Ask Phoebe Questions

Hi guys. The days are winding down to the Official Freddie Mercury birthday party in Montreux. I will be doing some filming there for my Freddie Mercury film and I wanted to reach out to fans to see if they have any questions they'd like me to ask Phoebe.

I would like to know which song or songs were hard for Freddie to remember during Tours

Just the usual stuff about Freddie's artwork. Why hasn't there ever been a collection of his college work/personal published in book form?.

Probably a question for Jim Beach though.


Phoebe's never answered it on his blog as far as I know. I've seen the few snippets in the untold story but that's about all.

Oh and what's with the missing photo he references in his book? (I'll try to look up the page he indicates it)

Maybe ask whether Freddie was ever approached to do a song for a soundtrack in an animated film. I totally coulda seen Freddie become part of that 90's Disney soundtrack mastery.

Great questions! :)

If anyone thinks of any others, please post them. I will report back with the answers I get!

Hey guys. I'm heading off to Montreux in a few days. Just wanted to see if anybody has any more questions they'd like me to ask.

Be interesting to hear if Phoebe heard anything, at the time, about possible live dates being arranged or at least talked about around the release of The Miracle.

Hello, I would like to know how the friendship with Dave Clark was and how come he never got mentioned but it seems that he was alot of times with Freddie, especially in the last years.

Thanks

Freddie was friends with a lot of people, but very very few got mentioned by name by Freddie at any time. Names and connections came to light after FM's death because other people named friends in books etc.

Dave Clark was known to be someone Freddie knew, but why single him out.

This would be an interesting one. I'd love to see if they had even hoped at one point to do some TM shows.

Awesome! I will let you know how it goes. :)

Ask him if he has ever considered a proper job since his meal ticket died more than 2 decades ago.

I generally really like Pheobe, but it does amaze me how he's managed to justify making a living virtually just through his having known Freddie, even after all these years.

Hence, his talent for what he did for Freddie: greasing wheels, smoothing things, making friends.

*Greasing friends, making wheels and smoothing things.

Phoebe is a hanger-on. He has managed to make damn good money because he was one of Freddie's maids. He makes money to sign his autograph and showing slide shows of cats! He wrote 2 or 3 books about Freddie that he made money from. The man is obsessed and I have yet to see any female pRtner in his life.....ever
