As if some random fan like you can define what someone elses band was.
Maybe it is, maybe it isn't.
I think what you mean is that it's not what YOU feel Queen was, and everyone has their own idea of what that was. So here's a thought, for you and everyone else :
Don't impress your stupid ideals on other people. We *all* have our own feeling on whether or not it's really "Queen". Find another thread if you don't approve.

I'm sure people who really liked "Queen II" and "A Night at the Opera" said the same thing when "Hot Space" came out.
It is what it is. Life's too short, especially for those two 60s-ish guys that some of us love and some of us love to hate. They're not going to be able to tour and record and whatever for too many more years. Perhaps you'd prefer they did nothing at all compared to what they're doing now, and if that's how you feel, more power to you. But as far as I'm concerned, they can call their band "Freddie Mercury" for all I care. What its called doesn't change who's in the band or what kind of product they turn out, and if they need to release this new album, with the different singer, and the bad title and the shitty font and the ticket problems, to tour somewhere I can see them play 3 or 4 times, then that's fine with me. I'd prefer all things be perfect, but they're not going to be, so I'm rolling with the punches.

The weird thing is that I agree with both Another Roger and Serry ...

I cant wait for the album. I am so glad that they are making it, and that Queen are touring again. I hope that some others also feel like this[/QUOTE]
I read very briefly what you said. I noticed very clearly your mistake: Queen are over, no Queen will be touring again. Full stop.
Then, all the others are just plain words, keep up the flow if you want..
QUEEN ARE DAMNED OVER. don't confuse, this is another story, love it or hate it.

I read the TC's post with interest and yes, you struck a nostalgic bone in my body where ANYTHING Queen was a gift from the gods...
But this is a discussion board, and IS the right place to discuss feelings and thoughts, negative or otherwise with other Queen fans.
Unfortunately, for me... these are dark days for Queen, so that's what I'm going to discuss.
I guess it's good to have balance, but honestly as long as people are talking about Queen, or Queen related topics (not personal attacks) I'm cool with how things are here.

Whining happens in every fandom. Meh.

This set off my Fuckwit Alarm.
Now, I'm sure you're a bright enough person, maybe you can walk me through this.
"Dark days for Queen"?
I really don't see how. Two of the guys from the band are touring again & they've hooked up with a singer who doesn't suck total balls.
If you're implying that it's not really Queen (I kind of agree with you) then I have news for you. It's been 'dark days' for Queen since 1991 and nothing's going to change that.
Freddie's dead, dead, dead. He died after weeing himself. Get it into your head, it was 16 years ago.
Lighten the fuck up. At least they're not rotting away collecting royalty checques for the rest of their days.
How do you people get up in the morning!?
