Age plays a huge part in what a band will or will not do, speaking as someone that has played in a band for nearly 40 years now I can tell you that you do adjust your set to reflect how you feel and what you are capable of doing, they are not angry young men anymore..... get over it, Queen have always had slightly odd ideas of what the fans wanted, in much the same way that Zepplin never released singles at the height of the single market, it somehow worked and kept them apart from 'other' bands, I think in some ways the fact that Queen show little of the how things are recorded and outtakes does leave tham also slightly apart from others and maintains the mystery, or maybe misery!
Fact is you can watch the same old shows on DVD for the rest of your life but if you want to see a glimmer of what made them so great go see them, they can still put on one of the best rock shows out there

Brian and Roger are great in what they do with Queen.

It's not compulsory for him to do what we want him to do. Whoever's not interested in the concerts with Adam (e.g. myself) can simply refrain from attending, it's that simple. Same if you don't wanna watch his workout videos or read his tweets.[/QUOTE]
If you don't like what the OP says, it isn't compulsory for you to reply or for him to do what you want him to do. Whoever's not interested in his topic/ideas can simply refrain from replying or trying to project their opinion on what someone should say or do, it's that simple.
Same if you don't want to read what he says in other topics, or anyone for that matter, if they don't correspond with exactly how YOU want someone to think.
Hope this helps.

I find this tour the least exciting of all the Q+AL tours. I stand by my views that it could have been so much better.

Fantastic. I was hoping you'd be able to deduce the utter redundancy in your post to him. I had hoped my post would allow you to take a step back and not feel so compelled to post your own thoughts on how others should live their life and how to think.
Glad my post was able to reach you. Feel free to reply to this, I know you must.
Sebastian · Member since
No, it's not a must, it's a choice. I'm not compelled to tell anyone else how to think or how to live, I've just got as much right as you or anybody else to suggest a favourable choice (in this case, ignoring) if I feel so inclined.
If someone's annoyed at Brian and Roger touring with Adam they can simply refrain from seeing them live. It's not an order, it's not a rule, it's not a law, it's just a comment. A Captain Obvious sort of comment, but a comment nonetheless.
Then again, if you criticise the fact I'm allegedly telling others what to do, while you're doing the same to me, then you're in no position to moan about it anyway.
N0_Camping4U · Member since
Oh not moaning, I don't care, just pointing it out to you as you seem oblivious.
I see you doing it in just about every topic.
Hope this helps.
Sebastian · Member since
There are hundreds of threads in this forum, I seriously doubt I'm 'doing it in just about every topic.'
If you don't care and still took the time to write to me about it and then check my response, then I wonder what you'd do if you did care. You seem oblivious of that as well.
The strategy's quite sneaky, though: had I refrained from replying to your previous post, it may have looked like you'd 'won' by 'shutting me up'; since I did reply, it may look like you were right and I had some sort of uncontrollable desire to keep arguing, thus having you 'win' in that case as well.

What can we make of these quotes by Brian ???
Really their last tour??
**Yes, still grateful ... but the amount of energy in one body has a finite limit !
** what the back of the tour T-Shirt says ! You start to ponder what you took on, and how many days you have left to make these kinds of choices.
**Around this point in the tour, you start to ponder ...
**Good Morning ! Back on the horse ! We're bound for Dublin's fair city. Where the girls are passing pretty. Nice day for it ! I'm grateful to see the Sun. And grateful to be healthy enough to do this.
**Another day, another exercise bike !!! It's the best way to start the day ! Kick-starts the body and clears the brain ! I feel .... erm .... GOOD !

I personally do not think we will see them tour to this scale again.
Possible selected dates in Japan and Asia next year on the back of what is already booked but another long American and Euro tour would seem doubtful.
Every tour Brian seems a little less happy about the travel and toll it takes on himself. They are getting older and it must be a strain and if they are to consider going round again ( farewell type thingy ) then it would have to be done different to enable them to maintain energy and enthusiasm for the whole tour.
Hopefully enthusiastic crowds will carry them over the finish line for the next few weeks

Last tour? I think it's very likely.
I said during the N.A tour cracks were starting to show...it's becoming more obvious now. I just hope he doesn't fall ill or end up depressed again.

I am sure once he gets off the road and returns to saving the world and righting all wrongs in politics he will be a happier bunny
