March 1st: Queen + Paul Rodgers on Rockline

From what I remember:

- New song for the tour - Written by Paul
- Roger does not know whether to sing Say It's Not True on the tour. Brian says he should.
- No Now I'm Here in the setlist at the moment, but they have looked at it
- Looking at material from the first three albums
- Some new older songs will be in the set
- Roger wants to record a studio album with Brian and Paul
- They would like to release the 46664 tracks at some point as they feel they kinda got lost
- Japanese DVD was released to counter bootlegs of the tv show
- Problems with their plane while flying over Germany during the European tour

Thanks a lot Pieter! I was so anxious I was about to have a SHA. :)

As for the meaning of life, nevermind, I think I got it figured out. ;)

Cheers,

That kind of....sucked. Sort of boring in my opinion.

I don't want Roger to sing SINT but I want him to come up to the front and sing something. What do you all suggest? I know it's too late to send in suggestions to Brian but I'd like to konw what you all would want to hear him sing. He's got to stay behind the drum kit for IILWMC so he can't come forward for that. I really didn't like the way SINT sounds but it is a good song. Just not concert material in my opinion.

I wish I could hear Tenement Funster, but that aint gonna happen.

I hope they decide to add Now I'm Here at the last minute.

Oh and one other thing from the interview was Brian said they are still deciding what intro music to use.

Tenemet Funster would have been awesome but he DID confirm SINT is going to be there, so...

OK, i dont understand why Brian and Roger dont get it...they need a set list that ROCKS from start to finish! Nothing new, nothing slow, just old Queen songs that ROCK! period! Thats the only way this tour will go well.

- SINT studio version - what was the context?

Roger mentioned a "recorded version" of Say It's Not True that's available for download. Not sure exactly what he meant since the only recorded version I know of is from the 46664 DVD/CD and I didn't know if that was available for download anywhere.

Also, as for Brian wants to chill: Roger said he wanted to start recording material with Brian and Paul after the tour is over, while Brian said he wanted a vacation. Brian does mention the possibility of recording, but not as quickly as Roger does. Paul, on the other hand, does not respond to that question.

I disagree. The acoustic section of the show is excellent. I agree we could do with out Say It's Not True, but I am excited to hear the new song that Paul has written.

OK, you got me there. I forgot about '39 and Love of my Life. But I would think that the majority of "fans" that'll be at the shows wont give a rats ass about a new song that Paul has written.

Thank you, Zeni, thank you YV. I'll download it right away.

Man that was the most boring interview I've heard in a long time. Band interviews are always difficult, but this one was particularily bad. They were totally unprepared and had nothing interesting to say whatsoever. All three of them have given a hundred times the interviews I have, but at least I've had something to say. They didn't know the details about future releases, they said nothing about how they got together, nothing about carrying on after Freddie, had no stories from the past tour and they did nothing to hype the new one. It would have been better if BHM had done it on his own because together they did nothing to help promote Q+PR.

They sound bored in my ears if this is true, but love Roger for showing such enthusiasm!
I`m very excited to hear the new song, hope it`s a good one!
