Big announcement tonight

http://www.queenonline.com/en/news-archive/big-queen-announcement/

IMO it ll be a gig(or a series of gigs) this summer!

Knebworth Park...

The Sonisphere lineup is announced at the same time. Co-incidence? An alledged leak of the Sonisphere poster:-

They announced the announcement on Facebook...

The old geezers on tour would not be BIG NEWS at all for me..

..John Deacon joining them for a couple of small venues.. THAT would be big news!

They're going to be confirmed as Sonisphere headliner's that's for sure. Possibly more?

If they're going to tour with Adam Lambert I'm gonna burn my Queen collection :-(

Could it be John Deacon coming out of retirement to play at the 2012 Olympics opening ceremony with BM and RT ?

could be we will rock you 2?

:)

needless to say it won't be anything to get excited about!

No doubt will be gigs possibly with Adam Lambert. I think we would all rather see Paul Rodgers but such is life, must have been a real rift with Paul as he did mention he would be up for a gig with Queen. Wonder when they'll announce when they are going to re-release the live albums hopefully with much anticipated extras. Many would kill to have perfect versions of 70's concerts.

Wouldn't it be more effective to burn Bri and Rog's gear instead?

Of late, it seems that all you'd need to do to force Roger and Brian into retirement is set up a fish & chips shop in Roger's back yard, and send Brian pictures of hot young (female) singers who could use a career-boost.

NO! DON'T BURN YOUR COLLECTION! You can mail it to me :D

an utter joke if they go out with a karaoke singer

I won't burn my Queen collection - but my respect for brian and roger will take a HUGE dive. on paper, that seems trivial - but these guys have been heroes to me for 20 years.
at one point, about 10 years ago, they lost the plot with five, pepsi etc. but the QPR years were a great way to do it, once they decided to do it

but working with a television karaoke singer? have they put him on hold for 3 yrs hoping people would forget where he came from?
what about the fact that they are going out with YET another singer after Freddie?

it's a JOKE

Kerry Ellis is NOT hot. Weird Face-Forehead ratio.

A tour of some sorts looks probable...

I'd not be shocked to see Queen doing a combo of solo shows as well as shows as openers for Guns N Roses (well Axl Rose and co!) in late May like Brian did back in the early 90s. A couple of festivals also seem probable.

Pretty much 99% certain this will be for Sonisphere. Would be a very big coincidence if it wasn't. Personally I think it would be great to see them back at Knebworth.
