Personally, I don't like the way this topic is labelled. I think it should simply read: "[i][b]Best Queen tour[/b][/i]".
As is, "Original Lineup" implies that Neil Fairclough, Danny Miranda, Jamie Moses, Spike Edney, and Rufus Taylor are/were members of Queen. That just isn't the case.
Queen are Freddie, Brian, John, and Roger. My understanding is that Freddie and John are still current members of Queen even though they don't perform. Freddie for obvious reasons and John because he doesn't want to be involved.
Anyone else that has graced the stage with Queen in the past and currently are considered the "+" in Queen + (Whomever is currently singing for Freddie).[/QUOTE]
If you wanted to get REALLY technical about it, the ORIGINAL Queen lineup is Freddie, Brian, Roger and Mike Grose.......

at the present, Brian + Roger = Queen...........look at the Q+AL tour program........apparently Freddie, Brian, Roger, and John = "Classic Queen"............or think of it as Queen mk I............
Personally I would not have a problem with Adam or the other guys being considered members of the current lineup.............call em uh, Queen + Adam Lambert...............lol..............(seeing as Neil, Rufus, and Spike are not considered members of the band, more like 'touring musicians', ala Darryl Jones with the Rolling Stones)..........
