The only reason I come on this discussion board is to find out about:
1) Queen dvd releases.
2) What Brian is up to musically.
3) What Roger is up to musicially.
4) If there's any word on a rarities/demos box set.[b]

[/QUOTE]
That's interesting, because all you've done here so far is argue with people and shove Kiss down their throats.
For someone whose second-favourite band is Queen, you sure don't have too much positive to say about them. If you want to refer to Queen as "average" musicians, then Kiss are nothing more than bar musicians.
Does it bring you some kind of inner joy to spend your evenings trying to start fights with people over the computer?

To me KISS are better than The Beatles.

This statement alone has rendered you unable to discuss music with 99.999% of the civilized world. Honestly, why do you even bother?
No band will ever be bigger or better than The Beatles. They connected with billions of people around the world. Their music is perfect and timeless. If it wasn't, they wouldn't have been the best-selling artists of the last decade (30+ years after their demise), even without the remasters.
[QUOTE]Queen used pyro too, that is, after KISS already was using it.[/QUOTE]
But it was never the centrepiece to Queen's show. It merely augmented what was already happening on stage. What would Kiss' show be without the make-up, pyro, and gimmicks? It'd be a bunch of average musicians playing average songs for average people.
[QUOTE]Brian May: "I like KISS a lot. Queen were often compared to KISS at the time. We were sort of counterparts. They were the American version and we were the English version. I think we went into it with slightly different ideas. KISS came more from a presentation view to begin with and moved more toward the musical. I think we probably started in the musical and worked more toward the presentation. I have a great regard for KISS 'cause it's all-out. They just had their vision, they had their dream, and they damn well went for it."[/QUOTE]
It's called being a gentleman and a team player. Take some notes.
[/QUOTE]
I don't give a rat's ass about The Beatles. Neither do a lot of people. Who cares if they're the biggest band in the world?
I don't. I never gave them any of my money. And it will always stay that way. The Beatles never made me want to pick up a guitar, learn how to play, then form a band. But KISS did. And so did Queen. And so did Black Sabbath.
Any song with Ringo singing on it is far from perfect.
It's obvious you know nothing about KISS. KISS was hired as the first act on the newly formed Casablanca Records.
Neil Bogart heard their demo tape, which was recorded by Eddie Kramer, and loved the music. They were offered the recording contract. It was after this that Bogart saw photos of KISS. He wanted KISS to remove the makeup, KISS said no, and KISStory was made.
It began with the music. It's always been about the music, first.
When it comes to average musicians, there are drummers who drum circles around Roger Taylor, guitarists who are far better than Brian May, bass players like Geddy Lee who make John Deacon look like a 1st year student, piano players like Elton John who simply embarrass Freddie Mercury's playing, and singers like Steve Perry who outshined him on cd and live in concert. Queen put out a lot of crap throughout their career. They put out their share of below average songs.
So, you're now speaking for and interpretting for Brian May? Shut the fuck up already.
[/QUOTE]
I have the feeling that:
a) it is not Queen's music that made you a Queen fan,
b) you are a Queen fan because you saw positive association between Brian May and Roger Taylor and the band members of KISS
c) if Brian and Roger had made negative remarks about KISS etc, you would not be a Queen fan.

I brought up my sexuality due to your homophobia. If you were racist, and I was black, I would have brought that up. If you were anti-Semtic, I would have brought up my being Jewish. Stupid and nasty child.
BTW, I LOVE being bi. I'm not ashamed of it. My only issue is with homophobes like you. I will say this again; PLEASE stop with this homophobia. Whether I read your posts is irrelevent; if you had any decency, you would cease with this disgusting behaviour.

OMG, why the hell are Queenzone members' orientations being brought up AGAIN and AGAIN? Last I heard: Mike, Sheer Brass Attack, and myself aren't gay, and if Amazon is Bi--that's cool: No problem. I also don't recall this site being named "Kisszone" (cough cough).
Another thing, knock off the homophobic comments.

Why didn't you just write something like that in the first place? It makes so much more sense than your Kiss-oriented revisionism of popular music history.
Isn't it also okay to like a band for your own reasons? I remember you telling me I liked Kiss for the wrong stuff in another thread .... which is utter baloney. Surely I am the one who decides what is appealing about an act? I like them because they connect with a certain part of my sense of humour, and my fondness for a period in 70's music. I don't like them just because I think I should be worshipping them as rock gods.

Queen put out a lot of crap throughout their career. They put out their share of below average songs.
So, you're now speaking for and interpretting for Brian May? Shut the fuck up already.

I have the feeling that:
a) it is not Queen's music that made you a Queen fan,
b) you are a Queen fan because you saw positive association between Brian May and Roger Taylor and the band members of KISS
c) if Brian and Roger had made negative remarks about KISS etc, you would not be a Queen fan.

I purchased "Live Killers" in the late '70s. Thanks for playing.

The fact that you constantly focus on my sexuality (and that of male Queen fans) suggests that you are either genuinely homphobic or you are a troll who doesn't know when to stop. Enough is enough!

You're the one who had the need to declare that you were gay. Honestly, I could give a rat's ass who you sleep with.
Maybe you have issues with your own sexuality. Otherwise, why the need to bring it up on a Queen discussion board?
If my posts bother you so much, then simply don't read them.

I brought up my sexuality due to your homophobia. If you were racist, and I was black, I would have brought that up. If you were anti-Semtic, I would have brought up my being Jewish. Stupid and nasty child.
BTW, I LOVE being bi. I'm not ashamed of it. My only issue is with homophobes like you. I will say this again; PLEASE stop with this homophobia. Whether I read your posts is irrelevent; if you had any decency, you would cease with this disgusting behaviour.

Cunty bitch. See, I can be nasty if you also choose to be.
If you respond, I'll respond back. Your choice.

I don't give a rat's ass about The Beatles. Neither do a lot of people. Who cares if they're the biggest band in the world?
I don't. I never gave them any of my money. And it will always stay that way. The Beatles never made me want to pick up a guitar, learn how to play, then form a band. But KISS did. And so did Queen. And so did Black Sabbath.
Any song with Ringo singing on it is far from perfect.
It's obvious you know nothing about KISS. KISS was hired as the first act on the newly formed Casablanca Records.
Neil Bogart heard their demo tape, which was recorded by Eddie Kramer, and loved the music. They were offered the recording contract. It was after this that Bogart saw photos of KISS. He wanted KISS to remove the makeup, KISS said no, and KISStory was made.
It began with the music. It's always been about the music, first.
When it comes to average musicians, there are drummers who drum circles around Roger Taylor, guitarists who are far better than Brian May, bass players like Geddy Lee who make John Deacon look like a 1st year student, piano players like Elton John who simply embarrass Freddie Mercury's playing, and singers like Steve Perry who outshined him on cd and live in concert. Queen put out a lot of crap throughout their career. They put out their share of below average songs.

Queen's my second favorite group. With that said, they also released some shitty lps and a bunch of shitty songs.
Did I just offend the Queen taint lickers? LOL
Can't stand Ace. He's not in my dreams. He must be what you're fantasing about.[/QUOTE]
