Well, in short :)
The US newspapers writing things like "Hitler Look" because of his new odd moustache.
Freddie's response " I will shave it, before we went to Germany. No one should be offended by that "
( the crowd was booing when Freddie asked them for their opinion during the gig)
Nice article btw. :)
Thanks for posting it. Which source is it? BRAVO? POPCORN? I don't like the article because I think it's a lot of nonsense in it. I doubt that Freddie ever had said he will shave his moustache to offend nobody. And I never saw any article comparing his look with the Führer. Also here is written "The Rolling Stone" reviewed a Queen concert in LA as the best show of the season that even degrade Pink Floyds "The Wall". Comon, are they serious? The Rolling Stone?
Best regards,

Well, I framed it 37 years ago :-), so I can't to see reverse pages - I don' t remember the source. At first, I thought it was the Austrian Rennbahn Express, but as seen there "Im November kommen sie für sieben Shows zu UNS", so source coming from Germany ...

More likely, all the questions and scenarios you'd needed or felt needed closure and addressing with have been resolved and/or concluded with insufficient information (*pending new releases of old concerts) short lived and shortly intended anthology that may never meet fruition, any questions about further tours are already decided with the tour schedule (*if anybody's even interested in that), long standing myths have been debunked, and there is little of actual inquiry that you find interesting here.
Occasionally someone will post something revelatory (princes of the universe original helicopter mix, cool cat -complete bowie in great quality, the "gold (*good) mix" of " Queen's" TMBMTLTT, or an occasional insight from a resurrected article....
....but in general there's probably not much to talk about.
THAT THAT THERE IS* to talk about; doesn't get addressed because it's usually chalked up to being about a performers personal opinionsand lifestyle: for instance - Not ONE single mention of Brian's involvement in getting a "holiday" established for ASTEROID AWARENESS might be seen as frivolous to some, but i found it interesting that other notable minds are of the mindset that this needs to be addressed on a planetary issue; sometimes it's just small thinking (*or just earning the basic needs) that hinder someone's interest in such things.
To this, i don't know.
I DO check in nearly every day. It's been a habit of mine forever. I can acknowledge that this site being of itself a "powerless" FAN COMMUNITY will unlikely be a source of new information and material, it's merely a beacon for those striving to find out about Queen related interests and activities that might be occurring but are unbeknownst to all.
A few years back, some didn't know that Brian was doing a book signing in Hollywood (*this happens quite often now with each subsequent book release) BUT (!) some (*outside of the country for instance) would have ZERO knowledge of this.
And for those with finances allowing who would like to be "in the know" even little information like this is of interest to some (*not all)
Doubtless, it's not of much interest to you.
It's all relative.Yet with the intense scrutiny and reviewing that UBER FANS on QZ have - it is STILL likely the most CREDIBLE resource for Queen information. It may just take a bit longer than a usual Google source, but many of the folks here are so ERUDITE in QUEEN that it still lends credibility to the site, despite lacks of new information/updates etc.
I don't see the point in complaining about it.
The band has been in essence "deceased" since 1998 for new material. Anything current would be addressing the merits of the current QAL tour or the monopoly game. ...or this alleged film in production.
No surprises here that virtually every day is a "slow day"
If this is about AntonioCatBoy then you're absolutely wrong. .....dreadfully wrong. His post was in the GENERAL DISCUSSION section of the forum, and as a novelty singer on a multimedia platform, i believe he has as much credibility as the next singer out there. For all we know, he could be a stand by for the QAL tour just prepping us for expectation. ...that connection alone warrants its inclusion in the proper forum.
If nothing else - it made people smile
He looked nothing like Hitler at any point in his life. If anything he sometimes bore a slight resemblance to Stalin.
But I don't like mentioning Fred in the same sentence with those murderous bastards.
"But I don't like mentioning Fred in the same sentence with those murderous bastards." - I didn' t like too, and already 37 years ago ... I was shocked at that.
Probably an attempt to TELL HIM: hey moron, don't join that gay cult. Hey, get back to being an artist.
Like if Celine Dion got a tattoo across her breast plate and did a faux hawk - people (*critics) would throw caution.
Cause it's disingenuous.
Either way, Fred succumbed to that disease and ultimately the one that destroyed his body
