Fenderek wasnt that dangerous!! Seiously it was great to catch up with a couple of fellow Q,zoners, (Fenderek, Headlong24 and his brother)and others who I cant remember their nicks, Thanks guys and girls! It makes it much better when your coming from afar and dont know many people going! Sorry I couldnt have a couple of beers after the gig guys, I passed out for 12 hours straight! ha ha! Enjoy the rest of the shows!

Sitting? Oh, I wondered what the seats were for...

Hi guys! Sorry I missed you! I got in early, and when wandering around the NEC Arena I ran into some nice fans and they sucked me into the queue...So I was in line for about seven hours! But I was in the front row in front of the catwalk...absolutely incredible!!!!! I missed seeing you, though, and afterwards went to the bar at the hotel and looked for people...Couldn't distinguish anyone, though. I hope you forgive me. Absolutely beautiful show. Still stunned...I've finally seen my heroes, and from about 10 feet away!

I'm still in Birmingham now, and will be back in the US tomorrow.

To make it up to you, if anyone needs to stay with me in Pittsburgh, should the band come here, you've got a place...

just to say i first saw queen at bingley hall 6.5.78 and seen them 18 times over the 27 years and i must say brian gets better with age,his solo was probably the best i have seen him do,he used about every technique he knows,loved the chinese torture and the white man intro on fbg,saw them in newcastle on tuesday and the light rig was moving into allsorts of positions,but that didnt happen at at the nec,but what a show anyway,got to the arena about 6.15 and stood outside and you could hear them rehearsing aobtd.

I find it really annoying when people point out slight technical errors or the odd missed word here or there!! That is the whole point of LIVE music and for me its part of the joy of LIVE music. I'm sorry but no bootleg or official live release can communicate the emmotion and pure pleasure I experienced last night at the NEC when I saw the band I have followed for 32 years. It was an Awesome gig in a lot of ways very different to the old days but in many ways just like the old days. For what its worth I really really do hope this is a new beginning - Thanks Guys

Just one slight thing that bugged me - Brian the Bingley Hall you played and the one where we all sang you'll never walk alone to you is in STAFFORD not Birmingham but hey whats 29.5 miles to such a well travelled Rock God
Shadow boxing with yourself just seems to get you no where!

Absolutely true...Nothing can capture that feeling of actually being there. Until recently, I never imagined I'd know what that feeling was like. Thanks to this new tour, now I do. No words can do it justice, but I'm just very, very grateful.

Headlong! Great to meet you and your bro. Hope London was fun. Tom: again, a pleasure. Were those Bloody Marys spicy or WHAT?! Greg: we missed you! Mark, Deb, Cathy, and Lisa! Email me! I feel Scotland calling to me!

It was a total blast. Great to meet you all, thanks so much to Cathy and Lisa for getting me going on the truly awful and awe inspiring combination of Red Bull and Vodka!

See everyone at Hyde Park? Yeah? Maybe Cologne? Might just be a thing . . . I hear the boys from Queen are going to be there!

I shouted that out to Brian (well he wouldn't have heard me anyway) when he said it! It annoyed me at the time but my sister was not impressed at my outburst!
