Brian & Roger could easily have done something as a pair or go solo again and do something more productive than performing the Queen back catalogue with a pretty boy.[/QUOTE]
As I said before, Brian and Roger can only sing a few of their songs now, not many of them really. So that is why they do it. And because people have been enjoying it and going to see them.

I agree, they certainly wouldn't be able to sustain a full show night after night on a tour and aside from that it's obvious they're having fun together and people still want to see them.
Brian & Roger did ok with there solo tours night after night and they should find it easier been together sharing solo material and Queen material.

How long ago was that though?
Dont matter how long ago it was they are multi talented musicians and can handle the load.

They both struggle a bit with the singing, of course they can still play great no question but doing two hour + shows singing when you're 70 is hard going and aside from that it's not what they want, they're loving doing these big productions.
They can't handle it. Rather, Roger can't handle it. Brian *might* be okay, but not on a long tour - note that he had been taking it easier for a while with Kerry Ellis. Roger is fucked. I reckon (i.e I have a hunch, not fact) he uses oxygen tanks throughout shows like Meat Loaf did - and remember that Rufus lightened the load for a while too. Singing wise, voices are getting older and they ain't as fit.
Peter Hince said Roger took hits on oxygen back in the day. Strange.

Are you fucken brain dead? Do you think they are still that age! Sheesh!
Brian and Roger can sing full concerts. Look at Frankie Valley... 84 years old! And Chuck Berry was touring until the year before he died in his mid-90’s! I know Roger and Brian aren’t as experienced singing as much as them, but they’ve got enough of it. I love the idea of them doing new solo albums and touring. I’d go see them! I’m too embarrassed to see them tour with Adam Lambert, I honestly can’t stand that man’s voice.
But the only way they could do it would be solo stuff and the odd Queen song. Their voices can't handle a lot of the Queen catalogue anymore and a lot of them they couldn't anyway.
Do solo!
I'd rather them do solo stuff than as Queen.
Can anyone name a rock star that enjoys the Queen + Adam collaboration?

I can name a few who've been to see the show and some who've posted vids about it afterwards.
Jeff Scott Soto
Meatloaf
Dee Snider
Alice Cooper
Joe Elliot & Rick Savage - Rick actually wore a QAL T shirt on their recent gigs.
Can't remember everyone but there were several in Vegas who posted about it on Twitter.
