The easiest way to make you all jealous...I attented the concert!!

"Oh dear what a very sad person you are. I wish you guys would kick ya Asses out of the past!"

Not sad at all, quite content in fact.

I'm as jealous as one can be :)
Lucky girl!

Contented LOL I guess we are each entitled to our own opinion after all music is a very personal thing. I find it irratating tho when people slag off someone for trying good or bad just because it doesn't appeal to them. I hate pop idol but wouldn't slag off the entrants because at least they've got the balls to get up their and have a go. brian & Roger don't need to do this for any other reason than they want to so good luck to them I say.

Yes, let us not forget why they are doing this! It's all for a very good cause. And I don't care about Happy-Day's comment - why don't you go and do a couple of riffs on the guitar on stage in front of 3 billion people and get them to applaud? I salute Roger Taylor and Brian May!!!

Jacklyn, try to ignore some of the guys on here, they say they are not jealous but really they are. I saw Queen 11 times in their peak, i also attended the Freddie Mercury tribute concert at Wembley, but i wish i could have been in South Africa. Not jealous, not much.

I think the problem is in the phrasing.

Jacklyn is rightly chuffed that something spectacular happened in her back yard, but her EXPECTATION that everyone else should or would be jealous, when seen on a screen, COULD look like arrogance, which brings out the fighting talk in those of us old and cynical to remember when Queen were a four piece.

This is not to blame anybody, just to explain. If the word jealous had not appeared, this thread would be full of people being happy for Capt Jack.

One point of order "the world knows it"??? Most of the posts on here this week are complaining that the media are ignoring Queen's bit, editing it out, putting Britney on instead etc. The only people who could think that Queen rocked are those who saw the webcast or watched the ZDF recording. And not all of them will agree that "Queen rocked".

I wonder if they have the same discussions on the Who forum or the Rolling Stones forum both are big name bands who have lost 2 original members through death or retirement

Well said Hangman

Okay. I see what you are saying here! Please accept my humblest apologies everyone, I meant absolutely no disrespect and did not want to sound arrogant! I was simply ecstatic to be able to see this concert - believe me it never happens here! I am a musician myself, have been playing the guitar for 19 years and I know the blood, sweat and tears that go into what Mr. May does with so much ease. I respect anyone who can do that. So, please accept my apologies all, and know that I only mean well!

Jacklyn, did you receive my email?

You missed my smile at the end of my sentence, which ment my comment was light hearted.

"Jacklyn, try to ignore some of the guys on here, they say they are not jealous but really they are."

Speak for yourself - Jealousy is a wasted emotion. Be content with waht you've got, I always say. :-)

Actually, wstussyb, I didn't miss the smile! That is why I replied with one, if you look carefully! Look, I meant no harm with any of my posts. I am a musician and appreciate any music. And it was amazing to be able to see these two for the first time ever in my life. Hopefully it won't be the last time either! So, please do not be jealous - be happy!!!

i've seen brian and roger at the pavarotti and friends but i'm jealousy to miss another opportunity to see them =)))

Hey, I want to be jealous! Can I? :D
