My wish list at [b]this [/b]moment:

-A CD with all the B-sides

-Champions of the World (DVD)

-Magic Years (DVD)

-Live at the Rainbow 1974 (DVD)

-GVH 3

[/QUOTE]
So you want 2 documentaries that are almost identical? and outdated?

I'm hoping for the following;

1 : a QPR dvd from the 08 tour. Ukraine with a bonus disc from south america

2: GVH III on dvd

I think it's unlikely that we will get more than two releases

1.Cosmos Rocks Tour double CD/DVD
2.Singles Box Set Vol.2
3.maybe, just maybe an archive concert- Budapest 86' e.g.

i agree with hutchence. singles colloection vol 2 and QPR cd/dvd are sure things. and i remember quite a while ago brian said that next Q dvd will be budapest '86

Shouldn't the boxsets be released in 2009 ?

[/QUOTE]
They were originally scheduled somewhere in the '90s, weren't they? I suppose they might be out by 2109, so I'll just have to make sure I get healthy, long-living grandchildren.

[b]What I'd like to see:[/b]

An official release of a 1970s concert such as Hyde Park, Earl's Court, Houston or Hammersmith. This would be a 2-disc set, featuring the dvd and a cd version of the concert, plus an extensive booklet featuring new pics, memorabilia, and notes from remaining band members.

[b]What I think we'll see:[/b]

Budapest on DVD, with 'exclusive' content such as the mimed Montreux set.

A QPR concert.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

It depends what they think they can get away with. Usually Queen productions go for the "least possible work for biggest possible profit" formula, but having milked that cow almost dry, we may see something different in 2009,

Wasn't the Montreux concert already on GVH2?

I have no idea, but it certainly sounds like the type of crap Queen would put as a bonus.

I don't recall Brian ever saying Budapest was the next DVD, he talked about the concert itself true but nothing more than that.

But it fits Queen's criteria, as others have said. Most Queen fans already have it in acceptable quality, and it's from the same time period as an earlier released concert (Wembley).

If they release Budapest on DVD next, it will prove, beyond a shadow of a doubt, just how lazy, clueless and greedy they truly are.

mmmm, yeah ... I remember Brian saying something about Budapest on DVD not too long ago on his site.

We must accept the fact: it has everything Brian actually requires in terms of picture and sound quality for a live release.

We all want 70´s shows ... but after the re-re-re-re-re-re-release of Montreal; after the brilliant singles boxset ... after everything QPL knows we really want .... we´ll have Budapest ´86 as the gem QPL will present to us, the loyal fans.

I wish I´m wrong and we´ll have something interesting ..... no, I won´t dare talking about the studio/live anthologies, but .... why not the complete BBC sessions? look, in certain aspects it would respect the "let´s re-re-re-re-re-re-release our stuff" rule being followed by QPL in recent years, as we´d have the third release of sessions 1 and 3 after "Queen At The Beeb" and "Queen At The BBC".

This is what I could find regarding Brian's comment about Budapest on DVD

"I was thinking Wembley but I'm sure it was there at Budapest also .... we will soon be getting around to making more Queen Live DVD's, and Budapest is a great prospect . ... the camera work - by a bunch of Hungary's best cameramen, was absolutely superb. And we're not talking video here ... but 35mm film ...the best !!"

So while he seems "up" on the idea, he in no way says it's definitely "the next DVD that will be released."

I am hoping that 2009 brings us:

1) A Queen and Paul Rodgers tour in North America

2) News that Queen and Paul Rodgers are heading back into the studio to do more NEW songs....Now that Brian has completed his doctorate, he can spend more time crafting great guitar licks and solos

3) Releases of a Queen and Paul Rodgers DVD or 2 (Ukraine  / South America)

4) News that a Box Set of rarities will come out in 2010

5) An Official DVD release of one 70s concert and one 80s concert (I'll be happy with any)

6) Queen songs included in ROCKBAND i.e. TYMD, BoRap, IWIA, C-lebrity (?)

7) I like the idea of another BBC sessions release...to complete the work from that era...maybe in #4 the rarities if not a standalone

8) Queen Rocks II (doubt this would happen though)

9) I really don't care about the single box sets....why should I? I have the material already.....why pay more just for packaging?!?  but I suppose volume 2 will come out....
would rather have re-releases of each album featuring songs and alternative versions that didn't make the cut....and videos/concerts where possible

10) and of course good health and wellness for Queen, Paul Rodgers,and all of us....
