I read Fenerdeks signature about how he is not a "real" fan.
Well, what defines a real fan?

The ability to direct air current via rotating blades or by back and forth motion, in the case of hand-held Asian models.
When I was younger, I always wanted my own tractor.
Now I am all grown up, I have really gone off the idea.
Does this make me an extractor fan?

If you could train a wild dog to recruit enthusiasts, would you have a fan-dingo?

Especially if this dog trainer was an old French swordsman and impressionist called Scaramouch.
Imagine if he took requests...!
Scaramouch, can you do...

It was a joke, because people who are Freddie fans (not Queen fans) were criticizing people for supporting the tour with Paul Rodgers, saying they're not "real" fans. Thus, people like Fenderek, myself, and about 499,998 others aren't real Queen fans.

You're absolutely coorect Serry!!! Put me down for 28 years...
A bit unfair to say you have to have been a fan a long time to be a real fan. IMO
I think a real fan is someone who has all the albums and recognises the variety of the music and not just GH 1,2 & 3
You don't have to buy everything they release in all different formats etc to be a real fan. That would just make you a collector.

Part of what makes a real fan is the ability to see past all that 'Freddie was Queen and Queen was Freddie' shite. Freddie Mercury + John Deacon + Roger Taylor + Brian May = Queen. If these tour-bashers ever spent a reasonable amount of time on their maths homework they'd know that already.
So now let me ask, who's a real fan?

You are so right Sir GH , I remember that thread.
By the way , no such luck on that show we've been discussing. I checked out those store. Just gonna have to keep on trying.
Getting back on the subject. fans have different ways of showing their adoration to their Idols.
When I became a Queen fan, I lived in Brookly New York and I had to endure being called a FAG lover because of Freddie. Though I was able to dismiss the name calling and go on being a Queen fan it did have an effect on me. I show more compassion for Homosexuals though I don't condone it. I guess this makes me a true Queen fan. On the more humorous side, I use to sing every Queen song in my room thinking no one can hear me and my sisters use to be on the other side of the door laughing their asses off at me because I can't sing! I just loved to sing to their music. My favorite to sing to was Dreamer's Ball.

You see, this is exactly what causes all the confusion.
You say quite rightly that Queen was more than just Freddie, that it was four very spesific persons to be exact... Which isn't possible these days.
Based on your own math homework it's more than fair for the "tour-bashers" to say that Brian and Roger playing live on the same stage doesn't equal to Queen, no matter how much they (or you) claim them to be Queen. :/
So it MUST be possible to be a real fan of Queen (the four-man group), and not be ecstatic about "Queen" (the two-man group).

I think a real fan has to own some of Roger Taylor's solo material- now that's what I call blind or perhaps even deaf loyalty (sorry if I've offended any Cross fans out there)

Well, I'm not a fan simply because Freddie was a gay man. Duh, remember? Sheesh. ;)
