Freddie's 60th birthday gig??

Well, reading Brian's latest entry on his website - it's obvious that they are planning to do a gig on Freddie's birthday this year, which would have been his 60th!

Exciting!
I put my bets on a show in London! ;-)

Never too early to open up a topic in which we can keep eachother informed out all this, is it?! ;-)

Wow, that would be great!

Count me in ... ;-)

Careful, Jeroen, Brian does not mention a gig. He said they consider to do "something" to mark the occasion.

A couple of weeks ago a show about Queen was filmed for a German TV station and the fans who were there heard about an upcoming Double DVD to commemorate Freddie's 60th birthday/15th anniversary. So, the "something" might well be another edition of the Untold Story.

But to be on the safe side, I won't plan a longer vacation around that time:)

2xDVD Hyde Park 76/05 would be nice.

A 3rd DVD of Q+PR? Unlikely! But an older show would be great indeed!

I know! ;-)
But that's all I could make of it - as the guy specifically asked if there would be a gig. ;-)

Hey, Richard! Long time no see! Allswell?

maybe earls court 77 or hammy 79 DVD? wow...that would be nice

It's always nice, Brian says someting on his website and we alle began the speculate.
I also have the hope on an special release (a concert or something), but probably it is a documantairy again.

A while ago John Stuart said that there is a release planned for the 60th b-day but we should not expect too much. QP must have hours and hours of unreleased Freddie interviews and other material, they can release 20 more extended Re-told Stories.

Be well good if they do a show or something :D Id go for sure! x

knebwoth 1986 freddies last concert

Oh no -another Best Of Freddie CD, that must be the result of an unprecedented brainstorm. Better than the Freddie Box??

Hey Jeroen,

Yes...been very busy with work, work and some work. So the posting on this board decreased to a minimum. I had the day off and found some time to visit the board again. How were your USA experiences? I had a hell of time in Cleveland

I heard about a FM 2-disc DVD several years ago, and then it was said it was put on the back-burner for a while. One disc was going to be a extended version of the Untold Story, and the other disc was going to be a more comprehensive set of promo-videos and interviews *i think*...! Though I wouldn't be suprised if things have changed.
