which tunes should be dropped, which should be addded

I think Brian's solo lasts way too long so Queen plays less songs but I think that Brian does that so that Paul and Roger, especially Roger, take a rest.

But get rid of "I Want To Break Free" ? No...it's a John song and playing no Freddie or John songs wouldn't be like a Queen show I think. A Brian-Roger-Paul show would attract me, but much less. And besides that, the crowd LOVES that one so much, that they sing louder than Paul.

And about "Love Of My Life", I don't think it's a good idea since it is the song that Freddie used to sing with the crowd and sometimes, even the crowd sang alone. And besides that, I find it really emotional that 14 years after his death, that Brian May stills introduces the song like he's always done, as "we're doing this one for Freddie, alright ?" Brian loved, and still loves Freddie Mercury. I think that Brian feels Freddie's presence when he sings this one. Maybe he feels Freddie's helping him sing this one. May sound silly to many, but I think that must be the way Brian sees it.

These 2 songs are important parts of the show as well as Brian's solo I know, but that part's too long.

But an original idea is that Paul Rodgers could sing "Under Pressure" with Freddie Mercury on screen. Paul would sing David Bowie's vocals. That could work.

Dan.

supose you could cut the intro to one vision and play it as the end part of a melody but play the full song that would be good. or play it at the end of brians solo with the intro cut off.

Drop:
track13/Emenem
Reachin Out
IWTBF
Seagull
Last Horizon

Add:
Innuendo (taped as intro, or played live .. I don't really care)
One Vision
Now I'm Here
Headlong
Heaven For Everyone

You're all bloody mad. Fat Bottomed Girls is one of the highlights. As is I'm In Love With My Car and These Are The Days Of Our Lives. And they cannot drop IWTBF. The audience love it. They sing basically the whole song instead of Paul.

I would drop A Kind Of Magic because I dont think it suits Paul, Reachin' Out, Last Horizon and that hour long (seemingly) Track 13 from MIH.

My realistic Setlist would be

- Its A Beautiful Day (tape)
- Tie Your Mother Down (Paul on vocals)
- Can't Get Enough Of Your Love (Paul on vocals)
- I Want It All (Paul and Brian on vocals)
- I Want To Break Free (Paul/Crowd on vocals)
- Little Bit Of Love (Paul on vocals)
- Fat Bottomed Girls (Paul on vocals)
- Spread Your Wings (Paul on vocals. Not likely but I think it would suit Pauls voice)
- Seagull (Paul on vocals)


- '39 (Brian on vocals. With bass and drum like olden days. Sounds better!)
- Love Of My Life (Crowd On Vocals!!)
- Guitar Solo (abit shorter though)

- Now Im Here (Paul on vocals)
- Hammer To Fall (fast) (Paul on vocals)
- These Are The Days Of Our Lives (Roger on vocals)
- Radio Ga Ga (Roger on vocals, but please hire a drummer for the song. PLEASE!)
- Its Late {abit unrealistic but there you go} (Paul on vocals)
- Under Pressure (Freddie and Paul on vocals)
- I'm In Love With My Car (Roger on vocals)
- Feel Like Makin' Love (Paul on vocals)
- Crazy Little Thing Called Love (Paul on vocals)
- Bohemian Rhapsody (Freddie and Paul on vocals)
- The Show Must Go On (Paul on vocals)


- Sheer Heart Attack (Paul on vocals)
- All Right Now (Paul on vocals)
- We Will Rock You (Paul on vocals)
- We Are The Champions (Paul on vocals)
- God Save The Queen

I'm really looking forward to hearing Brian's solos live - if they get cut by the time I get to the Wembley show I'm going to blame you lot!

I doubt they will be cut. He enjoys playing them and alot of people enjoy hearing them. I just think he could do it in 5 or 6 mins rather than 15. But thats just me.

Jona1, you're really crazy if you think they should drop hits like break free, magic, days and gaga.That songs are just fantastic!
But i agree with you they should add breakthru, headlong and innuendo

And play for 5 hours, right?
To add something you have to drop something as well...

I've never had any time for Brian's solo.

If he'd like to do a guitar solo, how about an instrumental of Keep Yourself Alive running straight into Liar (and I'm sure the fans would sing along!)
