The March 2006 edition of "Blender" magazine features an article about the "50 Most Awesomely Dead Rock Stars". Freddie Mercury is listed at the #17 spot and a 1/4 page photograph of him is shown. The article mentions the fact that Queen's worth has greatly increased in the years following Mercury's death. It goes on to mention the "We Will Rock You" musical as well as the current tour with Paul Rodgers. According to the article, while the current tour with Paul Rodgers, "diminishes Queen's brand value, the personal reputation of Mercury has been enhanced, with critical opinion generally agreeing that Rodgers is unfit to wear his predecessor's crown, metaphorical or otherwise".

Finally someone out there realized AND decided to say something about this ugly mess with Q+PR.
Freddie is gone, that means no "live" Queen..thats it.
Pop in a dvd/cd to get the real Queen.
Thank You for the wonderful news![/QUOTE]
I thought Queen died in 1991? How can we get Queen now if it is dead?

Are you blind? I said Queen as a LIVE act died in 1991.
Now all you can do is listen to records or watch dvds to see real Queen[/QUOTE]
You say that now but for the last month you've been saying "RIP Queen 1991"

Thats because Queen really did die in 1991. If you think Brian and Roger are Queen, get some help.
Queen is gone, and theres nothing you can do about it, but listen to their records and watch dvds. Queens records and dvds are always going to be there, aren't they? So listen to them and watch them. Their music lives on though records, but the actual band Queen, is gone.[/QUOTE]
But how can they live on if they're dead?

Company, always on the run
Destiny, oooh, and the rising sun
I was born, six gun in my hand
Behind the gun, I make my final stand
That's why they call me
Bad company,
Oh, I can't deny
Bad, Bad company
Till the day I die
Rebel souls
Deserters we are called
Chose the gun
And threw away the sword
All these towns
They all know our name
Six gun sound
Ooh, is our claim to fame
That's why they call me
Bad company,
Oh, I can't deny
Bad, Bad company
Till the day I die
Ahhh, good music featuring THE VOICE!!

Didn't Queen die as a live act in 1986?
Anyway, we ALL know how prestigious and dependable a publication like Blender is.

If your a Queen fan,would you rather have the amazing expirience and see Roger and Brian+Paul Rodgers perform and have an awesome time or Brian and Roger to be like "no we arent gunna do anything becuase Freddie is dead"
Be happy and they are still willing to entertain us live!!
Ofcourse its not the REAL Queen,but still!!!

I like cheese. Mmmmm....Gouda is Gooda.
Parmigiano? Anyone? ;)
Brie or Camembert... Even though it's a bit runny...
Look, I'm refusing to re-engage in these discussions until Coleraine Cheddar is recognised in this forum.

Why should they go as Smile. Brian and Roger alone are not Smile, there were other band members with them in the Smile. Remember... BTW Do you remember one guy from Queen named John Deacon? I think that all "real fans" like BPP snow flakey and all other PR hater forgot him
