Headlong instead of FBG. You Don't Fool Me instead of AOBTD. Heaven For Everyone instead of Say It's Not True. Save Me, because I think Paul would be amazing. In The Lap Of The Gods, just because. Tenement Funster instead of IILWMC. |

Hmm, I really don't know I'm not Brian May I suggest, Bri also does not know But, I hope, Queen + PR will be OK Funny, if there is here (on Queenzone) friend of Bri, Paul, Roger and could be asking for playing some new stuff of our favourite songs... |

| Voice of Reason 2018 15.01.2009 07:50 |
I'm surprised. You say it's your perfect set-list. When you think of all the Queen, Free and Bad Company songs out there Surf's Up and Say It's Not True make your perfect list? |
| boca 15.01.2009 08:09 |
Surf's up? lol I would like them to bring more Innuendo and Made in Heaven stuff. This setlists already became boring for me. Don't know why everyone thinks this is last tour with Paul...but yes, new singer would be great... |
| Valentine '90 15.01.2009 08:35 |
Bad Company, Celebrity, Warboys, Surfs Up, We Believe are good stuff, But, yes, would be great to remember some of 1989-1995 and mid-early stuff. Playing the songs from Brian solo-projects would be a pleasant surprise. Queen would make great covers (on stage) - like Deep Purple's Smoke On The Water, The Battle Rages On or Stones's Start Me Up. Maybe it's just a dream, but all the dreams can came true! |

Sorry for you but I don't think that the collaboration with Rodgers will go on... let's remember QUEEN for what they are: Freddie, John, Brian and Roger. The collaboration with Rodgers has gone too far for me... the first tour was GREAT and I've saw them In Pesaro (Italy) were they did an unforgettable show, the studio album was not that great... too far from Queen sound, it sounds more like a Rodgers solo album with the collaboration of Bri and Rog under the big name of Queen (seems like a markething operation for me in this way). I sincerly hope that if they want to go on with this project, they will change the name because another tour will came after another studio album with new songs that will enter in the setlist replacing the "old QUEEN material". So why did they just keep calling QUEEN? I like when they play live stuff of Free, Bad Company and 2 or 3 songs of the new album but some original QUEEN songs belong to Freddie and the original form of the band and the only way that I could imagine those songs is with the voice of Freddie. I don't want for them to stop touring and making studio albums, but if they want to do this they've got to do in another form, with another name. The first tour was great because it was like a tribute of the original QUEEN, but now after the studio album and the tour under the name of QUEEN for me the thing has gone too far. The "Cosmos Rocks" is a commercial flop, let's face it! Brian & Roger please give to the fans of the ORIGINAL QUEEN what they deserve! Something of rare, unique like dvd of 70's live concerts, the GVH III, a boxset of demos and unpublished material. Let's remember and respect what QUEEN is! |
| juan1921 15.01.2009 14:08 |
Sorry Raffi but Queen is whatever they want it to be. It's their name and can use it as they please whether we like it or not. The options are clear. If you like them, why bother about the name? If you don't like them, why bother about the name? Would you stop drinking beer if they change its name? Would you not drink a new drink that you like very much because they decided to call it wine (and it's not actually wine)? I'm still shocked that many people are only interested in make-up. You want them to keep playing but under a different name. So you like them but not with this name. Is that right? Anyway, let's hope that they keep on playing and touring no matter what songs they decide to play. Cheers everyone! |
| vadenuez 15.01.2009 14:31 |
No. The problem is simply that as long as they keep calling themselves Queen, the unavoidable comparisons will surface (they had to bear with it during these last months) and everyone will miss Freddie in some way or other, hence everyone's asking them something they can't deliver anymore. If they had chosen a fresh start as May/Taylor/Rodgers they could've come with a new album to tour and leave room for some greatest hits to play live and the critics couldn't come up with something like 'this is not Queen anymore'. But they chose to play it safe and kept the name. Now they're facing the consequences of such decision. |

What disturb me a lot is the comparisons... with another name they will have less people at concerts but otherwise those comparisons with the TRUE OLD QUEEN will stop and give space to the music wich is more important! |
| justys2 15.01.2009 15:59 |
For me as long as they don't call themselves Queen it's all right. Queen and Paul Rodgers makes a huge difference. Roger and Brian can call themselves Queen but not with Paul...so I think it was a good choice to add + Paul Rodgers.. Anyway I really don't care much about the name...music is more important and they play great..and it's been about 4 years of their collaboration and people still argue about their name...strange for me:) |

