Well done rog, confriming once again what all the naysayers will hate to hear. Quote from Roger's radio interview. |

Now, you can't get out of this one folks. Stop making excuses and just accept the facts. What are you gonna say now, "Roger's telling lies about Freddie" perhaps... |
| That guy who digs energy domes 27.01.2006 13:24 |
Oh no. John Edwards talked to Freddie. He said paul was a poopoo head. |
| DreaminQueen 27.01.2006 13:38 |
And once again... This fact has been brought up time and time again. Its even in bios, interviews etc that Freddie enjoyed Paul's work... You will never change anyones mind if they're opinionated enough. At least now theres concrete proof on QZ for the naysayers. You cannot dispute facts people! |
| Serry... 27.01.2006 13:40 |
Okay for your fun: Roger's telling lies about Freddie "Its even in bios, interviews etc that Freddie enjoyed Paul's work..." Now show me interview where Freddie says that he's a PR fan. This "defend any Queen action with PR" behaviour is overacting actually... |

Either way i dont care and i ENJOY hearing paul sing fred's stuff. as long as he's not trying to re fill anyone's shoes (which he's not) im alright |
| icefire 27.01.2006 15:01 |
what i think is that you should not be outragious about what your fave band's musicians are doing..i DO NOT APPROVE of any studio work cause it will surely change all the style and understandment of the QUEEN format... but the fact that they are playing instead of sitting at home is not bad at all..a lot of people like to hear old songs again..live..and see their musicians..and i think that brian and roger only took a vocalist to fill the vocal parts of the music they are playin'..how about this idea..think this way and it will be easier..and as for the title QUEEN+PR it's vey simple: everybody has heard a band queen..not the fans even..and i am sure that fifth part of them don't know brian may and roger taylor..it is a common knowledge.. and what i also think is that it is so PATHETIC that those who call themselves true fans SPIT on the members of their beloved band!! they still are the same guys as before willing to give pleasure..and once more-NO STUDIO WORK!!!!! no offence.. |

REAL fans stick by ALL the members of the band and what they decide to do!!GET OVER IT PEOPLE!!!Theres more important things to worry about in the world then if Paul is tryin to replace Freddie , which hes not. |

I think we should stop trying to convince these stupid stuborn people, i don't know why they post at queenzone if you're not going to support Queen....why do these posts come up every few months? :@ god talk about ungrateful |

You can always put words on a dead man's mouth. In almost 30 years of interviews to Fred he never mentioned liking Mr Rodgers (which doesn't neccesarily mean he didn't). So who knows ... maybe if tomorrow they've got a row with him and he quits, they'll hire Fab Morvan and say that Freddie's favourite album was All Or Nothing, and that Charles Shaw was the actual singer during Innuendo sessions :) |

I can't say whether Freddie actually liked PR, but I do know enough about marketing to know that it doesn't matter. By saying the PR is one of Freddie's faveorites, Brian and Roger are just trying to get Queenfans to accept him. The main reason some fans are hostile to QPR is because of Freddie, so they try to make it seem that Freddie is on the side of QPR by saying that he likes PR. That's all it is really. and though I like QPR, I hate to see them resorting to such tactics to win people over |
| KillerQueen1429 28.01.2006 01:19 |
omg how long did Roger know Freddie??? LiKE 20 some years or more right?? Well none of us knew him so it seems to me that Roger would know more about who he liked and who he didnt more then anyone in here would. |
| biggest_fan_K 28.01.2006 01:22 |
but Roger CAN make up words for Freddie so their tour will sell well |

Huh? No-one asked Rog or Bri what Freddie thought about Paul. Who cares if he was a fan or not? And answer is very simple: it's an excuse to fans who don't like this project. |
| Sebastian 28.01.2006 08:17 |
> Roger would know more about who he liked and who he didnt more then anyone in here would. Yes, but it doesn't mean he wouldn't lie in order to get the bloody tour accepted. |
| Rompez 28.01.2006 10:00 |
Can anybody prove that Freddie didn't liked Paul? Little example. I can call myself a fan of a few bands: Queen, Genesis etc... But I have lots of bands and singers that i can call my all time favorites. And if i've ever been interviewd i've never named any of tham. Does it prove that I don't like them? No. Nodody stands that Freddie was crazy about Paul. Brian & Roger just say that he liked his music. Is it so imposible to belive them? |
| Serry... 28.01.2006 10:03 |
Difference is that Freddie named a LOT of artists whom he liked - even persons like Lionel Richie... And actually Brian said that Paul was a hero for Freddie, not just someone whose music he liked. |

And Freddie was fond of Paul's singing particulary. Fred used to change his musical tastes dramaticly. But unfortunatly he didn't give interviews in 1971:) |
| KillerQueen1429 28.01.2006 12:47 |
wow fans here calling members of the band liars now and they call themselves true fans...wow some ppl just need to come to terms with reality,Queen+PR is reality now gotta deal wit it whether u like it or not,Freddie is gone , sad and missed yes , but the others are NOT and dont have to sit around for the rest of their lives wondering what could have been.Brian and Roger are what is left of Queen since John CHOSE to give it up, Freddie was a big part of Queen but was NOT Queen.If you are all such loyal fans u should be glad the others are doing what they love and are bein successful at it and not critisize them , be glad we still have them since we dont have Freddie anymore!! |
| Serry... 28.01.2006 12:52 |
I'm a loyal fan of Queen's music, but not a keen fan of Brian's, Roger's, Freddie's or John's personalities. And I'm not gonna support anything what they're doing neither agree with anything what they're saying. I'm not a fanatic. |
| Sebastian 28.01.2006 16:46 |
> wow fans here calling members of the band liars If you're referring to me, I'm not saying Roger's a liar. Neither I'm saying he's not. I don't know if he's lying or not since I don't know him and I never knew Fred. My points are: 1. Roger (or anybody) can easily put words on a dead man's mouth 2. Saying Fred was a huge fan of Rodgers is certainly an effective promotional trick (both if it's true or not). And I still stand by those points. I'm not "accusing" Roger of lying, just pointing out those two possibilities. > wow some ppl just need to come to terms with reality And reality is that neither you nor me can know for sure if Fred liked Paul or if Roger is lying or not. > Queen+PR is reality now gotta deal wit it whether u like it or not It's absurd: there's no need to "deal with it". We can simply be absent from the concerts or write our complains on queenzone. If you don't like them you can try ignoring those kinds of posts and move on. > Freddie is gone And as he said in 1977 (and several other times the other three), if one of the four, anyone of the four, left the band, that'd be the end of Queen. Therefore, if Fred's gone, Queen're gone. The new band is something else, stealing the name of Queen. > but the others are NOT and dont have to sit around for the rest of their lives wondering what could have been. They can tour with another name :) |

They picked a singer to play some shows with, and they know the Queen name is big enough to sell itself. Devoted fans will come to the concerts, and again, decide for themselves if they like whoever they're collaborating with. |

So to be frank, the rest of the band only knew his true persona in the early days and occationally during parties or whatever during the course of Queen's career. |
