You are totally living out some Freddie fan fic and have totally lost touch with reality. People like Brian and Roger have firms that take care of crunching numbers, handling legal issues, doing the shipping of their gear and anything that goes into making sure the tour works. They wouldn't have time for that, nor do I think they are money hungry. They have put out statements about resellers selling for high prices, so no I don't think they have much to do with this at all. Their concentration is the end product on the stage. I think it is time for a major intervention for you as your hate knows no boundaries. I don't get how you can even think of blaming them for the ticket prices, they are what the market will bear and I think they are under priced considering what some other, less stellar performers charge for their tours. This is a stupid thing to hang around their necks and hate them for. Should I be upset because movies cost so much and hate on the actors and the people who sell the concessions because candy and drinks often cost more than the movie? Guess I should hate the candy and soft drink industry. Get a life and move on!

YOu are a real hopeless case. MAylor are the CEOs of QUeen touring ltd. Their financial statements are online. Deacon is no part of Queen touring ltd ( as some Glamtarts are claiming he is still looking after their finances). And what did you not understand about "reseller prices"? They are NOT reseller prices. They charge 350 Euro for a simple ticket. no other band charges that much (maybe the stones do almost equally). They are clearly cashing in on the success of the film that is why they doubled the prices. If you had a brain you would look in the forums how they got flamed for the prices and their greed. YOu really think they dont dictate the prices? How delusional can you get???
Still waiting for all those interviews as proof that Freddie would not cut it live and was only good in the studio. bring it on now please....

Freddie was a bad live singer due to health issues????? WTF??? Show me link of someone who was there , for example Ratty etc.

Freddie had nodules and had voice problems in the 80s. You know that.
He also was in many cases not able to sing live in the way he sang on the records. Because he sang very high on the records (he liked that), but couldn’t reproduce that night after night without exhausting his voice. It was great for a couple of nights, but not for a whole tour. He was a baritone, so his voice was naturally lower. That’s nothing to look down upon. It’s fact. And it’s a fact that Adam is able to sing the songs consistently, night after night. He’s a tenor and the songs are right there in his natural range.

And since YOU are asking for some prove:
Queen in New Zealand 1985. I think you can call being drunk a health issue. ;)

And Japan 1976: A drunk Freddie on BoRhap (I really like that version! It sounds great.)

I want to break free 1986: The voice doesn’t sound great or like the record.

I‘m a fan of Freddie, don’t get me wrong. But he did have his flaws, (as does Adam has his). You asked for prove, that’s why I posted the videos. It’s not for putting Freddie down. It’s to prove that Freddie wasn’t as consistent as a live singer as you seem to think.

I take Freddie drunk (which happened 2 nights in 13 years of shows) over a sober Lamebird anyday

The live version is even better than on record. Budapest was the best show vocally of the whole magic tour. Get a hearing aid mate

I agree that is was a great show. Although Wembley wasn‘t bad either. But Freddie’s voice cracks at some points in this vid. He’s almost shouting. Freddie was the best performer ever, but his singing was good, not brilliant. And his voice got worse with time.

Listen to anything from 1982-flawless and with power. Unlike Lamebird. He s lacking power

Why do you always feel the need to call Adam names and put him down? I was talking to you in a normal way. I can agree with you that Freddie had great times (talking about the voice). Most of the 70s stuff, but also some of the eighties.
And I can acknowledge that AND the fact that Adam is also a great, but different, singer. Even if you don’t feel the same, there is no need for your language.

Lamebird ist fitting cannot call him anything else. He is ruining my fave band. GIve you credit though that you are not that stubborn and annoying as the rest of your Glambert friends

Queen can’t be ruined. They are legendary. Especially Freddie as their front man.

And you still haven’t been to a live QAL show, runner in the weeds! I dare you to see this fabulous show and tell me that it sucks!

Stop it. Nobody attends a show, that they don’t want to. Your constant reminders are annoying.

Amen!

Back to the topic: Yesterday before the second concert in Seoul the queue was at least 50 meters long . 35 minutes before they started to sell. Crazy.
