I think that the Pope was a good person but it doesn't mean that i have to leave one of my dreams (queen concert).The concert in rome means to me the first positive thing in my life after 2 years that i wish i could totally forget now.I was waiting this show like a new beginning, a new start to take the strenght to make order in my life.
The life on the earth goes one, there are a lot of good people that die every day, children that lose the right to live a real life in a few days, and nobody knows of them.
Life must go on.If you aren't agree sell the tickets and let other people to attend the show.
But i'm quite sure that you will attend the shows as well if they will be confirmeed!!!!!!!!!

According to the Brian's site and the barleyarts site, Queen are decided to go on with their shows.

However, according to an important newspaper (http://www.repubblica.it/2005/d/sezioni/esteri/papa9/pellegrini/pellegrini.html) the Palalottomatica will be at disposal of the pilgrims:

[A disposizione dei fedeli saranno anche il Palalottomatica e il palazzetto dello sport, la Fiera di Roma, il palazzo dei congressi e diverse strutture dell'Ente Eur]

So, I really don't see how they can play in Rome tomorrow.

THE SHOW MUST GO ON....if Queen can play with Freddie gone, then playing with the pope gone shouldn't be a problem !
With the whole world press being there, better and more free publicity they couldn't wish for!
If Queen dedicate the show to the pope, then they will certainly have the sympathy of millions all over the globe !
Heaven for everyone , all gods people, in the lap of the gods, those songs could be played now!
lifelong loyal and dedicated Queenfan.

How can we know if the concert will be done?

Bas, the problem is not playing All God's People rather than Fat Bottomed Girls.
The problem is, they don't seem to have a place where to play tomorrow in Rome in the first place!

It's rather disturbing that we can't still have sure information about the tomorrow gig. If Palalottomatica really will be available to pilgrims, the band/barleyarts should know by now, and they should inform the fans that by now are ready to go to Rome.

Italy is the country where you never know what is gonna happen the next day ;)

for example saturday at 1.36pm a communicatoin from the italian Sport Federation announced that no games had to be played this weekend....too bad that when radios some minutes later talked about it i was already arrived in the town where i should have made my football match....couldn't they give the communication in the morning??!?!?!

ahem...this is italy my friends :|

I received an email form the Italian FC:

WWRY News 3/4/2005

"Sia la Barley Arts, che il management dei Queen hanno confermato definitivamente i quattro concerti dei Queen+PR, incluso quello di domani a Roma.
Sono del tutto infondate le voci di un sequestro del Palalottomatica per ospitare le migliaia di pellegrini che arriveranno a Roma nelle prossime ore. All'interno il palco é già in allestimento ed abbiamo parlato poco fa con Elena, responsabile stampa della Barley.

A presto


WWRY Team"

The concert is confirmed.
That time will come, one day you'll see that i'll be dead and you will laugh!

CONCERTO QUEEN, BERTOLASO: PESSIMA SCELTA NON SPOSTARLO
"La decisione di non spostare il concerto dei Queen in programma per questa sera a Roma e' stata una scelta di pessimo gusto". Lo ha detto il Capo della Protezione Civile Guido Bertolaso. "Ho fatto di tutto per far sospendere o posticipare la manifestazione, ancora sto cercando di farlo e spero che prevalga l'intelligenza di chi ha organizzato questo avvenimento. Siccome e' un avvenimento privato, io non ho la facolta' di bloccarlo a meno che non vi siano ragioni di ordine pubblico. Sto discutendo con le autorita' competenti per risolvere questo problema. Se non si dovesse trovare una soluzione auspicabile, se posso esprimere il mio pensiero, si facciano pure il loro concerto e spero che non ci vada nessuno.

"The decision not to move the Queen concert programmed tonight in Rome has been a choice of awful taste" said the Chief of "Protezione Civile", Guido Bertolaso. "I did everything I could to have it suspended or postponed, and I'm still trying to do so, and I hope in the end the reason will prevail. Since it is a private happening, I can't block it, if not for reasons of public order. I'm discussing with the authorities trying to solve this problem. Should no solution be found, if I can express myself, they can go on with their gig, and I hope nobody will go".


So far my [poor] translation.
So, either way, Queen reputation will not exit very well from all this. I supposed they could not get away with that so easily...

Guido has more sour grapes than Poodlehead.
