Hangman acetate or John S Stuart or deceives us

"John has paid good money for this, it's HIS investment"

Pffff...  like I said, I'm glad for him that he's preserving it for posterity (if nothing else) but it wouldn't bother me one iota if it was stolen or confiscated.  It'd be his fault for sinking money into something that he can't use and something that shouldn't have been in his grasp in the first place.

I've rethought it a bit, and saving it for posterity is all well and good - but one copy of something is a lot less secure than 10000.  Some people have never heard of "taking one for the team".

For those of you who hear the voices in their heads: I recommend you to visit a shrink guys.

"Supposedly John Stuart has acetate studio version of the song "Hangman" and alleged he had promised her to lay out the network. if QPL  do not release it officially. today April 20 and he keeps a deathly silence. I think he has no acetate, no one  did not sell to him this  version.

1: Your assertion is True. I do not own this acetate. It does not exist. I made it all up from a figment of my imagination, and I am a cheat and a liar, and for the past 20 years this had given me nothing but respect, kudos, and the adulation of the millions of Queen fans I have duped over the years. This lie is my primary source of income, so to retract it now would mean that I would live the remainder of my life homeless, and busking badly, while begging for lose change.

2: Your assertion is False. I do own the acetate (or pehaps even did - who knows), but being the private elusive individual I am, have decided to keep quiet because I enjoy my own reclusivity.

3: If number 2 above is true (that is your assertion is false) WHY in the name of all that is Holy, would I have the slightest desire to share this rarity? If it exists, it probobly cost me more, than you paid for your house. So let me get this correct.
You want me to purchase with my very hard earned cash - to pay for a very expensive and exclusive work of art, which you feel somehow you should be entitled to - and that I should hand a copy of this artifact over to you for free - because you deserve it? Do you want the keys to my house and car also? You want me to throw my children in with such a deal too?

Tell you what - if you want a copy of this acetate - or any other Queen related rarity, please in future do not contact me.
By far and away the greatest collector and hoarder of all Queen related material, and the best person in the world to contact would be Dr. Brian H. May at http://www.brianmay.com/

I am sure he too will be delighted to hand over to you the keys to the Queen vault, and allow you access to all those nice rarities he has accumulated over the years. After all, I only own a "silver tea-spoon" (hypothetically speaking ofcourse), while he on the other hand owns the complete set of tableware (as it were).

I therefore do not think it is too selfish of me to say, for an equal percentage of rarities released - I too will match his altruism, and I can't say fairer than that can I?

JSS, I respect you immensely, but to make a comment that a record "probably cost me more, than you paid for your house" is troubling.  I mean, let's be honest here....it's a freaking record.  Who cares?  Even if it is Queen.  I'm a huge Queen fan, as I'm sure most of us are up here, but let's get real here.  Is a record worth more than a house?  No.  And I'm not bitching at you, as I stated earlier, but that is what's wrong with society - the stupid things we value.  I mean any of us can go on a tirade about things that we value and what is important, but we all need to come back down to earth.

I think that you will find that John's bit about this acetate costing more than the thread starters home is meant as a joke - largely at the expense of the thread starter. I dont think even he would pay that sort of money for an acetate. But even if he did, thats entirely up to him.

You are probably correct (and I'm sure JSS was joking), but my main point is that we are getting too spun up over a freaking record.  It is a record.  It will not change the world or make much of a difference.  Here is what the real issue with 'Queen World' is as I see it.  The band is essentially dead and has their time is over.  These 'reissues' are a joke as many up here have said, and there is no real reason to be excited about Queen and any future releases.  If they were serious about their legacy then they would be doing more than releasing a shitty series of singles box sets and rehashing their albums, AGAIN, with most of them not really sounding much better than the originals or other reissues (I am making this assumption on what others have said about the sound quality - I don't own any and WILL NOT buy any of these).

So to go back to the original comment, yes I agree that JSS was joking but there is a point to what I said.  Carry on.  And JSS, you do rock.

Jake Britt was Corey Feldman's character from Stand By Me and when Lostman makes those ridiculous threats, I always hear them in my head as though they were spoken by Ivan Drago in Rocky IV.
I had been struggling to put a voice to Goodoldfashionedloverboy for a while but having read this thread, I've finally nailed it. It's the Hungarian national played by John Cleese in Monty Python's Flying Circus ("I will not buy this record, it is scratched" and "My hovercraft is full of eels").
Go back and re-read his bollocks in that voice and they're even funnier.

fatty.

Fatty, you are the best.  In my opinion, you are the most talented guy here, no one can touch you.  Heck, that's not even an opinion - it's the TRUTH.  Everyone else can just understand, accept, and move on.

Funny Fatty should say that. I keep hearing Borat:  "Thieez eez my seester...."

And "Goodbye sadly clown" could very well be the title of, let's say, a new Deaky solo album. Actually, it's brilliant!

That's more something for his posthumous album.

Josh,

You're right in many ways, however, the facte remains that, despite QPLs continuing attempts at pissing long-term fans and collectors off with sub-standard re-issues and "product", the smallest shred of hope still remains in the minds of *US* as people who are looking out for something of rarity value.

Queen's very best days were the era 1971-1977 in the studio and *ANYTHING* that might just add to the weight of that cannon is or would be absolute gold.  Something as trite as "Feelings Feelings" just shows how easily Queen were able to make cracking rock songs and make them sound alive, fresh and exciting.  If "Hangman" were to appear then it'd be a massive piece of the overall Queen jigsaw and QPL should have seen to this issue years ago.

They haven't and didn't and we are all the worse off for it.  It's John's to do as he pleases and with any luck, one day, we may get a low-fi MP3 of it available on QZ - we most lkely won't and I have no problem with it.

QPL could have removed all debate very quickly and simply but they are (were) too greedy and lazy to be bothered.

I have a quick question, is Goodoldfashionedloverboy the user who was known as community?
