounds like a grudge to me. If the music sucks, OK fine. But to shut the door and join a protest parade for a band's name is plain looney.

Roger Taylor owned a Ford Mustang which was one of Lee Iacocca's first projects. For all we know, Freddie might have actually driven a "K-Car". I thought you were a "know all" when it comes to all things Queen, Professor.
I challenge you to provide the Queenzone community with proof of your intellegence. So far, you have failed to meet that stipulation, and are probably frantically looking for a dictionary so you can interpret my post.
So go ahead, Einstein. Show us what you've got. I would try to steer clear of the music path, because that's not anything you show much skill in. Why are you here? What purpose do you serve in society? Even a Park Maintenance man has purpose. Yours is clearly eluding all of us.

dont play superior, you are an idiot. Im just saying they shouldnt use the queen name now that freddie is dead and john isnt in the band, simple.
"queen" without freddie is a cover band, simple as that.

We'll agree to disagree then Microwave, as I understand, and agree with your point as I've stated, but obviously the name is an issue to some people. No one's right or wrong, but I totally see both sides. In my e-mail to Brian, I was hoping to see if he'd see those sides also as he appears to paint everyone opposed to them using the name as people who want Roger and him to wither away and die and never play another note of music, which is nonsense.
Personally speaking since I'm not sure if the comments were directed at me, I wouldn't boycott anything over a name, I'm certainly not offended or hurt, and hold no grudge over anything.
To symmetrically end on a football note, I'll paraphrase the great Dennis Green. "Queen are who we thought they are!!! If you want to crown Queen + Paul Rodgers, crown their asses."

In YOUR opinion. Plenty of bands have gone on after their main man died or left the band.
Bands can do whatever they want to do, as long as they own the rights to the band's name. It is only opinions of people that "determine" (for lack of a better word) whether or not it was a good choice.

Yes, I make up for my lack of Queen knowledge by bringing you all little tidbits like this. Plus I got to put Lee Iacocca and Freddie in the same league.
THEY can't do that.
