So....after the way Queen + Paul rocked the Meadowlands is there any chance they will return to the USA to do a full fledged tour?
I was at the NJ show and my mixed emotions about it flew out the window once they started rocking. Freddie would have been proud.
God Save The Queen!

I think they will be back, especially when you consider that Brian said on his website "I think it was quite the most amazing thing I have been part of for a long time."
Is it up to Brian though if they tour again? Or is it up to Beach?

God I hope it's nothing to do with Jim Beach.

I would imagine it has a lot to do with him..
Brian would probably make the decision more from the point of view of pleasing the fans, but I bet it would be all about the Benjamins to Jim Beach. Of course, Roger and Paul might have a say, as well..;-)

Doesn't look hopefull; according to Brian in this month's Guitarist Magazine he is reluctant to put together a 2-3 month US tour in view of family commitments, writing an astronomy tome with Sir Patrick Moore and finishing his PhD thesis in Tenerife.
Personally, I don't think the tour will happen after the poor showing of ROTC in terms of US album sales, maybe the DVD will fare better, but I wouldn't hold my breath for a full-on arena tour - will it sell out?

ROTC did not sell well anywhere really. I still say a full US is a possibility.

They'll let him finish his thesis after 30 years? Is he just going to finish it or is he actually completing his PhD? (I guess I could read the article . . . but I don't have it.)

I guess we can only cross our fingers!
Crazy Little Thing dear...i think Brian would like to finish his thesis after all this time. It's one of those things i've heard him talk about for a long time..one of those projects he's always wanted to get to but never had the time.
Maybe when he retires...that would be a nice thing to do when he has more time to himself. It will probably give him some sort of completion within himself to do so. Brian's a nostalgic sort of chap...:) I wish him the best in doing so!!

Ok, here is the scoop I got on the back stage tour in NY/NJ before the show. Yes, they are coming back. The tour manager said they are coming back. She has worked with U2 and Elton John.
I was there and Dr May was elated to be playing before a sold out crowd in the NYC area.
Merc,do you work at Merck?

How could it be up to anyone but the band?

I don't recall that being said.. When did you hear that on the backstage ripoff, I mean tour? ;-)
