i realise this topic may have been covered b4 but im goin 2 raise it again. bearing in mind QPR had the whole of the queen back catalogue to choose songs from do u wish there had been a few different songs. by the look of the setlist for the new dvd only i want it all the show must go on and these are the days were done from the three non toured albums. Would have loved to see innuendo,headlong,the miracle,breakthru, was it all worth it and heaven for everyone and possibly songs from earlier queen albums which seem under represented. do u think this will be addresses if and when they tour again?

I think they had enough songs from the un-toured era. IMO if they had done any more then other good songs from earlier periods would have been overlooked. And it was good to hear some songs that hadn't been performed live before, but I thought that I enjoyed the songs I hadn't even heard before more - SINT, and the PR tracks.
I can't see them keeping A Kind of Magic for the U.S. tour. I agree, they should look to other songs as well. These come to my mind as potential good PR songs:
Liar
White Man
Doing Alright
The Prophet Song
Let Me Entertain You
Need Your Loving Tonight

was the any of paul solo stuff on this tour or was it all free bad company

Yeah, but that was then...and this is NOW. and NOW USA Queen fans DO know and love the post 1984 stuff and love Innuendo, AKOM, I Want It All, Headlong, Breakthru, Princes Of The Universe, TSMGO, Heaven For Everyone, The Miracle, One Vision.
I want to hear this if they tour the USA as well as the 70's and early 80's stuff.
I think most 2005 USA era fans are big enough Queen fans to know and love the whole music catalog, and could care less about what wasn't popular or what didn't get radio airplay after the mid 1980's. That was the USA audience, THEN.
NOW....we USA Queen fans know better and want the whole kit and caboodle. Give us more credit for wanting to hear and appreciating everything by Queen.
I want them to add more material and mix it up BIG TIME!

Don't be silly. They will play whatever you want. They are playing to Queen fans not random fans.
Rodgers Must Go
Fuck off poodle... Is that all you can say??
If Paul needed to 'fuck off' then they wouldn't have sold out to countless numbers of audiences across Europe so far this tour. You NEED to realise this BPP.
Start to form a life for yourself... beyond Freddie (as much as we love him)... and maybe even go to a Q+PR gig... you never know... you might just enjoy it!

That might be why my radio station won't play anything past Under Pressure.
For a US tour, I think if they did drop Queen numbers they'd be far more likely to look to Paul's back catalogue. Bad Company were absolutely huge in the States so I think an inclusion of classic Rodgers anthems like "Ready For Love" or "Shooting Star" would go down a bomb in the States. Those coupled with the Queen hits US fans remember would guarantee a rousing reception.

i understand they have to play the hits but it wud be nice to hear some 89-95 stuff and earlier heavier stuff that would suit paul's voice. even a medley say of liar, great king rat, its late lap of the gods revisited? or other songs in a meedley any suggestions? ps brians permed poodle i didnt start this post to have another pointless endless discussion about paul rodgers. if u dnt like him do the following
1 dont buy the new cd
2 dont go and see them live
3 just listen to queen with freddie
and most importantly
4 don ttry and start arguments with people who can listen to queen and accept that its not the same without freddie, but remember thats kinda the point this is different and new and suurely more excitin than waitin for another greatest hits and the anthology. personally i cant wait to hear the show must go on and i want it all with paul, with roger singin radio gaga these are the days and the bo rhap with freddie and paul singin sounds great. if u dont like paul rodgers who cares?

i think it's got little chance of any FM songs making the US setlist - it'll be more BHM, RT and PR written songs wait n see
here's the song-writing from a typical Europe setlist
FM - 5 songs
BM - 9
RT - 4
JD - 2
PR - 6
I feel a riot about to begin...
