I'm torn. I think the audience is going to lean toward wanting to hear the big hits, since some only know those (the newer fans) but I would love to hear a few deep tracks, and it would be amazing if they did something live that was from the new Freddie tracks, but it would pack so much more of a punch if they released it as a single first, so the audience would be acquainted with it with Freddie's voice first. Still, unless they're really playing their cards close to their vest I can't imagine they'll be anywhere near ready for this with less than a month to go before the tour begins. Fingers crossed, though.

If AL were to sing unreleased Queen/Freddie songs during this upcoming tour, it would not sit well with me at all.
If he sang anything from MIH...that wouldn't sit well as well.
I can put that out there even though I'm not able to go to any shows :P

Well my beautiful wife bought us tickets for the Perth show. I didn't get to see them in '85 so this is the closest I'll get. I know it won't be the same but looking forward to seeing Brian & Roger playing in the flesh! I hope they do some rarer live tracks, not just a greatest hits tour!

LOLOL. Looks like Adam's taking a page from Brian and Roger's book I'm betting he was advised specifically on this from those two so they were all in sync. Smart. Here's what Brian said a couple of months back:
"Anyone that doesn't want to hear us, thanks, goodbye. No problem."
Also interesting that they're discussing writing together. I imagine if they decide to do an album, they'll take a similar stance as they did originally - all members get writing credit for the songs. What a great learning experience for Adam if he gets to write with these legends.

Oops, sorry, missed the 'Posted by an Australian line'.
I wish it was me going to Australia -- I've always wanted to go there, but I don't foresee that happening during the rest of my lifetime! I can't even get to New York City!

I've been to NYC three times. It's great! Wish I could actually live there, I feel so much more at home there than I do here in Edmonton :)

I've been to NYC at least 5 times, mostly business, but I always added on time to visit friends, etc. It's one of the best cities in the world, imo. I know it's densely populated (I think the latest figure is >12M) but each neighborhood feels like a community to me, and I've experienced the opposite of the stereotype - helpful, friendly people.
One of my all-time favorite cities is Toronto. It has a similar vibe to Minneapolis - big city with a small town feel. And both are incredibly clean. Of course Minnesota is the land of 10,000 lakes, and this is actually an underestimate - five very big ones are set right in close proximity to the downtown areas of Minneapolis and St. Paul, which are just 8 miles apart. There's more green space per capita in MN than in most other US cities because the Scandinavian immigrants really valued the outdoors for recreation and nature. One of our Managers based out of Norway was at headquarters visiting, and one night he took off cross-country skiing in the heart of the city, through a creek/wooded area. Sat outside, built a fire, made a pot of coffee, did some star watching. That to me sums up the Scandinavian mentality I've seen through their descendants here. Actually it's Norwegians, Swedes and Finns to the north, and Irish and German to the south - because the climates in northern and southern Minnesota were a lot like the native lands to those groups. I went to college with a few friends from a largely Finnish area up north and almost without exception, rich or poor, each family had their own, usually outdoor, sauna. There was always a sauna before a party night out on weekends up there. Great people!

You "bet" he was advised and taking a page from their book? Has AL a thought in his head that is purely his own?
"You imagine" yes that's what you do plenty. If they do write together hopefully it will not be on any Queen release.
