does anyone have ANY information on how we could meet the members of Queen plus Paul Rogers after of before the stage, like where we would go if we want an autogrph because i hear of stories how people meet them before or after the shows and anything would be great just to get an idea as to were to go to meet them. Becuase i really have my heart set on meeting Brian and Roger!

I have a feeling that those who know may not be willing to share.
People who "know" these secrets tend to keep them to themselves or between close friends. Part of it may be that they might feel it would rob them of any chance of having more time with the Band Members themselves...you know, the whole "three's a crowd" mentality.
It's a little selfish in a way...i know...but some folks think like this.
I hope you DO get the chance to see them.....if you do just be cool and treat them with resepct.

well since im new to this concert stalking the band members type thing ill just try and figure it out myself if no one wants to tell a 14 year old new concert goer to the Queen concert circut because they are selfish and want them to themselves. Thats pretty selfish and ide have to say im prettyy selfish and this is the only thing ive been sure of(me meeting Brian May in person its my dream ((kinda pathetic isnt that??))). but thanks deacons 1st choice that helped me have a different light on the subject and how act when they are given knowledge

Not trying to discourage you or anything... just wanted to let you know why you may not get a answer out of anyone!
In all seriousness: Basically it happens to those that are in the right place at the right time. Pure Luck really.....
I always like to think that everyone, even a 14 year old concert newcomer like yourself, has a chance of meeting a Band Member. If you have the perserverence, and keep cool, anything can happen!
Good Luck and i hope you get a shot at seeing them!

"If I meet Brian I'm stealing his hair."
All of it? Do you want some help carrying it home?

My advice to you is try to find out what hotel they're staying at. It's not that hard, they normally choose the most expensive and poshest hotel in town. Hang about outside the main entrance about 4 or 5 hours before the concert, but be patient!
This is exactly what I did in Stockholm, Sweden, and was rewarded for my patience by getting to meet Brian and also getting him to sign a photo, aswell as take photo's of him. I think he was in a good mood this day, because I normally he's too stressed out before the gig to stop and sign stuff, so I felt very lucky.
However, I didn't get to see Roger or Paul, maybe they snuck out the back door.

Here's a friendly word of advice. I have met several famous people before, some of which I can honestly say are 'close personal friends' - meaning, yes, I've been to their multi-million dollar home, have the home phone, cell phone, vacation phone numbers, etc., so trust me - I know what I am talking about. (Sorry - I do not care to divulge the names of my famous rock star friends.)
Here are some simple ground rules:
DON'T ACT LIKE A STARSTRUCK FOOL! This is VERY important. As hard as it will be, try to stay calm, cool & collected. After all - they are just people, the only difference between them and us is that they have really fun jobs that make them lots of money. They get up in the morning, take a shower, brush their teeth (well, at least one would hope they do), and put their pants on one leg at a time - JUST LIKE YOU DO!
Try to talk to them about a subject that will a) grab their attention within the first 5 seconds, and b) will engage them enough to want to continue to talk to you (if Roger, I'd say cars, boats, whatever. If Brian - photography, astronomy/space, etc. Paul - I haven't a clue - leather pants I guess - that's a joke.)
ABSOLUTELY DO NOT RUN UP TO THEM - walk and keep your composure - and DON'T ask for an autograph or photo as the FIRST thing on your agenda - chances are that they would be more responsive and receptive to doing that at the END of your encounter.
I'm an old lady. I've been around the block a few times, and I see and have seen how fans treat famous people. I know what types of people gain their attention and I know what types completely turn them off. It's okay to be enthusiastic, but don't be demanding - that is the number one turn off for celebrity-type folks.
If you take this advice, should you get the opportunity to meet any of these guys, I can almost guarantee you that you will have a more memorable encounter, a more meaningful encounter, and then maybe we'll get to read something rather interesting.
You kids just gotta trust me on this one.
Love,
Ms. Bea

Oh, yeah - I did meet Brian May once...
If you do find out which hotel Brian is at, here's what I would do to get his attention: Go on the 'net, brush up on your knowledge of Rory Gallager (spelling?) so that you know as much about him as possible. Then, wear a Rory t-shirt. If Brian sees you, he's bound to call you over. Speak of your mutual love of Rory with Brian. Maybe it's devious, but hey, all's fair, right?
Other topics to chat about with Brian:
- Mysterious blobs on photographs
- Those weird specks you see in front of your eyes when you stare at a white monitor or the blue sky for too long
- The latest fashion in the world of clogs
- How he did that guitar effect in Bohemian Rhapsody
- Your love of sledgehammer science, like bombing meteors
- That lovely tent at the Wembley gig and how you enjoyed its acoustics
- Whether or not "Queen RIP 1991"
- Ask how his wife, Chrissie, is doing
I guarantee you'll have a nice conversation.
Don't mention the hair, though!
