Queen and PR hardly finished their first tour and they are already working on releasing their first concert album. Right? So why does it take twenty plus years to release a Queen album from the Hot Space tour? Why wait so long? Now we will wait another decade to see Hammersmith Campuchea show, and even more to see Houston, any of the Japanese or the Works tours. I will be fucking long dead before I see any of it. Why did Queen decided to issue a new album with PR? He might be a good performer, but I am interested only with Queen material with Freddie and John in it. What do you people think?

Two words: "cash" and "in".
But will it be a cash in? QP obivously hope so... but who'd really want to buy a CD or DVD with Paul Rodgers singing Queen songs? Its one thing going to the show... but who would repetedly want to watch Rodgers singing Queen hits? Not many... expect to find it in the January sales... thats all I'll say!

I agree with you - but the problem with releasing Queen live material is that it has to include certain songs to appeal to the average fan in the street.
Well, they're releasing a show a year, so with a bit of luck, Hammy '79 will be next, that's something!
The Sheffield isn't from QP so we're still getting something from QP.
Don't we get ANATO cd/dvd 30th anniversary release at the end of this year ?
Yeah. I think it will have unreleased tracks on it as well!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Live albums never sell well with the exception of Frampton Comes Alive and to a much lesser extent maybe Live Killers and Live Magic....I think part of the reason for this is to get Queen's music out there again...and personally I think it's great...people know it's not Freddie but if they want Freddie they can buy Live Killers....this tour is attracting new fans to Queen and for many of them Paul is just fine....personally I will enjoy every note....Paul's a great singer but what I love more is to hear every note in Brian's guitar solos and to hear new tracks like "Say It's Not True" and to actually hear live versions of "I Want It All" and "Show Must Go On" ....if you don't like it, don't buy it....but don't keep whining.....as other people actually like the fact that Brian and Roger (and Paul) are still making music and bringing Queen's music and legacy worldwide in 2005!
QUEEN ROCKS FOREVER!! THE SHOW MUST GO ON!

Live Killers will never be considered a best-selling live album, no matter how hard you try.
well, as queenrocks 91 says, is just like a new period of Queen, we must accept it, and whygiving thecontrary to them? its by farthe best music right now, its absurd not to buy it, what do you guys prefer? SYSTEM OF A DOWN? some reggaeton?...QUEEN ROCKS ,cheers
A new era of Queen? You must be joking!! Theres plenty of better bands out there today than "Queen & Paul Rodgers".
Well, here are some live discs that did well. Bruce Springsteen's Live 1975-85 outsold Frampton Comes Alive in the US as did Garth Brooks' Double Live. The two post-Roger Waters era Pink Floyd double live albums Delicate Sound of Thunder and Pulse each sold three million copies each! Deep Purple's Made in Japan sold well as did ELP's Welcome Back My Friends to the Show That Never Ends. KISS' Alive only went Gold and not Quadruple Platinum much to KISS' claims. Queen's Live Killers is Double Platinum in the US and Live at Wembley went Platinum as well here. The Who's Live at Leeds sold well as well.

You obviously didn't download the newest shows. Arnhem is simply in my top 10 of all time Queen bootlegs.
Wether you like Paul Rodgers or not they are doing a great job. And yeah they'r still the best.
