They'll definitely have to play more 70s songs and less 80s songs, because that's the stuff that was popular here. The general audience around here does not know The Works and AKOM.
The Walk Of Fame '02 concert had a good setlist. They brought back Stone Cold Crazy, for one thing. Maybe on this tour too...?

If and when the band tour the US, they will need a totally different setlist, since North American's could give a rats ass about anything that dealt with Queen and keyboards. If they pulled 15 songs from this list they'd come back and DESTROY the States. If they play Ga Ga, AKOM, IWTBF etc., they'll have a tough time winning the crowd over. (By album, not order of performance.)
Doing all right
Liar
White Queen
Brighton Rock

Oh HELL YA... I thought MANY times of that being a GREAT show opener. Along with the fast version of We Will Rock You.. Then go into Tie Your mother Down.. then they can go into one of Pauls songs and so on..
""""Queen"""" + Paul Rodgers + Timmy from up the street + Uncle Jesse on jug etc..etc will be better off with this set list:
Fat Bottom Girls
Tie Your Mother Down
We will Rock You
We are The Champions
Now I'm Here
Keep Yourself Alive
AOBTD
Crazy Little Thing Called Love
Under Pressure
Somebody To Love
Sheer Heart Attack
Love of My Life
I'm in Love with My Car
BoRhap
Now again, lets get in the real world..
Paul Rodgers, Timmy, Uncle Jesse, May/Taylor aren't playing "Liar".
How dumb are these lists that say "March of the Black Queen" and "Father to son" would rule.....
yeah, thats going to happen. (eyes are rolling)
Meanwhile, I have never met anyone in the USA that knew any song off of Innuendo before I got to them....I have taught guitar in institutions with 20 teachers.... and I was always the first to introduce these teachers (many in semi-pro bands) to the Innuendo album.
Songs like Breakthru, headlong, Innuendo, TATDOOL, TSMGO...etc..etc.. are just not known songs in the USA.
They would flop here.
And this "incarnation" of "Queen" should stay the hell away from "Ga Ga", "I want to Break Free" , or anything else that will make these hillbillies wonder if they didn't make a wrong turn into a gay bar.
you know, as much as I love Innuendo and the whole mother-lovin Innuendo album, Scott_Mercury you're on to something about people recognizing songs -- why not add Another One Bites the Dust and You're My Best Friend? Both are fairly well-known over here...
how about seven seas of rhye. love that song. I'm a 13 year old in the US. and all the keybord stuff is great.
is it official, are they coming to the us or not
