Heres a better question, what if Queen toured St.Anger?[/QUOTE]
Then people would be saying, "I guess The Cosmos Rocks wasn't so bad after all."[/QUOTE]
I was actually playing it again last night. (i'm still in disbelief that it was such a dud)
I've come to the conclusion that
1) TCR was horribly rushed
2) Brian, Rog and Paul had no business PRODUCING the album (some miscues etc...in MY mind i think some of the songs dynamics and tempos could have been adjusted to suit a rhythm well)
3) I still maintain that there was a great spirit towards the project, even if there are ridiculous lyrics like "the mysteries and dragons of time will explode"
without focusing on that, there's a lot of worldly reflection and beautiful thoughts towards the album.
Looking at it that way... the only filler is Voodoo.
4)Brian and Rog held back on most QUEEN-isms and there was no bassist... the mix is just pretty dry and soundboardy.
But yes... St Anger... pretty bad. [/QUOTE]

The title track of St.Anger was good IMO, the rest is just plain sad, I mean, using a trash can as a snare drum?

Having said, if they toured the Black Album,

1.Enter Sandman
2.You're My Best Friend
3.Whereever I May Roam
4.Love Of My Life
5.C-lebrity
6.Sad But True
7.Battery
8.39
9.Love Of My Life(reprise)
10.Master Of Puppets
11.Keep Passing The Open Windows
12.Nothing Else Matters
13.The Unforgiven
14.Nevermore
15.We Will Rock You
16.Whiplash
17.We Are The Champions
18.Seek And Destroy
19.Funny How Love Is

Queen + black album would be alsome!

The dream set list should look like this:

Intro of One Vision
1- Ogre Battle
2- Enter the sandman
3- White Queen
4- Wherever I May Roam
5- Gimme the prize
6- Holier Than Thou
7- I want it all
8- Innuendo
9- Nothing Else Matters
10- Love of My Life
11- Unforgiven
12- Fuel
13- Stone Cold Crazy
14- Modern Times Rock n Roll
15- Keep Yorself Alive/drum solo/guitar solo
16- whisky in the jar
17- Don't Tread on Me
18- C-Lebrety
19- Bohemian Rapsody
20- The Show must go on
Encore
21- We will Rock you
22- Sad but true
23- We are the champions

I would be there...and you?

No offense... but i think you missed the point. I'm PRETTTTTY sure this post was all a joke. A super fan's sarcastic interpretation of the ill considered form topic "what if Queen had toured Innuendo"

hmm.. actually it was "assuming Queen toured Innuendo"

and the poster was basically mocking the fact that the album could NOT HAVE EXISTED without the misfortune in the band's and mostly Freddie's life.

dont worry mattz, I know it was a joke, but since black album is a great album I start to imagine how the tour would be.

Also, I've just go to point out that C-Lebrity wouldn't exist for years

EDIT: ...and Whiskey in the Jar, although I love that song.

I'm pretty sure they'd play Go West (by the Pet Shop Boys) instead of Sad But True during the encore - see my set list for a better representation of Queen touring a Metallica album.
