Has Brian Gresh left the band? [/QUOTE]

Haven't heard anything official yet but a fan commented on the official QE Facebook page that Brian Gresh's wife is expecting so he is skipping this tour.

Jennifer Espinoza is not listed as a band member either. No idea if she is just missing this tour like Brian or of they have shrunk the band again.

I think Nick Radcliffe is from WWRY.[/QUOTE]
Thanks for the info. Very happy for Brian G! He's a really nice, genuine guy, I was happy for him getting the QE gig.

When is this "Hong Kong Sevens" concert ? Will there be a big audience?
Basically blind em and deaf em in the first 10 minutes, and while they are recovering from that put in the less good songs

I saw QE in June of 2012 at a House of Blues in North America. They were awesome and I heartily recommend it to anyone who can attend. They had 4 singers in that show -- Marc, Jennifer Espinoza, Jeff Scott Soto and a fella from France (can't remember his name). I was worried how Adam was going to perform all of the songs that it took 4 singers to do when he went on tour with Brian and Roger in June-July, 2012. Now I see that Marc is also performing the songs himself. Should be great! Go!

That would be because she too is pregnant :-)

Anyone knows if Brian Gresh or Tristan will be back? I will miss those two really. I know i sounds stupid, but I dont like the idea of getting a bald stand in on guitar :P

Marc is going to find it hard work doing all the lead vocals (excet Tyler Warren does a couple of numbers from the drums). Also I like Jennifer and how her voice harmonised with Marc, she has a low voice for a woman and was singing the lower part at least some of the time.

Brian Gesh was good, no idea if the replacement will be as good but at least there is a replacement.

I don't like the idea of the QE band shrinking. The point was to do the songs more like the albums, and with a band of 5 the same as Queen had (with Spike) that isn't going to be possible.

I'm glad she's having a baby, honestly.

She'll make a good mom :-) And musical talent does seem to run in her family, so who knows?

Is the show worth seeing and hearing, or is it something to avoid - a painful experience?

Definitely worth it!

It's on March 29. From what I've been able to glean, Hong Kong Sevens is the Asian rugby world series and QE the main act in the halftime show.

The "fella from France" is Yvan Pedneault who is Canadian from Quebec. He was in the Toronto production of WWRY.

Now, do you have to find a way to inject AL into every post you make? And every time you mention QE, do you have to bring up how "worried" you were that AL couldn't sing Queen songs (how worried can you be when you believe AL's a technically better singer than Freddie?) followed by the ridiculous comment that QE needs 4 singers to perform songs that AL do all by himself. QE used 4 singers on the first tour so they could perform the all the harmonies on Queen songs like Bo Rhap, In The Lap Of The Gods, and Somebody To Love. Now surely you have to admit, that as perfect as AL is, he cannot sing Bo Rhap in full all by himself like QE did. ;-)

Whoa! I guess she's leaving the band for good then (instead of paternity leave like Brian) since her name was taken off the official site while Brian's wasn't?

Brian will be back but Tristian won't because they decided to stick with one guitarist in the band. Tristan is currently the lead guitar on the WWRY North American tour, so that's probably why they couldn't have him sub for Brian.
