... Brian once said he can't possibly play the Spanish guitar section that Steve Howe played on record, so I guess they would need a somewhat different arrangement, unless Jamie can make it in his place...

Hey, Queen fan is a Queen fan. If they don't recognize Innuendo or Headlong then they should shoot themselves

"Headlong" got some minor airplay over here on the rock stations. There's no way casual fans would know Innuendo though, and it's not the most upbeat song in the world...it would totally kill the show IMHO (even though I really like that song)....

I don't like reading comments like this - fairly condescending, in a way, whether intentionally or not. But no offense taken.
I think the Innuendo CD actually is well known & loved by us American Queen fans, and all you have to do is check a used CD store to realize that people mostly hold onto it (as with most Queen CDs). On the contrary, Made In Heaven & The Miracle don't seem to be as well-liked, but I wish they hadn't dropped "I Want It All" from the setlist, nonetheless. That is one of the ROTC DVD highlights for me.

I WANTED HEADLONG MORE THAN ANYTHING!!!
I really think that this song will be played but not until the next tour for a new studio l.p. In the meantime they need to tour the rest of the world more for "Return Of The Champions" AND return to the U.S. for many more dates as there are many more places they have yet to go yet and they can still raise the interest in Queen more here in the U.S. than they already have. They have no excuses! They just did a successful tour here in the U.S. of A.!!!
