According to his blog, Paul Rodgers will play a special London show in November as part of Classic Rock’s Roll Of Honour celebrations.
Rodgers will play Hammersmith Apollo on Friday, November 6.
What do you think? Brian or Roger will be there?

I doubt they will be there. It is Paul's 'moment' in the spotlight and it would be very unfair of Brian and Roger to turn up and spoil that for him. Of course I would LOVE to see them make an appearance together again, but it has to be in the right context. Paul is first and foremost a solo performer, and he deserves to have some recognition of that I feel.
I recently bought Paul Rodgers "Live in Glasgow" CD ,i was struck by how much better Paul sounded doing his own songs. He sounds amazing and its a great CD which really showcases what PR is all about, I just dont think that QPR was ever going to have the same magic.

I dont agree with that. Pauls songs sound shite without Queen expecialy on Live in Glasgow cd

I rented the DVD a while ago and I don't agree with you either!
Yes, Paul sounds "good" on HIS songs because they are written for HIS voice, but I find the music itself is rubbish - it's missing that magic spark that Brian and Roger gave to Paul's songs during the QPR tours.
What I'd really like to hear next is a solo album from Paul of HIS greatest hits, but with Brian & Roger playing backing instruments - that could be one hell of an album!
On reflection i think you could be right,Pauls vocals are excellent on Live in Glasgow but the music is no where near as good as Queen provided. I stand corrected !
