I truly hate arguing I think this would make Freddie so sad to see his band mates done this way. My only concern with any of this retiring age gentlemen is their health none of this shit is worth it . At the end of the day the touring the dam books nothing is worth someone’s health. I guess I’m a bitch today the people that really care know who Freddie’s friends and relationships were. They also know his true story I just think if you need to walk away for your own sanity and take care of you do it.Thanks Matt for the link.To bad things can’t be rolled back to 1980s when this legend was rocking and the fans were happy.

did it ever occur to your Brian-hating, Freddie-absorbed brain that, he might be doing if for reasons other than greed?
1. i think that for a musician - the performance is "it": job, vocation, art and the drive to continue living.
don't believe it? listen to "Guitar Man" by Bread, and "Spotlight Kid" by Rainbow.
2. he may, just be "banking some more money to ensure future generations of the May lineage never have to worry about money.
i doubt very much, you'll see any other perspective than your own jaded anti-Brian viewpoint. because, well frankly - you've proven (over 6+ years here) incapable of doing so.

But still you find any conceivable way possible to reply about Brian with something anti-Q+AL (this time it's touring). looks like you will never learn.

He should spend some time with Anita for a change as she never sees Brian.
Brian should slow down now he has had his warning sign and just because you have stents fitted does not mean he will be ok, because you can still have a heart attack.[/QUOTE]
Oh, you're back.
Still saying loads but not really saying anything. Your new role as, life coach, doctor and marriage councillor doesn't suit you. You lack the intelligence to be passing on such advice, as with life in general Gerry.

Brian wants to perform because he loves it, he loves the crowd and playing and making people happy. It is his art. We don’t tell artists to stop painting, or writers to stop writing, why must we tell Brian to stop performing? It is his life’s blood, and most likely stopping will kill his spirit and him much faster than staying on the stage. My guess is, he will continue, even if it gets to the point of just sitting with his guitar and playing on the stage. Everyone loves it when he does that on Love of My Life and 39, who cares if he does it for an entire concert? Let him do as he pleases!

My human zoo, I didn’t set this up for people to argue I don’t get why they are I was hoping they would pay their respects. Thanks for stoping by.As long as they argue I don’t have nothing further to say my health isn’t good and I do like to see positive things about him and upcoming events they do play their hearts out but if this is respect they get from Instagram from almost a fatal heart attack enjoying time time with the wife and grand babies is important too. Same for writers that give it their all.

And as far as writers I support only one book right now I don’t think they should ever stop writing just stay away from any of these threads that don’t show them respect. I support them since I started their thread and will never betray them because I think what Thor and Lee are doing is for the right reasons.I can’t say that is true for all that will and have written in the past everyone try and have a blessed weekend.

It’s true that the activity could cause death, but I am pretty sure he would rather die doing something he loves and being joyful, rather than sit back and wither away as an old man that can’t do anything. He could die tomorrow in an accident, or he could die even if he does sit there and doesn’t push his activity level. Moderate activity is much better for our physical health than sitting in a chair anyway, even following a heart attack patients are encouraged to gradually undertake and increase activity in order to keep themselves healthy. In any case, we should all leave it to Brian to decide what he is comfortable with, and what risks (if, indeed, performing is a risk) he feels he should take.

and you've only posted 9 times in a month!
if this place really is much better without us, then why are the four of you not really bothering to post? this is absolute proof that all four of you are trolls (FJupiter, Aristide, Weckw**th and you Gerry) - once you have no-one to pick on/attack, you've no purpose for living on here [sic].
btw - our new place is thriving:
2 months old, 700+ members (on average 600+ visit every day), 700+ threads and 7,000+ posts.

Tommy Cooper's "sudden death" was the result of a history of health conditions including alcoholism and a weight problem.
Brian May is generally fitter then Cooper was and indeed many others in his age group.
You said earlier he should slow down, stop touring, stop being greedy and spend more time with his wife. What gives you the right to make those judgments. Anita Dobson is an actress, like her husband she spends time away from home perusing her art.
There are many musicians in Brian May's age group who still tour. Did you join a Rolling Stones forum to say they should stop touring in the last few years, did you then voice the opinion that Jagger should stop after his heart op.
As usual your full of it.

Really?
I posted a link twice in the announce section for the unusual collection for those that cannot register to queenchat.net, but the mega link was changed both times.
How is that not censorship?
Also, I believe your permanent banning of mooghead was ham-fisted and premature.
However, I do agree with your banning of gerry.
mooghead is the only banning I find to be an overreaction thus far.
Have you banned anyone since mooghead?

Here’s some Brenski posts from July 2011. Obviously didn’t clear these with Bob.
“Brian, sadly, would be David Gates' archetypal "guitar man"....read the lyrics...you'll understand”
“you knew exactly WHAT i was referring to in the David Gates' song analogy....The cosmos Rocks, American Queen Idol, collaborations with 5ive, Blobbie Williams, McFly etc etc etc......the guitar man is clinging desperately to what's left of the spotlight “

lazy. you didn't even go to the actual post. you went to the reply.
like the moron you are, you take everything out of context.
you deliberately avoided using the actual post because that backs up my point about Brian being driven by the need to perform. there's no actual criticism of Brian there - if you read properly - it was about the different directions of Freddie/John as opposed to Brian's preference for playing classic rock.
yet again you prove what a class-A troll you are. and 100% my own personal stalker; you don;t post here for weeks at a time, but then when you do - it's to seek me out. very flattering, but creepy...i must really get under your skin.
- fortunately our new forum has a closed door policy to your like.
for the benefit of the jury here's the actual post:
[i][color=blue]Brian, sadly, would be David Gates' archetypal "guitar man"....read the lyrics...you'll understand[/i][/color]
[i][color=green] stand by my comments Roger would be living the |RnR lifestyle and possibly on his third liver by now.....doing springsteen-tribute-soundalike tunes
Brian would be "Gates' Guitar man"
Then the lights begin to flicker and the sound is getting dim
The voice begins to falter and the crowds are getting thin
But he never seems to notice he's just got to find
Another place to play, Anyway Got to play, anyway Got to play[/i][/color]

mooghead can return - but only on the basis he agrees not to repeat that sh*t. he has opted not to, so he stays out. his choice.
yes, a spam bot (or similar) who posted several links to pharmaceutical products. global banning works nicely.

Brenski -
Can you please respond to the above (and below)?
There are three people in the following thread that cannot download "The Unusual Anthology", with at least one of the three unable to register at queenchat.net. One of the three was a first time poster.
Trying to be helpful, I provided the link twice, but each time the mega.nz link on queenchat.net was changed. Why?
Why is the queenchat.net sharing section hidden to those who cannot register?
It seems to me that hiding the queenchat.net sharing section is antithical to the spirit of sharing, and prevents some people from listening to excellent music like the "The Unusual Anthology",
