Many years ago, and I have this on video somewhere, MTV or perhaps VH1 had a Queen day. This may have been the anniversary of Freddie's death or his birthday, it was a long time ago. Anyway, the entire day was a tribute to Freddie and Queen. This was in the day when MTV had video jockey's introducing songs. People could ring in and request a Queen song. So I'm watching this tribute, thinking this was amazing, an entire day of a channel playing Queen songs, again, this was early 90's so a weird thing, when they start to play TATDOOL, requested by John Deacon. So I'm thinking wow, that can't be for real. But the song finishes and we go back to the video jock's who say, yes that was the real John Deacon, we did ask him to say a few words, but he declined, just saying they had some wonderful times making those songs.

This isn't my mind playing tricks, I remember it very well, did anyone else catch this?

Cheers,

Al.
If it happened then he was promoting the new single... can't say I remember it...
It happened, no doubt in my mind, I remember it well, unless they at MTV blagged it. There was no new single, this was 92 or 93, nothing new happening.
I remember very well that there was a Queen Day, or a Queen Special on MTV.
But as for the John Deacon /TATDOOL Story...no I couldn`t remember that.

Did the Collectors / Horders have it in full ?

Maybe Sebastian will know that, he knows everything (he thinks)
I remember it just as you told it ! It was Queen day on VH1 around 96/97.

Amazing how many people believe it's real.

No, I don't know that, I don't think I know everything ... are you in love with me or something? Why the need to mention me in a completely unrelated topic? Moreover, can you even read? I've cleared up many times that I do NOT think I know everything.
John hated Hot Space. Frederick's favourite singer was not Paul Rodgers. Roger didn't compose 'Innuendo.' 'Bohemian Rhapsody' hasn't got 180 vocal overdubs.
'TOTDOOL',sound like a 'Hot Space' deeper cut!

That doesn't mean that you don't know everything.
