I agree with Serry....lol
Hey! I for whatever it is worth consider Queen + Paul Rodgers as Queen! Yes! That's as in the the new lineup of Queen! Get over it and stop posting if you have a problem with it! As in the Who are a duo! Fleetwood Mac now have only two original members who write and sing NOTHING!! As in KISS who only have two original members, as in Whitesnake who only have ONE original member, and as in Guns N' Roses who only have one original member!!! Now GO AWAY!
If it was to me then no - I won't go away, don't ask me even anymore... Get over it and stop asking me.

But I have never heard about Slash playing in the band "Guns'n'Roses+" - I don't know why but he formed Velvet Revolver... And even Paul Rodgers himself have never played in the band "Free %" - it was Bad Company due to some "unclear" reasons... Macca played in The Wings instead of "The Beatles /"... What a stupidity - using new name for new band!
So apparently Brian confirmed that studio time is booked in October to coincide with Paul's UK tour.

He said this in a video message to the Breakthru '06 convention.

Now THAT is not an old message.
Straight from the man's mouth.

The name Queen expired in 1992 along with the tribute concert and its memories were refreshed in 1996 Made in Heaven

Brian and Rog dont make Queen, so Queen + shouldnt be there...

John isnt there

Freddie aint there

These two old hags cant live up to the name![/QUOTE]


I hate to bust your bubble, BUT...

Brian And Roger ARE the only founding members of Queen left, John was NOT a founding member, and Freddie is gone, and Freddie's family gave thier blessing, so These two old hags CAN live up to the name, and will, get over it! :)
Anything that Brian Roger and Paul come up with will be better than having no new material at all from any Queen members....let's face it..the tour was fantastic....and Freddie hasn't written or sang anything in a really long time.......people just let Brian and Roger make new music for fans that actually care about Brian and Roger (Queen members) and not think that the world ended in 1991...can't wait to any new recordings!! and yes they can call themselves anything they like including Queen + Paul Rodgers....Brian and Roger started the whole thing and are here to keep it going....they are also keeping Queen alive in all it's formats....70s 80s 90s and 00s....Queen lives on forever!! The Show Must Go ON!!

Brian said in the video message ... "We shall see what happens"

Hopefully something good evolves from this studio time ...

Yes, this information is correct. I saw the video greeting myself and it was very nice....recorded early last month based on the topics he was covering.

Yes, Bri did state in the video message for the BT Convention that studio time IS booked for October to coincide with Paul's upcoming solo tour in the UK. He also seemed very optimistic of future show dates in the coming year if things go well. Since this was a special message exclusively for the US Convention attendees ( not the usual replayed message originally made for the UK Con) Bri addressed the viewer as a US Fan and said: " We will be seeing you soon". I suppose one could feel he ment future US dates down the road. This was my take on it, as i already feel he has interest to come back and the Band themselves seemed to enjoy there time here.

We shall see....but it won't be anytime soon. We just all have to be pateint.

Still not "new news" though....as this has been covered before. I suppose it's "new" in that it has now been officially confirmed by Brian himself.

Thanks Deaky's 1st Choice.

USA CONVENTION STORY AND QUEEN AND PAUL RODGERS
HEADING TOWARDS A STUDIO ASSIGNATION
I'll be first in line to buy the cd and I will certainly go see them live again, too (which may mean traveling, but I did that before and would do it again).

As for the naysayers - go ahead and live in the past. It doesn't hinder Brian, Roger, or Paul in the decisions that THEY will make in terms of the music they produce or the places that they may or may not tour. As for as you all are concerned, I think you are just missing out by remaining in what you to be.
During the tour, did you ever consider that the name QUEEN PLUS PAUL RODGERS does not have to represent a specific BAND-name but the repertoire of the show that is being staged?

And Brian indeed said several times it was good to see the SPIRIT of Queen is still alive. Of course he and you know that the majority of the people present at the shows are QUEEN fans and they are there to hear the QUEEN songs. And apart from that: he is right! If you are at such a show, with friends and fellow fans together with whome you prior to the show have anjoyed an pleasant day in pubs or in ques talking enthousiastically about your favourite band of all time (QUEEN), ... yes everybody will admit that the SPIRIT of Queen is indeed there.

Now with the cd, of course you are right about the fact that it no longer stands for the repertoir but indeed should be considered a BAND name.

Now bare in mind, you know what kind of a fan I am, right? Serry? I'm one of the old-school die-hards and also a critical one. Just to remind you that I don't say this lightly:
Abou the name...
I don't care. I realy don't. Changing their name now would commercially be just stupid. Yes, commercially. Queen has always been a commercially 'aware' band and made no secret of being in it for the money to a certain level. And right they are. Please, don't forget that they are just doing their JOBS. That's what they do for a living. Simple. I have seen the recordbusiness from the inside and have all understanding for the descision. But even if I hadn't... screw it. I understand the descision and I accept it. Had they changed the name? Wonderfull! I hope it would have been the kind of name that would have appealed to me! They didn't? Fine. Now I have TWO NAMES that appeal to me at the same time! Because, yes, I already was an admirer of Paul Rodgers ages before he joined forces with the founders and great musicians of my all-time favourite band.

Because, of course, I hope the music will ALSO appeal to me. Will it appeal to me as much as QUEEN? No, of course not. That is never possible. QUEEN was QUEEN WITH FREDDIE. Nothing in the world will ever do more to than that. Nothing will ever move me more. It will always remain my numer one all-time band. But this new project (PROJECT: 'Queen plus Paul Roders'!) might maybe end up in the top ten, lord knows. I CINSERELY hope it will! I'm not to sure it will, in reality and in all honesty. But I would still be excitited to hear the new material and maybe have a new album in my collection that I would enjoy listening to every once and a while.

Heard the rumour on holiday - JUST returned and just had to respond immediately when I saw the rumour confirmed.

Oh, and by the way: Brian did indeed, in the past, SUGGEST that something MIGHT happen at some point. That's also the tone he uses in the magazine letter. With reservations. These days on his website he OFFICIALLY CONFIRMED that studo's have been booked for recordingsessions.

I'm already looking forward to next year when they tour!
