link John Deacon! A very rare piece of semi-public Queen-related activity from him. It's nice to think he's probably heard this release. |
| cmsdrums 28.08.2015 09:14 |
Wow....I wonder who got to knock on the door and say to Veronica Deacon... "Hello, is John there? Would you mind asking him to sign this....it's ok, I'll wait on the doorstep and he can pass it back through the window"!!! |
| Costa86 28.08.2015 09:27 |
Wow. Now that's something. And everyone's gotten so excited in the comments, even thought it's just a signature. Can you imagine if they do a 'normal' Queen+AL show, and in the beginning Brian says "we have a small surprise for you". Then John comes out and starts playing AOBTD... the whole universe would explode. Through his absence he's become almost as legendary as Fred. That's gonna sell for a lot of money. It's already at £500. |

John Deacon NEVER stopped signing things...especially when it comes to items for the Mercury Phoenix Trust. |
| mooghead 28.08.2015 11:43 |
Band meeting: 'John, sign this.' 'I dont even like you guys anymore' 'Just sign it you miserable fucker' 'Fine, give me some millions' 'Fine. Here.' 'New series of X Factor soon, maybe you can find a new Freddie for your silly tour' 'Get out' 'Whatever losers' |
| Marknow 28.08.2015 12:54 |
Defiantly fake. Oh shut up. |

I'd imagine they get sent to his manager and then gets returned. |

Thanks John! Nice to hear from you! It's all we wanted, really. |
| matt z 29.08.2015 05:33 |
Poor John. His signature looks out of practice. He didn't try the marker beforehand to see if it were well shaken and tested. Those are tell tale oil smears from improper distribution and disposition. Definitely REAL me thinks, like jar jar binks |
| Barry Durex 29.08.2015 14:20 |
Uh |

watch another one go up for sale with Freddie's signature...higher start bid i would hope. |

| matt z 30.08.2015 03:49 |
It's probably obligatory for John Deacon. Someone's gotta do some creepy work looking into their incorporation papers. Er whatever they're registered under. I think John's signature would be authentic. Not a big deal if he's (*and he likely is) a living part of the Phoenix Trust. |

I wonder how MPT are getting these autographs from three artists with the same silver ink. Do they send someone with the same pen to their homes, to meet all three and get the signatures? |
| mooghead 30.08.2015 16:53 |
A bunch of stuff turns up at business meetings, which all 3 are present at, and stuff gets signed to make money for the charity, probably the one last thing that knits them together... no brainer really... |

But it would be a nice surprise if in fact they have been the three of them together. |
| Doga 30.08.2015 23:57 |
If John want to stay out of focus it would be a unpolite move by Brian or Roger say: Yeah! I am dinning with him every week, and after that we always jam a bit. Saying they don't talk to him they avoid questioning and putting him on the public light, and sincerely, if is what he wants, what's wrong? |
| brENsKi 31.08.2015 03:36 |
and Brian does have a tendency toward "mis-remembering" stuff |
| Negative Creep 31.08.2015 17:01 |
What is there to say about this? Do people think they were all together signing this? lol |

But it would be a nice surprise if in fact they have been the three of them together. something bitchy and angry. Perhaps Roger would have said something like "Nice to see your CHECK signing hand working, John." to which John would quip: (after years of being relegated to the back mind you) John: "Ah,...Roger, did you manage to make a set of conga skins out of that old extra neck skin you had removed?" Brian: (playing badger ball on his mobile device) .... I'm sorry, but if I spent any more time signing things I'd have no time for this game, give it to my P.A. |
| luthorn 31.08.2015 22:32 |
Beyond my purse, but it is a nice touch that John cares much about doing things in Freddie's memory. |
| Enchlore 01.09.2015 19:45 |
What surprises me is not only the fact that John signed it, but that while Brian and Roger just wrote down their signatures, John went with "Best wishes -John Deacon". I found that a little bit cute. |
| ggo1 03.09.2015 12:03 |
Ok... leading bid is over two thousand pounds now... That's a little bit too high for me. Probably only be a fifth of that without John's signature. |
| cmsdrums 03.09.2015 12:28 |
Lovely to see that to generate funds for the MPT John is willing to contribute....classy touch |
| ggo1 10.09.2015 13:05 |
Went for 3800 GBP in the end. That's quite decent. |
