You've more chance of the Queen being there than Brian and Roger.

However,as always,i hope i'm wrong.
I never forget a face, but in your case i'll be glad to make an exception-Groucho Marx
I'm Canadian, so in the end wherever they play won't affect me. Put personally, I think they should play in the UK!
Any way the wind blows...
Australia? Isn't that the rabbit-infested ABBA-loving village that thinks of Queen as "stuck up pommies"? If anything, they'll send Paul Rodgers as a solo act....
Can someone post the rumoured set list so I can complain about it? Thanks.
"Queen is the only band in the world that can play so heavily that your nose bleeds, then offer a silk handkerchief to clean up with."
1. The Cosmos Rocks
2. Cyborg
3. First Glance (Solo Flute)
4. Body Language
5. Shove It
6. We Believe
7. Bombtrack (Rage Against the Machine cover)
8. The Stonk (With Hale, Pace can't make it)
9. Anyone Can Fall in Love (With Anita Dobson)
10. Radio (with Kiki Dee singing Shaky's part)

Encore:

11. No Turning Back (surprise special guest on Bass)
12. We Will Rock You (with 2 members of 5ive)
13. Bohemian Rhapsody (performed in full for the first time by Brian and Roger, with Tony Hadley, Paul Young and Axl Rose helping during the opera section)

A shame it was cancelled as I had already bought my ticket.
As far as Post-freddie Queen goes, Queen never played in Aus. Which is a shame.

Brian has played his Solo shows but they have never came out here as a Queen + band.

WWRY The muscial was first played in Melbourne after being played in the UK before any other place.

If they can warrant that, why cant they play a show here?

Do they feel they wont get enough people to come out and see them???

Who cares... The less people the better... ehehehehe Gives me a chance to have a chat with the boy's

Well not entirely true, Brian and Roger played at the Sydney and Melbourne WWRY after-parties in 2003 and 2004, but they were fairly closed affairs as far as he public was concerned.

AArrrr yes yes, thats true. I forgot about that one.  But yeah, it was more of a show on the back of WWRY.

Which, would of been GREAT to see and I would say, maybe even more enjoyable than an actual show. Due to fact its a very intimate encounter.

On the flip side, big crowd, big chants.. ect ect.

But all the same, they never did anything as a Queen + show. ... So... Leaves a me a little sad with the whole affair..
