being in the chart on 11th is better than not being there

That's right. It shows me just more that they're still great.
In all honesty I really believe Brian, Roger and Paul Rodgers do not honestly care if the album climbs the charts or not. They went on tour to prove to their fans and to themselves that they still can DO IT! Good for them!
It was must have been very difficult for them without Freddie but they have no reason to despair even if the CD is a "flop".
Who gives a toss if they don't have a top 40 hit, they way pop music is today who in their right mind would want to go that route.
Please!
Credit should be given for even the attempt which took almost 20 years to accomplish and they should still be proud that they sold out most of their European shows.
Hats off, chaps! Well, done!
Cheers,
David

yes yes Well done to Brian Roger and paul and the rest of the band and their crew for all their hard work
I am sure they dont care what other people think the most thing that matters is they did it they filled up their show they ROCK and they did it brillant and to those who havent seen the show dont make silly comment about how poor they was unless you have seen it lol :)

How can they retire? This is not their job, it's their hobby.
Okay ROTC live CD looks like it has flopped (as I predicted and so will the DVD). Is it time Brian and Roger took the hint and retired ?
Fair enough they managed to sell out shows with PR but they are not a supergroup and did not win over a good majority of Queen fans.
Both of them look old and silly on stage now (as even Freddie would have)
The best thing they could do for the music business now is to write some good tunes whilst sitting at home watching Richard & Judy.
Let`s hope that when you get to their age people don`t think the same about you!
Take care

LIZAWITHAZ (not Lisa with an S!) I love your posts. That big HELLO DARLINGS! always makes me laugh.
I don't think they should retire, but they should not be calling this group "Queen" + PR.
I ain't no Playboy centerfold and this group
ain't Queen.

I'm In Love With My Car is quite unbelievable.
When Brian says "ladies and gentlemen Mr Roger Taylor" I always almost lose control of my car applauding!
All this stuff about retiring gracefully is bollox. I dare say if Freddie was still alive and the AIDS tragedy hadn't happened BPP would have found some way to slag Freddie off.

I don't support the Queen + Paul Rodgers thing in general as some of you know.
But for goodness sakes let it go !!! It's happening....deal with it !!

Why don't you retire gracefully?
Queen are not winning any new fans - because they've been out of the loop for too long...people, tastes and trends change, evlove and move on
If Freddie was still alive and they'd had an eight-year-hiatus then Queen would still fail...once you let the fans go - they are gone for good - i was one of queen's biggest fans - from 1974 til 1993 - i saw the live five times, had hundreds of rare records/cds....but after this time - ANY QUEEN lineup (incl original) would struggle to gain more than idle curiosity from me....
Take the Stones...not as talented as queen...but they kept plugging away...album-tour-album-tour every couple/three years...so the fans don't forget and (more importantly)they bring new fans with them...the fan base grows and so everyone is happy...
queen stopped touring (86), making albums (95) making singles (98) - who the f**k is going to bother to remember them in the big-wide world after that time????....so much happens and people find new bands to fill the gap...f-f-s , they could put Jesus Christ as lead singer and they'd still struggle for popularity and commercial success after a gap of this magnitude..
BPP - shut the f*ck up - you are an ignorant cr*t*n...who bases everything on the same pointless unthoughout, ill-considered-biased argument without really considering the reasons for the 'outcome'

I don't think so! At the moment I've not bought it, but I'll buy it in november with the DVD!
I think Roger & Brian still rock as 30 years ago!

I don't thimk bri and rog should step down from public life, but they should be more selective when choosing people to tour with...I am convinced they could do without paul rodgers...bri and rog have amazing voices to tour on their own...and brain and taste enough to write new songs
