About Sun City, this is a quote from Brian:
http://en.allexperts.com/q/Queen-566/Queen-Sun-City.htm?zIr=5
You played Sun City in South Africa a few years ago.
B) Yes we did. We stirred up a whole hornets nest of controversy.
I) What's the current thinking from the Queen camp about return visits or the attitude to South Africa and apartheid?
B) OK, the current thing is that we said we won't go back until this regime is gone. That's in response to what everyone else has said. We went there, and we're not ashamed of the fact that we went there. It would be very easy to say "OK, we made a mistake. Sorry" and all that stuff, but that's not really the truth.
The truth is we thought very carefully about going and we considered that it was right because for the first time we were going to be able to play to non-segregated audiences, which we did, and it's absolutely true, whether people believe it or not.
I was there, I saw it with my own eyes, I know what happened. We feel that by going there and by stating very clearly our point of view, which was that we were utterly opposed to apartheid, that we did a lot more to accelerate the end of that way of thinking in South Africa than many people have done by staying away.
I know it's a very unpopular thing to say, probably, but it's the way we feel, and that's the truth. We've been there, we've seen it, we've talked to people of all races there and we feel that, well know for a fact that a lot of people who were there feel that it was right for us to go. It's kind of special for us, because we've been selling records in South Africa for a long time, but not just to the white part of South Africa. We've been selling records to the black community, particularly "Another One Bites The Dust" and "I Want To Break Free", which became like an anthem for the human rights people down there. So we feel very close to the people who are fighting for their rights there.
By going there we feel like we helped them, and I know a lot of them there feel the same way. I can go on about t for a long time because it's something I feel very strongly about.
Nevertheless, we've now had so much pressure from people, the UN committee, Little Steven and all his friends, that it's better to stay away that we've said "OK, we'll go along with you, we'll do it your way", and we've said we won't go back.
I just pray that it's the right way. I think in my heart I'm not convinced that it's gonna do, that it's gonna be the best way to achieve the end which we all want to achieve. All I can say is that our aims are all the same, we just have slightly different ways of going about it.
I) I think without going there, though, people very much think it's all a black and white situation. It's not, there's 16 shades of grey, and people don't realise that until they get there.
B) That's right. That's right. That's so true, yeah. I would challenge so many of the people who come up with this very glib thing "OK we'll boycott the bastards. We're right, they're wrong." I would challenge them to go there and find out the real situation and then come back and say the same thing.
Of course apartheid is wrong. Of course the present situation produces a lot of misery, but how do you go about bringing about the change? I'm not convinced that this isolation policy is right and I'm not convinced a cultural boycott has ever achieved a change of internal attitude in a country. I don't think there's any examples in history where this worked.
I think all you do is tend to make people more bitter and more entrenched in their own opinions. Anyway, that's what I think.

Hey Roger Taylor:
The guys in Lynyrd Skynyrd went through the South in the late
sixties and early seventies as rock-n-rollers with long hair! Do you
think the sight of four effeminate limeys would scare them after facing
all the good-old-boy roadside bars and backwoods joints they played
while woodshedding? Ever heard Charlie Daniels' "Uneasy Rider"?
If you are stupidly going to refer to the members of Skynyrd as
"rednecks" because they were from the South (which, by the way Rog, is
where rock 'n' roll was born), then I am going to refer to you and your
fellow bandmates as "swishy Brits." And it's off the topic, but why has
your country continued to make such pussified rock 'n' roll for the
past quarter-century or so? Is the swishiness in your blood or what?
And yes, while Skynyrd had three guitarists, they also didn't have
to spend eight months in the studio
overdubbing/multitracking/whatevering to come up with "Workin' For MCA"
or "Saturday Night Special" - rockers which simply and straightly kick
the ass of anything you and your mates ever came up with. "Free Bird"
goes on for months? You're one to talk - how about "Bohemian Rhapsody"
and that "We Will Rock You/We Are The Champions" monstrosity? Fuck, at
least Skynyrd wasn't channeling a Nuremberg rally. I'll put the
original Skynyrd's output of Pronounced through Street Survivors up against anything your cute little band came up with any time.
"Bollocks" to respect for the dead? I agree. When Freddie Mercury
croaked, I did a shot and cracked a beer and broke down and cried!
Queen could never again get together to create more gems like "Bicycle
Race"! Oh no! The tragedy! No more pretentious, overblown, aristocratic
British rock! No more brilliance ala "Body Language"! Boo-hoo! What a
loss!
Finally, Roger, let's get something straight. Lynyrd Skynyrd was
one of the finest, toughest, rock 'n' roll bands ever. Queen was an
overblown, crappy pomposity of an outfit that performed show tunes
covered up with a buncha overdubbed guitars and vocals. And as I type
this, I sincerely hope that wherever they are ... Ronnie Van Zant is
busting a pool cue over Freddie Mercury's skull.
(Note: A letter-writer in the June issue of MOJO points out that
the concerts occurred in 1974 and sent a photo of a ticket stub to
prove it. Makes sense as Skynyrd was still in the bars in '71 and
Queen's first album didn't come out until '73 - sloppy fact-checking by
MOJO. The letter-writer also says at the show he attended that Skynyrd
blew people away and half the crowd left before Queen came on. He and
his pals got bored with Queen after a few numbers and also left.)
Knute, you are a fucking cock.
You stupid little ignoramus. Too right those dumb yanks lynyrd skidmark never spent months in the studio working on their songs - they wouldn't know how to construct a decent song anyway.
To state that queen was an ' overblown, crappy pomposity' yet praise up lynyrd skidmark really shows your lack of any form of intelligence or knowledge. You are an ignoramus.
And as for that twat ronnie van shat busting a pool cue over freddie's skull - how utterly juvenile, you little boy. Grow up you foolish little retard.
Cock.

Mr farenheit. Your post about freddie's death was absolutely pathetic, you little homophobe.
Secondly your post concerning the rest of the world truly reveals your ignorance. Yeh, cause the usa is such a great country, ha ha. fucking laughable. Any country that can elect a retard like bush - well that speaks volumes. ( Btw, I'm not saying all americans are dumb - obviously not everyone wanted Bush as president.) A country that banned the 'break free' video because four men dressed up in drag - how behind the times can you get?!!! Trouble with some americans though is that they believe they are more superior than the rest of the world. Still ,they are still in their infancy compared to the rest of us, bless 'em. And just one look at your country's official music charts on any given week says it all - dominated by rap shit and rnb bollocks, basically music that will be forgotten overnight. Apart from Elvis, madonna and michael 'i love boys and chimps' jackson, your country really hasn't produced many lasting world-wide -succesful acts, has it? Whereas the uk (tiny as we are - and size does matter to you americans, just checks those waist-sizes!) has produced the most succesful bands and singers of all time. fact. The stones, the beatles, Queen, led zeppelin, the who, david bowie, elton john, cliff richard......... Regardless if your like or dislike those mentioned, the fact is they are all hugely succesful the world over.
Go and fuck an apple pie.
