A 'Farewell Queen' Gig? Who would play

Metallica would be more fitting to play Stone Cold Crazy being that they won a grammy for it lol.
John Deacon of course would be the ultimate inclusion.... But if he did do that.... It may end up not being a Queen farewell concert, Roger and Brian may try tempt him to do more concerts and a supsquent album after they realise just how much they have missed his amazing bass sound ;) If John had stayed on after the only the good die young recording.... Could Queen ever make it as a three piece...? Both Brian and Roger are great vocalist's

I've been thinking what I would love to see happen (not that I think it would) is for Brian and Roger to say to hell with getting a singer....bring Spike Edney and get a bass player (since John aint gonna do it apparently!) ........Queen as an actual four piece BAND again, not Brian and Roger and singer x.... and whoever as touring musicians.....

Adam Lambert
Marc Martel (not sure, don't want a Freddie impressionist

Anyone else?

I like this list, apart from almost all the people on it. Grohl, Hawkins and Alice Cooper can stay, perhaps Elton too. Paul can stay too as long as he doesn't sing any songs with "ooooooooh" in them.

You are probably right though, this is probably the sort of dreck they would invite.

Queen haven't played live as a four piece since Montreal in 1981. If they did as you suggest there would be a lot more pressure on BM and RT. Having to sing lead and play.
