No worries...... Thought it sounded like a shot from the hip rather than a considered response.
>Hold tight, and when another doc comes along, no doubt new stuff will be revealed.
Not holding my breath - can't see any viable future opportunities to expand on "Days Of Our Lives" - it's all been done.[/QUOTE]
You never know mate. I'm sure there is loads of unseen footage.

I doubt that means anything. He was all over the The Great Pretender documentary and that was made by the "Queen machine" as well.

Why would Brian even have much of an opinion, freestone was part of Freddie's entourage not queen especially, he enjoys remonising and taking about his time with Freddie from time to time, I can't see a issue, I'm sure he feels it all ended too soon.
And there is another Freddie doc coming, don't expect too much (or anything) it's on channel 5 at some point.
Hopefully the movie thing is a dead duck.

Bingo. That approach is generally bad for business.
But I don't think that has anything to do with his absence from the Queen scene in recent years. He was one of Freddie's pals and has said all that needs to be said (and much, much more). So he's just living his life now, like hundreds of other people who were around the band at one point or another.

My personal view is that Roger and Brian fought for years to keep the press at bay, and in fact so did Phoebe to some extent during Freddie's life, but Roger and Brian were more concerned that private lives shouldn't be sprawled over the papers.
Then suddenly you get Phoebe in 2004/2005 talking openly about Freddie's sex life, Freddie's life with AIDS, Freddie's friendship with Kenny Everett, some really personal and sometimes inappropriate information, and I think that probably Brian and Roger felt there might be some level of betrayal there.
Yes, perhaps he knows 'too much' - in that he'd know Freddie's side of any arguments from within the band, but more so I think it's probably that Phoebe disclosed some pretty personal information about Freddie in documentaries 12 or so years ago.
Now, whether it was right or wrong for Phoebe to disclose that information is a matter for a different thread, and what is done is done, but if I was Brian or Roger, I'd probably feel slightly betrayed.
Of course that might not be the reason for the radio silence at all, there might be something quite simple.

I must have missed all the fun. What suff did he say about Freddie? Any sources I can read up on?

I understood a while back that part of the reason you didn't really have Phoebe on DOOL was because Queen and the documentary team wanted to have people interviewed who weren't already a major staple of the post-Freddie Queen documentary/interview scene.
In any case, you people are forgetting that Phoebe was interviewed for the spinoff "The Great Pretender" documentary anyway!
