[QUOTE][QUOTENAME]goinback wrote: [/QUOTENAME]Queen joining the ranks of other classic rock bands having to do a joint tour to fill seats would be an all-time low point image-wise, even worse than American Idol. Queen has a mystique and legendary status...they can't maintain something like that by touring with a band so far beneath them like Journey (though I do really like Journey). Queen changed the course of music history and has a British sophistication; Journey is a really, really good rock band, but unfortunately has more of a blue-collar image like Bon Jovi.
Maybe if Queen toured with Pink Floyd, Paul McCartney, Led Zeppelin, The Who or someone else truly legendary it would be a great ticket, but there just aren't many bands up to Queen's status IMHO.[/QUOTE]
That's what I think too.

I saw Journey in 2005, and while they weren't awful, but I do really miss Steve Perry. There are so many bands I'd love to see tour with Queen (Def Leppard, Styx, etc.) but I can't think of a single band that has all the original band members still. No matter what, there will be someone complaining that "it just isn't the same without -------".
More likely to be 'Queen + puppet show' - or vice versa...
ummm guys JSS got the boot too
