Why couldn't they write as good material now as they did in the 70's? What's stopping them? They propably have learned a lot since the 70's. I think it's great they're still creative. And I don't think that the purpose of this current Q+PR activity is to become the biggest band on the planet. Why can't we just let the old men have some fun and do some rocking and rolling. They're good at it. It's not hurting anybody. And talking about their legacy...

Treasure Moment wrote: What they should have done is to tour and just have freddie on the screen for a whole concert as they are doing with bohemian rhapsody now.

Now, THAT would be embarrasing, and would REALLY hurt their legacy as one of the greatest live acts ever. Also, if they did that, Queenzone would be filled with topics screaming: "STOP ROBBING FREDDIE'S GRAVE, YOU GREEDY BASTARDS!!"

Cause we all know there are only like 5 concerts that queen have recorded that are worth watching, thats why they keep re-releasing them. but hey you could go to sydney and watch freddie perform in Wembley. Yay

It´s certain that you have not seen them live...! I think Brian, Roger, Paul and the rest of the band did really well on the 2005 and the 2006 tour...! Great music, great performances! Do you know who John Deacon was?

of course i know, im a VERY big Queen fan and i believe you when you say that their performances with paul have been good, im just saying it would have been even better if john was with them and they had freddie on the screen and no one else singing.

Elvis Presley's old band and back-up singers actually did this - went on tour and played live to old footage of Elvis singing. It was pathetic and the tour was a miserable failure. If Brian and Roger had done that, they might as well have called it the "we are creatively bankrupt, have nothing new to offer, and desperately want to ride the coattails of a dead man all the way to the bank" tour. If people want to watch old film of Freddie Mercury, they can do that quite easily at home. And having looked at your MySpace page, its obvious that whichever member of your band posts here is one of those "Queen was Freddie Mercury's stage name and the other three were little better than hired session players" fans, so I don't really take you very seriously. And your band isn't very good either. It sounds like Trans-Siberian Orchestra with whiny vocals. Take some voice lessons.

It´s that you have not mentioned John... Only Brian, Roger and Freddie on a back screen...

The screen concept is a nice idea, but too ridiculous to really do, especially for a stadium. Queen would get hammered by the press...they got so much slack just for using the Bo Rhap recorded opera segment when Freddie was alive. Queen don't like playing with tapes anyway. They'd have to play all their instruments at the perfect speed for Freddie's vocals to match up and couldn't improvise.

They wouldn't even fill a small arena like that. On the other hand, as Queen+PR they played to some 65,000 people at the Hyde Park. Considering that's more than, let's say, the MK Bowl'82 gig... I'd say they're doing well.

If you TRULY believe that, you are delusional. Yes, Freddie was IDEAL for those songs, but any singer worth his or her salt can do justice to a Queen track.

Which explains why Ibex and Wreckage were incredibly famous, and also why Freddie had so many hits in his solo career... You little fuckwit, do you think Freddie would've liked to see people dissing Brian and Roger? After he joined them, he never left them. He recorded with them until he couldn't leave his house anymore. If FREDDIE MERCURY acknowledges that Brian and Roger are wonderful musicians, who the fuck are YOU to disagree? Most solos from Freddie's songs were actually written by Brian. Including solos from songs like Killer Queen and Bohemian Rhapsody. That's how much Freddie trusted Brian's skills as a musician. Now have a nice cup of "shut the fuck up".

Micrówave wrote: Treasure Moment is right. They should have Freddie on screen during the whole show. In fact, all the band should directly face the screen during the whole show. There's no need to acknowledge the fans, Freddie's taking care of that. Eliminate the need for a click track, and just leave the amps off. Play with tracks. That way every note can be corrected and every pitch fixed. Seeing a band live shouldn't give a unique experience, it should be as close to the album as possible. There's no need for long guitar solos or that crazy Timpani thing that Roger insists on doing. And at the end of the show, John Deacon comes walking out and picks up a check from each member of the band, turns to wink at the Freddie Screen, and puts on Freddie crown and robe during God Save The Queen. An opening act could be replaced with all the Milli Vanilli videos on the Freddie Screen. After all, it was Fabrice that made Milli Vanilli what they were. Rob Pilatus should quit the music business altogether, like Brian and Roger should. Hey, maybe Rob could sing Queen songs with Brian and Roger. Throw a little "Blame It On The Rain" between Bohemian and Rock You.

Adding to John's royalties checks is 'lack of respect'? What?!? John wasn't even the original bass player!!! By your logic, Queen showed a lack of respect firing whoever to hire John.

I mean they are already the greatest band of all time by far and can never be beaten

Dude, it's not a video game or a level 27 Arch-Bishop. It's a frickin' Rock Band!!! There's no contests or battles to be won. You say Queen can "never be beaten?" Well then, scoreboard AIDS. AIDS beat Queen. So I guess they've lost. What do we do now?

Thats why i thought its better to... ...promote Queen

And that's why you don't work for QPL. Also proves that you (1) don't have a marketing degree and (2) there's probably no chance you ever will.

than have a singer that doesnt fit in and sings in odd time

No, that's your ENTIRE BAND.

Given. However, Queen sold 300,000,000 albums over the course of 30 + years. The new release is a single song that has been available for about two weeks. Slight chronological difference = your data are silly.

100 000 is also NOT 300 000 000 sold albums

Given. However, Queen sold 300,000,000 albums over the course of 30 + years. The new release is a single song that has been available for about two weeks. Slight chronological difference = your data are silly.

alright that was exagerated, i just meant it mostl likely wont sell so much for different reasons. Some Queen fans will buy it some wont.

Yeah I suppose the 100,000 downloads were all one big protest.

I think if a song that the artists themselves had been distributing as a FREE DOWNLOAD on their own website makes it into the charts, it can't be bad. Afterall, people wouldn't need to pay for it to legally own it. Besides, the 100,000 downloads are from the official website. There were (are?) people distributing it on the Queen Hub, the song is also available on P2P programs, there are lossless torrents of the real single... *rolls eyes*

I think there is no problem with calling them selfes queen because young bands, and also maybe yet unknown band also change there members and still use there name.... i don't hink there is a problem with it even though queen were famous... and the other thing is.... you can see "queen +paul rodgers" as the new name.. there is just accidental a queen in it! *g*

Just for my interest, if instead of freddie, roger would have died, would you than also say, the can't go on?

If they dont want to sit at home and want to play music together then do it, just dont use the Queen name, start a new project. I have alot of respect for both Roger and Brian but really they should just start another project and drop the Queen name. John knew that it was finished after freddie died and did the right thing to quit. Thats showing respect for their past and freddie. They have already accomplished everything that is possible with Queen.

Just because Freddie died doesnt mean they should just throw in the towl. Freddie would have wanted them to join Paul Rodgers and keep them going. By the way, Queen isn't their band name anymore. They go by the name Queen+Paul Rodgers

That explains why he was still a member until 1997 (6 years after Freddie died), and then, giving the other two permission to carry on using the name, when he could easily go for a lawsuit.

Freddie & John are more then welcome to join. They've declined. Email me and I'll see if I can do something about getting your band on the bill. You guys are fantastic!
