In the end they are musicians and playing music live is what they love. Why not do it whilst they still can. Who knows, maybe once the touring does finally come to an end then some of the stuff everyone wants may come out. Considering I was 4 years old (in 1974) when Queen last came to my home town seeing them with AL was the chance I had to see Brian and Roger play live. I thought AL did a decent job and it sounded great but end of the day it was Roger and Brian I was there to see (and Spike I guess).

No ones saying they shouldn't tour, do as they wish. That's all we're saying is it's not our cup of tea. Brian and Roger should be playing with respected muscians. The Rodgers era is already forgotton, they recorded a failed studio Record, but at least he was a respected muscian and songwriter. Even if it didn't work as Queen. Sounded more like a paul Rodgers album. Why we're still here if we don't like what they did for the last 20+ years? We're here for the original 4. Mercury, May, Talyor, Deacon. 1973 to 1991. I think bands like The Who and Queen should let the name go. If Zep were touring with lambert they would get critsized as well. If the Beatles toured with Lambert replacing Lennon I think the Beatle fans wouldn't be happy. Of course the young 14 year old lambert fans are helping ticket sales and of course the classic songs from the original 4 helps.
All in all, people saying they shouldn't tour are being ridiculous... but then again, people saying people saying they shouldn't tour are being ridiculous, are also being ridiculous.
Maylor are free to do whatever they want with whomever they want... but so are we. So, if anyone wants to say the tour with the loser from a reality programme is the best thing that's ever happened, they're entitled to; if anyone wants to say the tour is shite, they're entitled to, too. And, no, it doesn't mean everyone who likes Adam is a poseur or a Maylor worshipper, and it doesn't mean everyone who dislikes Adam is homophobic or stuck in the past.

A NotW 40th anniversary release is like Jesus: it doesn't exist.
They Just released all their albums again in 2011, Including NOTW.
The Beatles remastered all their albums in 2009 and they just released the Sgt. Peppers box set. The Stones remastered all their albums from Sticky Fingers onwards in 2009, and in subsequent years have put out deluxe editions for Sticky Fingers, Exile on Main Street and Some Girls. What's stopping Queen from doing the same thing ?

Lack of caring?
I don't think they (Brian and Roger) consider NOTW monumental enough.

Touring with the loser from a reality programme is much more of a priority.
Priest Just re released all their albums, including the worst ones with bonus material, live shows and unreleased songs. NOTW was 10× more monumental than Turbo Lover from priest was.
I dunno. ..TURBO had ....oh right. ..they left that one off the "twin turbos" concept. ..."YOU ARE EVERYTHING" (cover song)
come to think of it. ...i don't really care for Turbo...RAM IT DOWN got back on track and Defenders of the Faith was pretty great...but for some reason that and SIN AFTER SIN don't cut it as GREAT for me
Hmm. ...back to Queen. Nah they're probably not working on anything yet. Brian and Roger are touring...that takes enough. Probably see a DVD from Q+AL to cash in at some time.
Mercury's expected re-re-release as well prob September

Matt, pretty impressed with your Priest history. Yea Turbo And Ram It Down were their low point. Then Painkiller came out and put them back on the map, It was their Innuendo. Painkiller was good but hasn't ages all that great for me. Still good though. Defenders was before Turbo. It was ok. Sin after sin had some classics, but felt like a transitional album for them back in 1977. As far as freddie, I think the next big move will be in sept for his birthday, that's when we'll see the Queen movie. Sept 2018 I'm talking about...lol... One could only hope for the Anthology set at that time as well. We all know that's not happening, but would be nice. I wonder if this sept we'll see anything good.
