(For fun) "You know you're a Queen fan when...."

Just for a bit of fun, complete the topic title with something that defines you as a huge Queen fan. For example, mine would be;

"You know you're a Queen fan when a live track comes around on iPod shuffle and you know which gig it is by the sound of first five seconds of crowd noise"

Next......

If you post on a forum with a troll named gerry

"You know you're a Queen fan when even the cat meows on Delilah hits you as some kind of misunderstood sonic masterpieces"

That word's not allowed!

"You know you're a Queen fan when you hear that legendary vocal improvisation, and you know who is."

Fan going out the Wembley Stadium, 1986. (?)

Haha! That is sooo me! I was telling a friend how playfully genius that part is, and she looked at me like I was insane!

Anyway, here's mine:
You know you are a Queen fan when you buy any crap that QPL keeps reissuing and reissuing and re.......

...when you come to Queenzone and shit on everything Brian May says and does while making a hero out of Deacon

...you think Delilah isn't embarrassing

...see having an opening act for Queen as pointless.

...dancing to "Living on my own" in a Munich Club in 93´ (21 years..man where have they gone ?)

...sharing beer and sausages ( Bratwurst) with Italian fans during a holiday at the Adriatic sea in 88`...( still wonder if they understand any of the lyrics ?...I don`t know...very passionate people...that´s for sure.

...sitting in a outdoor vine bar in Yugoslavia in Summer 91`and realized that they will never come back as a band despite the fact that Freddie still was alive at that point ( hits me totally out of the blue)

...wearing a "Miracle" Longsleeve Shirt for "Schützenfest" ( Did I`really do that ???) And ripped it on a fence on my way back home ( binch drinking ) ... Yes, I still have it ;)

... when you know the way turn by turn to where the Fairy Feller's Masterstroke painting is located in a certain gallery of the Tate museum in London and you also know it's not currently on display despite being located 3,662 miles away in some other nation. Why do I know this??

You know you're a Queen fan when you see some random letters (like LOMQ) and start thinking Queen song names

....... when Freddie's voice is more familiar to you than anybody else's.

.............when, over the last 40 years, you've had, cats , dogs, goldfish and canaries named Freddie.

They came back as a band............uh........as kind of a 'half band' that Roger once railed against, with live hired guns and guest singers, but you know that, so never mind............


My contributions..........

You know you're a Queen fan when..........


you have a mp3 player with 4 gb of memory and a 16 gb AND a 32gb memory card.........and more than half of all that is filled up with Queen FLAC bootlegs.........

and you once walk around for half a day with some song stuck in your head..........and realize it's Hangman..........

and you find it amusing that you realized you were driving a Mercury down Mercury Drive while listening to Freddie Mercury (I swear, that happened, didnt even plan it.........)

.........when you ignore your parents at 15, get on a bus with your mate, travel all the way from Wales to Manchester to see the band live for the first time ( 1974 ).

You know you are a Queen fan when you care about Live Aid.
