Re : 'Dog With A bone' - Believe this was actually called 'Goodtimes' by the band. The version played at the convention in the 80's (haven't checked but my money would be on 88) had band messages in the middle of it referring to hoping everyone was having a goodtime - who knows if it was a recycled song or not.
And what you're doing for your theatre group is very nice work too, but not comparable to the job QP or Brian has to do.
I can't say I'm doing anywhere near as good a job as QP. But that's not the point. It's what the work I'm doing represents. It's the same basic idea shown by QP, except on a smaller more humble scale. I am just one guy doing many jobs.
It is simply the idea that has been criticised by fans. I was just wondering if I'd be seen the same way. I'd find that very interesting to find that out.
Peace,
Adam.
I think the difference between your projects and QP's is that you're doing it for a select group of people, whereas QP's base is more broad - therefore, they have to satisfy everyone. However, they're not setting out to please the fans who have been with them since the very beginning - they're designing their products for the market, which may commercially be very good, but that angers the die-hards who want it all.
Any regular Joe off the street can buy a Greatest Hits album and be satisfied, but I'd be extremely surprised if a first-time fan bought an anthology project as his first release from any group.
So while your project may be on level with QP's projects, yours is more isolated - and, therefore, the people who buy it will be delighted at the result, but if you were to start selling it to the general public, it'd be a far different story.

Yes but the things Brian has to work on are Queen records, records in which he himself played a large part creating them , so in that way it is not quite comparable.
And you're not playing in the actual theatre group I presume?
Anyway It is not my intention to hurt your feelings.

EVH, look at Lester's answer.
And yes, I am part of the group that features on the dvd.
Peace,

I forgot to add that the inspiration behind "My Fairy King", comes from Robert Browning's epic poem "The Pied Piper".
Here are the lyrics to "My Fairy King".
In the land where horses born with eagle wings
And honey bees have lost their stings
There's singing forever
Lions den with fallow deer
And rivers made from wines so clear
Flow on and on forever
Dragons fly like sparrows thru' the air
And baby lambs where Samson dares
To go on on on on on on
My fairy king can see things
He rules the air and turns the tides
That are not there for you and me
Oooh yeah he guides the winds
My fairy king can do right and nothing wrong
Then came man to savage in the night
To run like thieves and to kill like knives
To take away the power from the magic hand
To bring about the ruin of the promised land
They turn the milk into sour
Like the blue in the blood of my veins
Why can't you see it
Fire burning in hell with the cry of screaming rain
Son of heaven set me free and let me go
Sea turn dry no salt from sand
Seasons fly no helping hand
Teeth don't shine like pearls for poor man's eyes
Someone someone just drained the colour from my wings
Broken my fairy circle ring
And shamed the king in all his pride
Changed the wings and wronged the tides
Mother mercury mercury
Look what they've done to me
I cannot run I cannot hide

230 And when all were in to the very last,
231 The door in the mountain-side shut fast.
232 Did I say, all? No! One was lame,
233 And could not dance the whole of the way;
234 And in after years, if you would blame
235 His sadness, he was used to say, --
236 ``It's dull in our town since my playmates left!
237 ``I can't forget that I'm bereft
238 ``Of all the pleasant sights they see,
239 ``Which the Piper also promised me.
240 ``For he led us, he said, to a joyous land,
241 ``Joining the town and just at hand,
242 ``Where waters gushed and fruit-trees grew,
243 ``And flowers put forth a fairer hue,
244 ``And everything was strange and new;
245 ``The sparrows were brighter than peacocks here,
246 ``And their dogs outran our fallow deer,
247 ``And honey-bees had lost their stings,
248 ``And horses were born with eagles' wings;
249 ``And just as I became assured
250 ``My lame foot would be speedily cured,
251 ``The music stopped and I stood still,
252 ``And found myself outside the hill,
253 ``Left alone against my will,
254 ``To go now limping as before,
255 ``And never hear of that country more!''

Nope I haven't seen them on this tour, but I've heard some boots from this tour and they still rock for sure, especially Eddie.
Eddie is a living guitar legend, he introduced the whole fingertapping thing, and all the others who came after him like Vai and Satch are just rip offs.
John, I am not sure, but is there no any connections between 'The Night Come Down' line 'Lucy was high' and the Beatles' song 'Lucy in the sky with diamonds'? I always thought it was.
The Hero: "The demo of Polar Bear (Smile cover) with Freddie on vocals. Was this recorded during the same sessions as Mad the Swine?"
The exact answer is that I do not know. I can tell you the period they come from, and that they do share a collective history - but we have already discussed that here.
As to the actual dates and recording sequences - I don't know.
Sorry.

According to my knowledge, Polar Bear is from much earlier than Mad The Swine. MtS is 71/72, while PB is from 70. It has Barry Mitchell on bass.
Sir GH: Polar Bear is from much earlier than Mad The Swine. MtS is 71/72, while PB is from 70. It has Barry Mitchell on bass.
Actually, that is NOT the case. Barry Mitchell NEVER made any Queen studio recordings. As far as Queen studio work is concerned it was ALWAYS - Mercury, May, Deacon, Taylor. Below is the chronology which we do know...
Queen: Unreleased De Lane Lea Demo Tape, Sept/October 1971 – February 1972.
The Eponymous Queen album was recorded June – Nov 1972. Released 13th July 1973.
Queen: BBC Radio Session, 5th February 1973 – Queen At The Beeb
The Eponymous Queen album - released 13th July 1973.
Queen: Unreleased BBC Radio Session, 25th July 1973 – Freddie’s Boys At The Beeb
Queen: BBC Radio Session, 3rd December 1973 – Queen At The Beeb
Notice that the first BBC Radio Session, 5th February 1973 – Queen At The Beeb was broadcast a full five months before the debut album was released.
Only five tracks were cut at De Lane Lea, Therefore we know that BOTH "Polar Bear" and "Mad The Swine" were recorded at Trident between June – Nov 1972. I thought The Hero's question: "The demo of Polar Bear... Was this recorded during the same sessions as Mad the Swine?" demanded a more precise answer.
Generally - Yes it was, both were recorded between June – Nov 1972.
Specifically - (ie a more precise date of session and order - I do not know).

How do you know there were no recording sessions of any kind before De Lane Lea?
