here are songs that would fit the style they play now:Its late,Sleeping on the sidewalk,dead on time(in a slower tone),and perhaps Liar which has lots of room for ad-lib and could be played bluesy.
ha how about a little unknown tune called Spread Your Wings...sung by Roger Taylor
The problem with dropping We Will Rock You and We Are The Champions is that it would make people stay several hours to wait for them as they are expected. Imagine 10.000 people left in the venue next morning when the janitors and cleaners are there to clean up .
I really liked reaching out, i would love them to keep that in, but perhaps into WWRY fast version. I would love them to play let me entertain you, death on two legs and get down make love, a few of my favorite songs i may add.
Does anyone remember how Queen opened up their shows during the ANATO tour? With the operatic section of Bohemian Rhapsody played back from tape, then the band would take over for the hard rock portion, and after the hard rock section, go straight into Ogre Battle. I think a similar arrangement could work on any future Q+PR tour if they decide to pull Bo Rhap out of the setlist. The operatic section has always been played from tape, and the hard rock section is one of the few areas of that song that Paul Rodgers really can work with his vocal range being so different from Freddie's. From there, maybe they could go to Ogre Battle (though I doubt Paul could pull that number off) as in the old days, or more likely into the fast We Will Rock You--maybe into a rockier piece off of the new album.
It's a nice middle ground between those who want to see Bohemian Rhapsody pulled from the setlist and those who want to keep it, but want to find another way to do it so that the video remains special.
That said, Brian and Roger know full well that there would almost be a riot if they did a show without performing Bo Rhap in its entirity, and the video so far seems to be the only way to really do that, as none of the current band members have the voice for it. Maybe they'd have to bring a "special guest singer" along just for Bo Rhap? Queen + Paul Rodgers + Elton John, anyone?

Man, no way of dropping that songs, they played it almost on every concert, better to drop "Hammer to fall", though it's almost impossible, but they should play "Too much love will kill you" and "Who wants to live forever", sang by Brian. "In the lap of the gods" would be appreciated.
