Roger solo. That would be fantastic!
a new tour.fantastic,just when i thought i would never see queen live again..
Hopefully, it will be a US tour this time.
Unfortunately it seems we may not have Paul.I hope this is not true.Paul is the best singer around these days.To lose him would be bad news.
However,i wouldnt mind seeing John back.Would love that actually.Considering it might be their last tour,it would be fitting though.

Oh cant see Brian doing it again either, maybe an odd show but he seemed to have suffered physically from this tour and hey hey has given us 40 years of his heart and soul, Roger on the other hand the tour has seemed to given him the zest to play again, he's playing better and tighter than I can remember and I've been around following them Live since Southend in 1973 (Mott the Hopple support band)
Honestly, the prospect of more solo Roger stuff (even a tour that I won't be able to see) is some of the best Queen news I've heard in a while! Over the past few years, with any new venture the band has taken, he's been the best part (for me).
People really should stop referring to Brian and Roger as "Queen". No, there will not be a Queen tour in 2010, as the last Queen tour was in 1986 and it's not possible that there could ever be a new tour. Brian and Roger together is not Queen any more than a one-off Paul McCartney & Ringo Starr performance is a Beatles reunion.
I would have liked to see more solo albums from both Roger and Brian, but I wonder why he's now suddenly eager to write solo material as it's been more than 10 years since his last solo album. Both the Cosmos Rocks and the very long time since the last solo albums by R & B prove that Roger and Brian have absolutely NOTHING left in themselves musically, so people shouldn't expect much from any new material by these two guys. Queen's story, and at the same time these guys's careers, ended with Made in Heaven in 1995 - someone should update the info to Bri and Rog, it seems that they aren't aware of it.

Did this news touch a tender spot, aion?
Roger solo. Great news!
Roger solo. Great news!
I'd like new solo Roger AND Brian albums, with John contributing lol.
A new Roger solo album would be awesome. But want if he just releases a "best of" and he and Brian as "Queen" record a new album and tour with it as Queen?

2005 called. It wants its then-current topic back. :)
I really hope they're not losing Paul, that would be really sad, indeed :(
Yeah, losing Paul would deprive us of an album that would rank 1 or 2 on both the "Worst Ever Lyric Writing" and "Why did they do this again?" lists.
Good news. Roger seems like the only one of the three capable of writing more than one decent song. Without Roger, tCR would have been absolutely dreadful, instead of just mediocre.
