Don't worry, this is a pattern with Mike. He voices his opinions, then comes back when the shit has hit the fan and says, "Oh, it was a ruse all along! Boy, I sure did make you laugh! C'mon guys, why aren't you laughing?" When somebody points out that what he did wasn't funny but pathetic and childish, he becomes defensive, writes another "Fuck you all, I'm leaving" post, and comes back within the month to tell us he was really kidding, hey guys aren't I funny?

"I really could care less"

You mean, you "COULDN'T care less"? "I really could care less" isn't a term i'm familiar with & would suggest that youre quite concerned about something.

Oh Hell.. I MISSED YOU GUYS!! ahh.. home.. right where I left it.. be honest.. you didn't miss me did you.. Nope.. not a fat chance.. in fact I am sure you really don't want me back anyways.. so.. to make everyone happy.. I won't say I am leaving, but I won't say I am staying..

But I will say.. well.. nothing actually.. I said enough for one month.. I will go back inside Mikes head and let him alone for another month

My first day in public office in the good old USA.

First I'd tell the country to hi five that that idiot George War Mongering, One slice short of a loaf of Bread, W. Bush is outa here.

Then, Bo Rhap becomes the NEW National Anthem!

Then we put the Queen crest on the $100 Bill, get rid of that Benjamin crap!

Then, we declare a special Queen National Federal Holiday (and everyone in the nation gets a day off of work with pay!)

Then we stop trying to forgive the 3rd world debt, save the USA's money, lower taxes, and all the Queen fans here have more disposable cash to buy cool Queen stuff!

I think we've whored this topic out enough now.

Some of us feel that Queen isn't Queen unless Freddie Mercury is there, some of you feel that any group of people assembled with a heartbeat and a cock, holding a mike stand can be Queen...whatever.

As the new material with Wannabe Rodgers starts flowing through the theft of the friendly pirated internet sea's.... I think even the biggest whiner saying "Let them play" will be reluctant to say....

"Damn, this sucks, this ain't Queen."

You guys can pay $70.00 to hear the "Hair club for men" president Paul Rodgers versions of these songs... I'd rather grab Live Killers, or Live at Milton Keyes and go for a car drive.

Then, by all means, please do. Don't let anyone here hinder you...

Bri, Rog & Michael Jackson = Awesome frontman who would add an awesome tilt to some already immortal songs. His stage style and vocal prowess would take the songs to as close a dimension to freddie as we could get - his voice would be totally suited to TMLWKY, hell - he could sing ANY of the songs.
G
that would be crazy.

my two favourite acts out there together...

i fint it hard to imagine him doing any of his impromptu dancing to a queen song though? doing the moonwalk to Tie Your Mother Down, sidestepping to Bohemian Rhapsody, doing that leaning thing during Brian's solo...?

That's fine by me. That would be one less sourpuss bringing the energy level down.

The average age of the people on stage is about 62. There energy level will already be down.

When I saw Paul in 1997, "the voice" was hoarse and almost completely gone by the 5th song.

Actually it may be a decent show, by Tie Your Mother Down, PR will be un-audible, so then you will have Brian and Roger playing with just a few wannabe's.

If they come to my area, I may go see it.
It is my only chance to see Brian and Roger live.
Plus I can educate youngersters in the crowd at why their Queen cds at home sound so good, and this sounds so bad.

Another bonus is Paul was just about completely bald the last time I saw him, so seeing his beautiful chestnut brown weave in person will be a treat.

Paul Rodgers is like this re-occuring joke in my life.... to me, he is one of the most overated front men ever. (Ozzy may take 1st?) ....and somehow it seems I was see PR live. Whereas the Freddie's I never get to see.

Oh thats right... Freddie never did shows at county fairs, and shopping malls. That's why he was so much harder to see.
