Thoughts on Thor Arnold and Lee Nolan's eleven year friendship with Freddie

Agreed Squirelly,
Lee and I have decided to just ignore from now on. Noorie always presented herself to be honest and caring. It does not make
sense to me that she would make up this story...And with that, enough said. We will leave it as a mystery.

ignore Stop, I mean

OK Dustin,
I apologize if I made you uncomfortable and was singling you out as a "Stop" fan. As I knew you on the other
thread, you have always presented yourself as very open minded. I think I may have transferred some of my
anger at "stop" onto you. I am so sorry.

Correction of an earlier post: Lee's work week starts on Wednesday, not Tuesday...sorry Lee.

Oh good, it's all settled. In the spirit of moving on (and admittedly because i will use any excuse at all to post this picture of freddie because it cracks me up)


Cleanse the palate with this lovely photo of Mother. Lol enjoy.

*I don't remember if I posted it in the other thread but I'm hoping Lee and Thor will get a kick out of it if they haven't seen it *

Thanks Thor. It's all good

Hi Lee,

So what did you do after your "short-lived" theater career in the 70's? Did Freddie take an interest in your former musical endeavors? Do you still like to sing and play piano?

Thor and Lee,

Did Freddie ever solicit your feedback after the concerts you attended? Is there a concert moment that stands out..either because of something outrageous Freddie said or did, or maybe just the audience reaction to a particular song?

VILLIERS!!!!!!!

I JUST saw that photo on Pinterest. had NEVER seen it before and here it is........it defines "Camp". a favorite word of Freddie's,

Rainbow61

I sang in a club for a few summers, but left the grind of pursuing theatre in New York. After going to a TON of auditions and basically begging people to listen to 30 seconds of a song, which you think you do pretty well, as they eat, and talked, and giggled.........(thank GOD there were no cell phones back then)..........I decided I sorta kinda wanted to have a normal life. By normal I mean making money, and living life, and not leaving town every three months for some kind of touring. NOW.......that being said, those who are talented enough to make a REAL living out of a theater career, with an UBER talent have my envy. An UBER talent, I obviously wasn't. I did give it a go. NEVER would I sing or play the piano in front of Freddie....LOL.......what a woose I was. HA! My goal these days is being an UBER kind person. Much better use of my energies.

FIRST I find out that Freddie was Gay!

And THEN i found out he was a MASON! !!
(Alfred)



Good God .. i think i can sell this to the DAILY MAIL! What a secret life he led!

Now I've gotta go home and doctor up some Freddie/Masonic images...

This sounds like a job for Raymond Burr.... also a mason.

Speaking of Raymond Burr and celebrity types. Did Freddie ever encounter the guy? Did he ever meet Rob Halford of Judas Priest?

Rob continues to talk highly of Freddie. ..was even quoted when asked what's on his ipod....he said "Every Queen album"

Wow! Seriously? I am really very sorry I made my uncle post his childhood memories. Especially when he did not want to.
1. I have seen the Untold Story many times (naturally being a Freddie fan), so if I had made up my uncle's story, naturally, I would have stuck to those facts!!! I am not an idiot. These are the memories of somebody else, and you can either read them or not. It does not matter at all to anybody either way.
2. "Stop...', I had posted a story about my uncle on another thread (not Thior's) previously.
Thor and Lee, I thank you sincerely for your kindness and for sharing your memories with us.

Matt Z

that was very funny..............

RE: Rob..........I sounded just like him when I sang..............that was a joke.

Don't know if he and Freddie ever met or partied

Noorie I'm sorry you posted it here too since we caught you in a lie. I'm still waiting on those pictures or literally any proof at all that he knew Freddie. I can say my uncle knew Freddie. You say you posted about it in another thread but I haven't seen anything. Please send me the link and the proof he knew Freddie. Im also srill left wondering why when everyone was discussing Freddie at boarding school in the Thor thread you never mentioned your uncle. I find that off because you were very active in that conversation at that point. Why didn't it cross your mind to ever mention this uncle before? So you saw the untold story and still decided to make up things that don't match it? Weren't you the same person who said Freddie calling people dear and darling wasn't a gay thing but a parsi thing and everyone did it? And people there called you out too because again it's in the untold story. His teachers and friends were actually asked about it on camera and they all said it was odd and that nobody else did it. Your stories never seem to match proven facts.

Don't waste your breath telling me to go away. I'll continue posting if I please.

Hey norrie,
Even if I am the only one, I want to thank your Uncle profusely. Why bother making that stuff up...ridiculous!

^^^ I have been active on QZ for quite a few years now, and it is really because of a very few people like you that I do not post anything personal. But, Thor (and now Lee) have been infinitely kind in so many ways, that I overcame my reluctance to share somebody's memories with Freddie.
I am so sorry you feel the need to challenge everything and everybody. And I am not asking you to go away. You have the right to post here as often as you like.

Please scroll down. End of page 2. This was in August.

And now, I am done with this topic.

Oops Thor. Thank you. I did not realise you had posted as well. I was replying to 'Stop.... '
Thank you so much. Actually it was YOUR kindness to me that made me take an active role on your thread. Thanks for that. :)
