EDIT : tcc was faster :-)

23rd was the announcement that he had aids and 24th was the day he passed away. Long live his memory and his music.

Anybody else sad enough to have watched "An Unearthly Child" tonight?

I heard the news on the radio. Freddie had confirmed his disease... When I showed up at work the next morning my colleagues told me Freddie died! I really couldn't believe them. I thought they misinterpreted the news from the day before. I actually got mad at them. But then I turned on the radio in the storageroom... The rest of the day / week I was very upset.
I also recall a broadcast on our local radiostation wich I produced at that time. We played Queen records all night long instead of our regular two hour show. We never had much telephonecallers on the show but that night we had to use all available lines. Later on we did a special on Made In Heaven on the day of it's release.

And for an explanation: he was the guy who did a duet with Micheal Jackson, but not the only gay in the village...

On a happier note, 12 years since BM toured Oz for the first and only time.
