Roger and Brian doing Tenement Funster

I bet if someone tried to sell it to Brian that way, he'd be game!

Hahaha yeah I thought of that after I typed it. I'm just too clever for my own good! :)

I would travel the thousand of miles required and go to several shows if they toured like that.  Tenement Funster is one of those songs that more music fans who don't really know Queen should hear..they'd appreciate Queen more.  Same with Long Away.   Sleeping on the Sidewalk, live? Wow!

Many thanks for this, I think it's awesome!

That would be awesome .... and if only Danny could be replaced by some JD, then that would be .... F***** AWESOME !!

I prefer Danny, because the background vocals between the five of them are much better than when it was just Freddie,
Brian, and Roger.

That would be great, but I'm sure they could fill venues a lot bigger than theatres. I think 2000-3000 people wouldn't be a problem at all.

Theaters in the U.S. are in the 1,000 to 3,000 range.  They wouldn't be able to fill arenas here (Queen + Paul Rodgers
didn't fill the arena I saw them at).  The theater tour I mentioned would contain mostly obscure Queen songs, so the general public wouldn't know them.

I think the point of doing theatres rather than arenas is so that there is a more intimate feel to the gigs, which lends itself to a more relaxed atmosphere in which to play the non hits albums tracks, rather than the 'sheds' which are more suited to the 'greatest hits' tours
Correct.

They would be focusing on the music rather than the production.

a theatre gig with the above mentioned tracks and more "rarities" such as:

Modern Times Rock´n Roll
Some Day One Day
She Makes Me
Good Company
Drowse
Fight From the Inside
Leaving Home Ain´t Easy
Fun It ....

And many other rare Brian/Roger compositions that Freddie sang ....
Get rid of "She Makes Me" and "Fun It" and I'll purchase a ticket.

Thanks for posting this.

Roger's voice sounds awesome.  It's great to see him drumming and singing, and shows what benefit the rehearsals ad tours with Paul Rodgers have done to invigorate and sharpen him.  I remember in The Cross and solo days he didn't play and sing at the same time for anything substantial cos he said it was too hard work now ( and that was 15 years ago!!)
