Passive shot at Real Wizard?

They're touring Europe (plus Britain) this year. Some people may not be interested (I'm certainly not) but that doesn't change the fact it's happening. That's as on-going as it gets.

21 years with Freddie, 26 without him.

^^^^ True, that! But 26 years of the same old material re-hashed. Nothing new, unless you count The Cosmos Rocks, and a few uninspiring solo albums.But, even those cannot really be called 'Queen'. So I'd hardly call Queen an 'ongoing project'. Their current live performances are just pure nostalgia for hardcore Queen fans, but they are hardly very exciting. Compare Queen+AL to the Rolling Stones' 50 & Counting tour. Now THAT's a rock concert.
I love Queen for their music, so I'd rather watch DVDs of them in their heyday. Brian and Roger when they were at the top of their game! I really don't feel the urge to see them perform now - a bit sad, really.
But that is just my 2 bits.

I think Brian needs to die first before we see anything decent again in terms of live releases. How lugubre it may sound...

It seems that all the clocks stopped somewhere around 1995 and haven't restarted since that. As well as for the band as for the listeners.
But mostly for the band.

And in some sence, we all live in the past.

" 21 years with Freddie, 26 without him"

you could make a similar argument for Elvis and the TCB band, frankly

Beach basically has 100% control of Freddie solo material and lots of demos were released via the boxset all those years ago. I don't see why he'd be willing to release Freddie rarities, but not Queen.[/QUOTE]

Maybe because Freddie wasn't around to say no?

Well I heard at the time that it was released by EMI as a "test" to see how well an Anthology set would sell and give some indication as to how well a Queen Anthology would sell....

There was lots of talk back then about an Anthology set, but as we know, something went wrong in the meantime...