Queen + Paul Rodgers sonds good If Paul is in group called Queen, then he should sing Queen oldies I like Paul singing The Show Must Go On - I can not imagine the concert without this song! Would be great to perform Mother Love after Love Of My Life I don't like TieYMD and CrazyLTCL could be replaced (maybe surprisingly with Roger's Let's Get Crazy?) I think, they must change their songs to make a something new always (even with old songs, which are not old in my mind) - it was great to play The Words Of Love for example - they must continue in this way or establish a new group and do new songs and do not rewind Queen stuff so much I'm afraid, the reality is: they will do 50% of Queen reminding and 50% of Queen + Paul Rodgers new stuff - well, no one would be really satisfied, then |

I don't think they care much about those critics. I'll try to be as respectful as I can, please don't take this messege personal. I think mostly some fans have mistaken opinions about the current state of Queen. What I humbly think is that most of the fans probably hasn't assumed Freddie's death and that he was just the lead singer, not the leader of the band. So the band does not finish with Freddie's abscense. There are 2 other members left (one retired), who has the rights to do whatever they want with it. Why? Simple, it's their band. Roger and Brian created the band, spent years giving their lives to it and creating the music as much as Freddie. Now (unfortunatly) they're the only responsable for the band and they can do whatever they want with it. And the most natural thing to do if you're going to go along with the band is finding another singer. The great thing to me is that they had the respect to add "+PR" next to the name "Queen" to clarify that Paul is not part of Queen, nor Queen's lead singer. They're two diffent things. They still have in their minds that Freddie is and will always be Queen's singer. They show it during the tour as well, leaving space for some Freddie's appeareances such as Bijou and BR vocals and Love of My Life song where Brian states that it's Freddie's song and he misses him very much. . |

Whiny, ungrateful fans? The tour was a success so there's no ammo there for those hung up on a name. So it must be the album, which, while not a commercial failure, didn't sell as much as the band would've liked. However, do you really think the album would've sold more if they had a different name? And does it change the quality of the music if they have a different name? As for the professional music critics, for years Queen fans have been saying they know shit about Queen and have been printing unfair reviews: now, however, we're supposed to listen to these same shit music journalists because a section of Queen fans have an irrational hatred of the band's name. I susoect a few years from now many of you will look back and wonder why you were so angry about this and you'll probably regret not making the effort to go to the shows. Not only will Brian May and Roger Taylor not be around forever, it's likely we'll see less and less of them as they get older. Back on topic: Rodgers does some Queen stuff better than others so it's no surprise the new stuff on the tour was the strongest. He's better at doing slow(ish) tracks so I'd like to see It's Late, Innuendo and Keep Yourself Alive (original slower version). Not much chance of any of this however ;( |

Not much chance of any of this however ;( Yes that's why I can't understand some peolple. I can understand they don't go becouse they don't like Paul's voice etc. But I can't uderstand all this argument about the name. And the band said that Freddie is irreplaceable, that Paul isn't a replacement but it's something like new band but with the connection to the past. And I understand this and I think really they made a very good decision. And even if they call themselves May/Taylor/Rodgers there would still be a comperation. And sadly they are not young. So why some people can't be happy of what we have now. You know 5 years ago nobody thought that there will be Queen on tour again. Surely it's not the same without Freddie but it's graet to see Brian and Roger. And with such a great vocalist-Paul Rodgers. Under any name. It's only a name, it doesn't make them better or worse. But ok enough from me on this topic. As for the setlist I think it's much to early to even talk about it:) They've just finished recent tour. We don't even know if there is a next tour (although I somehow have the feeling that they will be around for next few years as QPR...and I really hope). But like Holly 2003 I would love if they play Innuedno or some other great old songs. ANd I would love if they make another QPR album. With some very good tracks...we'll see:) |

I'm glad you enjoy the lackluster "TCR" and the minority view that half of Queen somehow still is Queen. To the majority of the public though, Queen without Freddie Mercury in particular, is not Queen. I still can't believe you have to argue that fact on a Queen forum, or be accused of belonging to the "Church Of Freddie" because of it! There would've been a remarkable difference in the credibility of the project had they called themselves "Rodgers, May & Taylor" instead of trying to sell themselves as Queen. Probably still would've come up with a fairly naff album though, but at least that wouldn't have be regarded in most quarters as a sad footnote to a once great band. |

It was obvious that by using Queen + Paul Rodgers would attract more fans to the gigs than using May/Rodgers/Taylor and to make more money. They could then have slipped in some greatest hits as you say and maybe not fall into the trap of "this is not Queen anymore" I was very keen at first with the new collabaration - mainly to hear Queen songs performed again live. Now I'm not so bothered about Queen + Paul Rodgers anymore. They've maybe run their course. I know other bands have changed their singers - Van Halen for one - but Freddie was so brilliant with his style that he has become somewhat irreplaceable and nobody can come close to him in reproducing what Queen were - greatest live act ever. A hard act to follow as they say and only goes to prove what a stranglehold he had as a live performer. |
