Why don't I just be made the next Pope? I'll preach Pokemon, Queen, and Inu Yasha to the whole world :P
(Sorry. I know it's a bad time to make that joke, but I just had to say that)
ED: I have been on local TV a few times according to my friends. These are usually because of special events that I participated in. (eg. apparently some things I said to 4 of the candidates for Downtown Edmonton, for last year's provincial election in Alberta, was broadcasted on Shaw TV without my knowledge or permission...not that I minded).
I don't own any of these footages though, which sucks. And I've never seen myself on TV either too those times, which also sucks.
"What would you suggest they do then?"

As long as you promise to Pimp out the Popemobile, you have my vote!
They actually LET YOU on TV? On Purpose? About Politics? Yet another sign of the impending Apocolypse, which, by now, is probably scheduled immediately.......
It's a sad situation all around. It's difficult to put the momentum of the tour on hold and it be difficult to re-schedule--I think they will do some of the shows next week unless (as Jim Beach pointed out) the Italian Government forbids any type of entertainment during the week.
My heart goes out to all of you who have tickets for these shows.

Hello!
Just a quick message to say what is the real point about the Italian Government and the words of Jim Beach. We live in a democratic place here, so there is no way for a Government to stop any entertaiment. The point is that Rome is waiting for something like 2 millions of pilgrims from all over the world. Being one of the most civil Countries, we have to give support and help for these pilgrims and news agencies said that the sport-palaces around the City will be used to give hospitality to these people. Amongst the other palaces has been done the name of the Palalottomatica (ex-PalaEUR) that is the place where Queen+ P.R. should play.
At this point, the problem is not the three days of National mourning that starts from today and goes up to Tuesday (plus a further day the day of the funerals), as this doesn't affect the private activities. The real problem is the use that the Government will do of the Palalottomatica. This is going to be discussed in this moment as the Ministries have a council about that at 9:00 AM today.
I live in Sicily and have payed EUR 148,00 for the airplane ticket for Rome and around EUR 80,00 for the ticket of the concert. I will feel very sad to lose either the concert either the money of the travel. Maybe the next time that Brian and Roger will plan to play here in Italy they will try to go to play in the South as well the Centre-North.
Roger did sold-out concerts here in Palermo, Catania and Naples back in the 1995. Queen+ P.R. didn't do the sold-out in Florence and Pesaro. This meant something.

Where can I find some news about the gig in Rome?I'm from napoli and I must buy Train's ticket for Rome!
(Sorry for my english;I know it is horrible)

ciao Ammy,
I advise you to wait until we will have more information about what is going to happen. At the moment nobody knows for sure.
After all the gig is tomorrow night and Napoli is only a couple of hours of train from Rome...
However, I do believe the Rome date will be postponed (or cancelled), so don't buy any tickets yet.
Roman authorities have now too many things to organize, to handle the arrival of 2 million pilgrims, to worry about an (a bit inopportune) rock concert.
Besides, Palalottomatica is very likely to be used to host pilgrims.
After all, Queen themselves would look insensitive if they played tomorrow and in Rome.
However, I may be wrong: the barleyarts site reports the news of the Pope's death but still confirms all the dates. Maybe the reasons of the $$$ will triumph once again...

It's sad that the Pope died and I know the council in Rome will have heaps of problems with all the millions of incoming people but - is it really possible in democracy to ban a rock concert and cancel an agreement about hiring the venue etc.??? I refuse to believe that.
the organizer of the italian gigs has just said a few minutes ago that in this sad moment for the death of the pope,the tour will normally go on,so the concert are officielly confirmed,don't believe to other things!
You can finde the communication here: www.barleyarts.com

i think that there will be a press-conference today in Roma by Queen to present the shows and to speak about the situation.We have to wait their decision.This evening we will know if tomorrow the concerts will done or not.
All is confirmed,queen managment has just comunicated to the italian fan club that the concert will be done
I don't believe to anything until i see Brian sayng that the concert will be done.
The point is:
a rock concert is NOTHING compared to this fact. Being catholic or not doesn't matter, Karol Woityla has been a very important man of the modern times and today the whole world pays tribute to him: everywhere tv, newspapers, radio, agencies are talking about him, giving him credit for what he's done. I'm sorry for all the disappointed people, I'm sorry for those who may lose some money on it, but I have to say that even money and even Queen are on a second floor for me, now.
About the possible delete of the Rome gig: people who complain about it simply can't understand what's gonna happen in Rome in the next days: milions people are getting there and it's gonna be a mess. Even if the concert will be finally held, just don't think it will be everything easy, travelling to, in and from Rome will be very difficult for days.
This is about the "Queen related" aspects of the fact. About the specific death of the chief of the Church, it's up to everyone's soul though I feel very disgusted by some posts I've read here: some of you have really no respect and no intelligence, shame on you.

I agree with Hangman: have some respect, this Pope was a Saint
