Who recalls the sheer excitement of our boys playing a full show together for the first time in over a decade?
I sure as hell do.
That is all :-)

Me too. Thought the QPR collaboration was pretty good and thought the Cosmos Rocks was a better than most review gave it credit for. Wish they had been able to get over whatever differences they had and gave us one or two more albums of new music.

Really love that tour. Amazing.
10 years ago? Time does fly.

Brixton was amazing. My brain overloaded and in the end I almost couldn't take it in. Plus it was the only time I met any Queenzoners IRL.

Amazing. I saw them a couple of weeks later in Vienna, Múnich, Prague and Leipzig. To me, The Cosmos Rocks had enough to make me think a second album could have been great. Too bad they didn't stick together longer (still it was almost 4 years). I will forever be grateful to Paul Rodgers for getting Brian and Roger back on the road, which lots of people now seem to take for granted and even like to complain.

Brilliant!
Ten years after we are sill talking about Queen headlining Rock in Rio. It´s just more than what i expected and i´m very grateful that they are still playing live.
Thanks for bringing this to my attention.

Hey, The Real Wizzard, I am sure you remember this one off, so why do you consider that it does not count as a full show? Is it too short to qualify?

Yeah, i remember that time, the excitement to see Brian & Roger on the road again. Brixton, and that gig in South Africa.
That was probably the first time i read music press. I wanted to know more about the tour and that Paul Rodgers. All what came after that, the 2005 Tour and the Cosmos Tour were the first chance to some of us to see Brian & Roger live.

Yeah, that just doesn't register for me. It was a mini-set, mostly with a bunch of guest singers. And they were under-rehearsed - especially Roger.
As far as I see it, 3-28-05 was when they were really back.

I agree!
But the bass player that day was awsome. If i remember correctly that guy really embraced Deacy style into his playing and it was fantastic. But hey, at least someone reharsed :-)
2005 was the year Queen got back to music. And Paul Rpdgers was just magical. I don´t agree with the way the press is treating Paul Rodgers this day, comparing him to Adam Lambert and saying that Adam is "better" or more suited. Paul Rodger did a fantastic job (at 55y.o and 58y.o), and to this day i completely melt when i hear this guy singing Queen songs live, or his own repertoire with Queen. He´s so relaxed, it´s like meditating.

Wow, ten years ago, kinda seems like yesterday. Fair play to Paul for getting involved and allowing us to see "Queen" live again. I went to Dublin in 2005, stood 20 feet away from Brian while he did the guitar solo, hairs standing on end, euphoric.
