I'm really getting the impression that John was actually had huge respect and admiration for Freddie and that he feels that Roger and Brian are now disrespecting that legacy and the name Queen for that matter. Of course they would argue differently but there are a number of Queen fans who would agree with John.

I do agree with John. I think Brian & Roger still have interesting things to do, but they have mistaken the way to do them. I think they are not using properly what remains from Queen.
In his place differently from brian and rog.
Stringfellows or Spearmint Rhino
Its really wierd becasue my godd friend Chris Cook recently won a competition to do a workshop with Brian May and Roger Taylor. in Wales forgot the name of the place..
Anyway Brian May knocked on his door late one evening and said
"Hey do you fancy coming out for adrink.. I've tried everyone else but they're all fast asleep."
So he had a quiet drink in a Welsh AT 11:30 at night with Brain May!! Chris asked him about John deacon and Brian said
"Yeah well me and Roger call him all the time.. he answers and he talks to us but when we go over he doenst answer the door.."

John flirted briefly with a solo career in 1986, when he setup the group, 'The Immortals' with Robert Ahwai and Lenny Zakatek. they recorded 'No Turning Back' and released it as a single in 1986, and the song was used in the film 'Biggles'. John also appears as a cameo in the film.
Between 1986 and 1997 John again worked with Queen, completing 'The Miracle' and 'Innuendo' albums, assisting with 'Made in Heaven' and the recording of the Queen single 'No One But You' in 1997 and did assist in preliminary work on the 'We Will Rock You' stage show.
John has now officially retired from the music business but does endorse the new tour, but did not wish to be part of it. John also checks-up with the Queen fan clubs to keep in touch with the fans.

Imagine he did die though seriously, would it be like on the news or would we just never know. presumably Brian may give it a passing mention on the Soapbox somewhere between talking about Astro Physics and We Will Rock You perhaps...
In all seriousness, there are a few of us lucky ones who do actually know where he is right now. Well not right now, I mean he could be on holiday for all I know! But as in his London address. He does still live in London with his family and by all accounts he has a perfectly normal life away from the stalking public like me :-)

Hmm yes Innuendo, Roger showing that he can actually write decent songs when he tries!
John is still living in London, in a quiet road in Putney with his family. He did not say anything of the sort about Queen and Paul Rodgers, he does not want to be part of it simply because he is retired, yet he endorsed the tour wholeheartedly. I'm not just full of it either, this information comes from a very reliable source. In fact it was Peter Freestone and he would know.
