Queen tour in 2010

In the latest Queen Fan Club magazine (see http://www.queenworld.com/ to join) Roger indicated that he and Brian are intending to tour in 2010. No word on the format or anything just yet.

But, good news!

In a 1989 Fan Club magazine, Brian and Roger said they were waiting for Freddie to get off his ass and tour.  No further details have come forth on that either.

I think it's safe to say that from 1989-present, Brian and Roger are planning on touring next year.  No further details have come forth yet.

I wonder what the format will be. Paul has effectively said he won't be touring with them again, so will be interesting.

Cue silly rumours about George Michael and Robbie Williams. Maybe now we can throw Katy Perry into the mix too.

I don't think paul ever said he will never tour with them again, you people love to make shit up!....they said that they needed a break from each other. Who cares anyway?...they would be better off singing the next album themselves and bringing a guest vocalist to sing on tour....I don't like all the Queen + crap anyway.

But the problem is / was that Brian and Roger relied too heavily on the Queen catalogue to bolster their shows.  Admittedly, it would be incredibly tough for them to go out and COMPLETELY ignore Queen material, but they have both (Roger in particular) have the material and musical background to be able to delve more deeply into their own solo catalogues to give the audience a bit of something different.

Neither Brian or Roger are strong enough front men to be able to maintain contact for two hours - their solo shows were necessarily short because of this and going out together would give 90 minute shows featuring the same old Queen classics for upwards of £50-£60 per ticket - absolutely no worth.

Queen to tour 2010??!! OMG! I hope with Paul Rodgers!

I seem to recall Brian's Another World tour gigs lasting around 2 hours each. Not 'short' by any means. Roger's shows were generally a lot shorter - the Electric Fire gigs running at around 85-90 minutes I believe.

They should just take Bowie out of whatever hospital hes in right now and they can make more than one awesome song to tour with.

Hopefully Queen+Paul Rodgers in 2010 !!!!!

[b]Ya know I really wish all you guys would get their backs about all this.  They are the Gods of music...I dont care what ANYBODY says.     They have earned EVERY God damned right to do WHATEVER they want.  Freddie even admitted that his favorite singer (aside from Aretha Franklin) was none other than Paul Rodgers.  And coming from an die hard Queen fan, I know obviously nobody will EVER replace Freddie and Paul knows that. That was never what Paul wanted to doFreddie would have wanted it that way.  And theres nobody better ![/b]

Queen + David Bowie feat. David Gilmour. Think about that Comfortably Numb, yes. With reference to Zebonka12, I set my mastrubation to frantic.

Oh, by the way. Why isn´t Larry Mullen JR in the U2 ad above? Does he not produce as much cool as Bono, Edge or Clayton?

Actually, I think you're right.  Now they would just have to find out which city that
real fan lives in so they sell the one ticket, cause no one else would show up.
