Ok some news i wanna hear about who went to the anthems tour on sunday? Going to liverpool on tues and want to find out the set list or even see some footage from sundays tour. Cant wait to find out what other songs they do and even if brian sings a few songs. Hope rufus joins them on the tour also and maybe roger appears somewhere.

What a great concert opening... looking forward for more footage!

OMG! I'm in love with Kerry's legs :-)

Thanks for the You Tube link "Dangerland" great track heard its being released as Rock Mix single. Didnt like the intro in Royal Albert hall with the dancers etc. Brians introduction looked a bit unrehearsed.  Rufus on drums, Concert looked full as i think there was talk that not many people were going. Ok liverpool tomorrow will post some footage on here when i get back. And does anyone know if Royal albert hall concert was on radio or beinging filmed for future release. cheers.

You want to know the setlist?
Why not just go and be surprised.... (or not)
What is it with people wanting spoilers these days?

It looks and sounds dreadful. Dancers ... ugh! KE is not a sex bomb: she has a face like a man's foot. What happened to Brian May, rock god? He used to be a gunslinger; now he's some sort of ragged showbiz luvvie.

Still, each to his own. Not to my personal tastes but I'm sure it will please some.

Setlist:

Complete Anthems (not in order)+ Love of my life (Brian taking 80% of the vocals), Somebody to love, Last horizon, Rock you and champions.

3 of 4 Queen songs were actually Freddie songs.. dedicated to the people who speak rubish about Brian being an "egocentric beast"

Dancers were used just for the intro.. no big deal.. it´s not a "Motorhead" concert man.. relax.

I don´t understand the comment about Kerry not being a sex bomb... this nis not supposed to be a strippers show, is a music concert man, she is there to sing and she is great doing that. Period.

And Brian.. well, according to the people who attended the gig, his perfomance was almost perfect, he rocked in moments who demanded rock treatment and played beatifully to the songs of the album. What else we can expect from him, I don´t understand your point Holly.

cheers.

Some more Youtube links Defying Gravity, NOBY, STL, Last Horizon and part of LOML...

Re: dancers, I can't stand them. They don't go well with rock and roll. If you were old enough, and British enough, to remember Pans People on Top of the Pops then maybe you would see where I'm coming from ;)

Re: Kerry's looks, I was responding to others who seem to think she is a sex bomb. IMO she's not, and it's probably not a good idea for her to push that too much. Again, my opinion. Of course, she can do what she likes and others can get as horny as they want over her. 

Re: Brian, well a while back we had the Foo Fighters convincing Brian to play Sleeping on the Sidewalk" and there was talk of a Taylor-Hawkins tour -- exciting stuff indeed. Now we're back to showbiz instead of rock, and the same old WWRY/WATC performances again. Dull. Safe. Moribund. Not for me :(

Nice one thanks for set list, Liverpool supposed to be more rock than opera so should be good. The show must go on and yeah i like to know what set lists are seen queen brian and roger on many tours and want to know what im expecting. Cheers will post stuff tomorrow after gig.

Good fucking job that Freddie never sold out and released a fucking opera album with some female.

Your point being ...?

The dancing was ridiculous in principle, and just bad dancing beyond that.  And anybody who hasn't noticed that all the endless hanging around in the West End has shaped Brian's artistic instincts in ways that are both a little disconcerting and a little disappointing perhaps isn't really paying attention.  Or perhaps many just like musical theatre, which is fine, but people who don't want their rock and roll watered down in this way (me) should certainly be allowed that perspective.
