Uh oh, someone dial 9-1-1. We've got another passenger for the Wah-Wah-Wah-mbulance.
No he didn't. He is still alive and well. In fact on this very website there were several pictures posted of one of his son's wedding WHICH HE ATTENDED earlier this year.
I too don't see people I worked with over 10 years ago anymore... so what?
Deaky is simply far too busy posting anonymously on Queenzone.com to make time to see Brian. All those trolls who people think are Jake are actually Deaky. He has to get his kicks somehow after giving up rock n' roll...
Saying they desecrated Freddie's legacy is an utter load of rubbish. By all means, they're keeping his memory alive. Brian said himself he hadn't planned on continuing Queen, but he couldn't escape her. I mean, give them a break, as much as they let people know no-one's goin to replace Freddie, and as much as they point out that The Cosmos Rocks was dedicated TO FREDDIE they can't escape the bite of idiotic fans. Look at one Queen video one youtube and you're BOUND to run into the "RIP FREDDIE 4EVR PAWL ROGGERS SUX END CANT REPLCE U!1 BRINE AND ROGR SHULD B ASHMED" comments. They haven't done anything wrong but celebrate Fred's life.
Mr. Deacon has made his decision to leave the band behind because he probably predicted that it would hit the fan like this- he knew there was no-one like Fredie, and that people werne't going to accept Queen without Fred. I respect that he gave the band up, and hid away at his little farm where-ever it may be, but I have the equal amount of respect for the boys for wiping off their tears and never letting the memory of Merc fade into obscurity... or worse, have more songs remixed by Hollywood records.
And before things get out of hand, yes, Wiley, I realized your post was entirely sarcastic. Yet there are people who think that way.
I'm sure Deacy is more than happy enjoying his life to the full and wallowing in the royalties that still continue to stock his bank accounts. Although I'd love to see the 3 of them record together again I'm just happy for all the music that they've made in the past for us to enjoy. Best of luck to Deacy and I'm sure he's having a blast!
