Ensueno Mistake on the Freddie Boxed Set. BUT...........

Dear All
I would say Greg just wants to make clear that his part of the job was something hard. That's all.
We have to understand that every step, every person involved in what we finally is released IS important.
We needed Freddie first, we needed the musicians, we needed the producers and sound-mixers, we needed the phographers and the guy in charge of the desing of the product, we needed the guys in charge of looking for the tapes, we needed Greg, his comments and notes for this, and the people who had some more information about the recordings.
You can be with Greg or not about many things, but in this case, something well done is always good, and FM box set is even better.

I'm sure the Victory track and the Time musical recording will be out there some day. Will it take 10 years, maybe 30? We dont know. I hope Greg tells us something if he can.

Actually, I was the one who told Freddie which songs to release and which I could later release as the lost Freddie gold.

PRODUCTION? You don't know the meaning of the word. When Queen asks, I PRODUCE... AND SOMETIMES IN ALL CAPS, YES.

Let me take a minute to remind everyone how great I am. If not for me, you wouldn't have the Queen Live book, much of which I researched on Queenzone, BUT NEVER MIND THAT. I put it together and numbered the pages, even included an index. When have any of you ever included an index? THAT'S RIGHT, NEVER.

Side note: Lester's book is so backwards, he put the index in the back!! What a crock.

But back to me. It's because of me, you'll get to see every Queen sew on patch ever made in full stunning glory. Who else is going to give you that? Brian? NO Roger? NO Freddie? Umm NO John? NO, your ol' pal Greg? WHY OF COURSE.

By the way, if anyone knows of a good place to get a karate outfit, could you please email me? Of course, I would need a black belt.

Dear Greg,

Just one question (and, contrary to my usual standards, I mean nothing by it, and it is totally unrelated to the flaming above):

When you post on QZ, are you officially representing Queen Productions (taking into consideration your nickname), or are you posting unofficially, non-related to your job?

Greg, no answer to my question on the previous page?

Bummer.

Oh well, opening topics about karate in the wrong section is indeed a way to get attention, I guess.

Oh, crickey, I forgot the magical words: the FM box is unfuckingbelievable great!

My guess is that he posts unofficially.

It's no different than my plumber getting a Queenzone account, I guess, and telling me I'm a stupid cunt for using so much toilet paper and not really appreciating his work.

I wonder if your plumber is going to post on the internet almost a decade after he fixed your toilet that he did such a good job.

I wonder if that plumber has access to the Queen vault but all he wants to do is talk shite.

Seeing that no Queen-related archival release has been put out since 2004, chances are your plumber actually IS Breg Grooks.

Truly unbelievable...

Greg, don't let yourself so intimidated by a bunch of people on the internet. Does Queen know you are expressing yourself like this to people that keep the legend of Queen alive? That are faithful? I think it is a shame, if you were my employee I'd fire you immedeately.

I heard Paul Rodgers wants nothing to do with him.

And I wish I had a Queen one!!!!

Yes the FM box is great, but why the need for all the self congratulating? Yes, you ALL spent ages doing the best job you could - nothing more and nothing less than you were paid to do I imagine!

In my work I do my job to the best I can do, but if when it is checked my boss finds a mistake it is pointed out. I can't turn around and say "ah, but I got this/that bit right". I have to say "yes I did get that wrong and I shouldn't have".

I need to work on my written communication, as I was trying to be far more reasonable than I clearly came across.

Well, Mylord, I think you sounded reasonable for everybody here except the Queen Archivist who needed to exercise his CAPS again :-)
