I'd love to see John back, but if he's not interested, I'm not too bothered.

well everything would be played live besides the vocals and it would feel very powerful and emotional seeing john,brian and roger playing to footage of freddie. Also it would feel ALOT more powerful to tour with just the Queen name and no outside people like paul. Alot of people never saw Queen live and this would be next best thing. I really think it would have been alot better than what they are doing now and they would get alot more respect for that than to bring in a guy who is total opposite of Queen sound and also use the Queen name without john and freddie.

Its worth discussing, it would have also been the best option for brian and roger, they would have got alot more respect for that than what they are doing now.

Even better - Robo-Fred malfunctions, kills Brian, Roger, and half the audience, and as a tribute to them all, John Deacon comes out of retirement and goes on tour with Paul Rodgers as Queen + Paul Rodgers. Dead brilliant.

It's about musical progression not some two hour plus road show honouring Freddie. If you don't get this you obviously don't understand anything about a band playing live. If I want this type of experience I'd watch an old Queen DVD. I appreciate your enthusiasm but realistically it'll never happen.

Yes, that would be a tribute concert to Freddie. But it could be played once. And then - good-bye to Brian and Roger?

Some of my friends who didn't use to be fans or know much about Queen are asking questions about them and starting to listen to Queen records. And the new band is breathing new life to Queen...

Im just saying they would have got alot more respect for doing that instead as they already use freddie footage on several songs, its impossible to even come close to the quality of queen without freddie so why use the name and ruin it? they should have just kept the memory alive and played with freddie footage.

only stupid one is YOU! how would they kill the legacy that way? what they are doing now is hurting the legacy with the realeasing of an album that sounds much more like paul rodgers than Queen.

well i dont think they should use the Queen name, they could just go on with their solo careers or do a project together but not call it Queen.

I think just one "troll" message was enough to express yourself. Why the repeated messages, inu-liger?

STFU! my topic is valid, they are already using alot of freddie footage so it would have been better to JUST use the footage and dont bring in a bluesy singer who doesnt fit in AT ALL!

There's a reason. It should be obvious if you think about it :-)

I prefer going to the Budapest show on 28/10, which I will :)

Guy's like Gavin DeGraw, Jason MRaz, Dave Grohl and co, would be able to cover a whole range and variety of music from pop to rock to heavy metal, which imo, was the true essence of Queen. At the moment there sort of stuck in the one genre with Paul, which while still good, can definitely become bland and boring. Then sure, if they want to tour, bring in a guest singer.

nah that wont lead to any good things, the "artists" today have 1/1000 the talent of freddie and they have no business being involved with Queen.
