Lets steal Freddie's ashes and take John Deacon and Get Brian and John and DEMAND A PERFOMANCE
I'll start the car.
Cause he was the only straight singer left.
Here we go again...
Honestly, let them do what they want. It's there band, too - they worked hard for decades giving fans years of their life and music, can't we appreciate them for that and let them live the way they want to? Brian and Roger should be allowed to make their own decisions...Not to mention, a lot of us do support this tour and are glad to have a chance to see any incarnation of Queen! It doesn't make us any less of a fan or mean that we're destroying Freddie's memory...it's just Brian and Roger having fun under the name they chose. And as much as we all are fans, it's not our band, and it's not our decision. We don't own them. Let them make their own choices...[It's not Brian and Roger's band it was FREDDIE's
Queen 1991 RIP
The irony is why people think it is wrong to call themselves Queen. They are saying it's what's left of Queen and that it's a band that has the spirit of Queen, but through a new and different vocalist. The irony is that these people have a problem because "you can't replace Freddie. It isn't Queen without him."
First off, thank you Captain obvious.
Second, if you know he's dead, than you already know it's not Queen so it's not a misrepresentation.
Third, this isn't a band trying to make new music, it's a band trying to re-invent their old sound. If they made up another name, who would know that it's a Queen show with just a new singer.
How do we solve all this? How about calling it Queen + the new guys name? Gee, that makes since.
I get even more sick of the people that bitch about how they should have used George Michael. I would much rather hear a totally new vocalist do an original job than some imitation that is going to be sloppy seconds to Freddie's presence.
What's so great is that the true fans are the ones who should care and, from what I can tell, they are all smiling their asses off! Now if they had used Robbie Williams, I might be taking a different stance. Talk about dodging a bullet.
P.S. On that last note, I always thought Robbie Williams likely to be a hack, a pop creation with no real talent. What always made me give him some credit was that I heard he wrote that beautiful song, Millenium. The other day I watch You Only Live Twice, the Bond film. That pretty strings part that makes the song was totally lifted from the theme song of the film. It's more of a theft than Vanilla Ice stealing the bass line of Under Pressure.
50% of Queen aint Queen
I think this is pathetic. This is really not that difficult of a situation here:
If you like Queen+Rodgers, then go see them, and get some bootlegs if you'd like.
If you don't like them, then put on a Queen album and shut up. Stop wasting energy on negativity. Let people you disagree with have their fun. Is this what you do in the real world... at work? Someone makes a decision you don't like, and you feel the need to whine for five minutes about how your opinion is so much more valid than theirs?
Wake up, and grow up.
Stay home and listen to ADATR if that's what you'd like to do. In 58 days, I'll be at the Meadowlands, 50 feet away from Brian playing the opening lick to TYMD, watching the curtain fall, and having the best two hours of my life.
People who support this tour hold your heads in shame. You disgust me.

Is it not possible for you to practice some kind of tolerance? Is this the way you act in real life when someone disagrees with you? Either way, just the mere thought of the amount of time and energy you have spent on spamming this board, all essentially out of hatred and intolerance of other people's enjoyment, just completely baffles me.
I'm sorry about the topic everyone... but I really wanted to discuss it... I believe mine was first, I won't take it far like that jerk on the other forums... I was just wanting to discuss this in a civil way... I won't keep making up forums on the same topic over and over again like someone else
Dont' take it too much at heart, ILFM, it was mere talk....I thank you instead for having given me the chance to say publicly what I think of the whole matter
Why ?
Crazy little poodle you must have nothing to do man, watch a queen dvd or even better go see Queen+pr there great you no! lol
Poodle...okay leave my forum if you're going to be a jerk to everyone.. this is a civil discussion, and know one has to put anyone down just because they like Queen and PR
