Paul rocked the house last night in Connecticut! Set List: Closer Rock Steady Running with the Pack Simple Man Good Loving Gone Bad Radioactive Satisfaction Guaranteed Silver Blue and Gold Bad Company Fire and Water Little Wing Feel Like Making Love Shooting Star Rock & Roll Fantasy Can't Get Enough Encore Saving Grace All Right Now 2nd Encore Ready for Love The house went crazy when Paul opened with Closer from The Firm. Maybe Queen and Paul Rodgers could use it their set. |

as good as paul was. His band was utter crap. He must have known Brian and Roger and bring his songs so much more to life and add craftsmanship to them. After listening to Brian and Roger playing his songs many times, tonight sounded like a tribute band. I hope he uses his noodle and finishes these dates and gets back with brian and roger. |

To say that the band was "utter crap" is being a bit harsh don't you think? You're comparing second tier musicians to argueably the greatest guitar and drum players of them all! Paul was in grande form and I was fortunate enough to be standing right at the stage!!! I wish I was that close in Worcester, I would've damn well pissed myself! My only disappointment were the 2 idiots who started a brawl towards the end of the show about 3 rows back from center stage. Cheers! |

Lovely set--SBG and Shooting Star are my favs and would have loved to seen live...sniff.;-( |
| roxxanne61 21.05.2006 18:33 |
I was right at the stage also...left hand side, and had the pleasure of shaking Paul's hand... I dont think the band sucked or was crap. I think people are comparing them to Queen and thats not fair Paul was definitely in his element doing his own material and seemed to be having a blast! It was my birthday and I bought these tickets as a gift to mysllf...what a THRILL!!!!! I loved silver blue and gold the way he performed it last night....It was all amazing...Rock n Roll Fantasy, Shooting Star, Feel Like Makin' Love...he was ON...smiling, dancing awesome.... i would see him again in second, and i also have to give kudos to Cynthia who was very gracious and talked to all of Paul's fans, a very very nice woman Great night! |

| wstüssyb 21.05.2006 20:32 |
After all it is a solo tour...maybe he wants the band to be sub par some what so he can shine more :) |

oh my God...i got to go backstage, to his dressing room, and i met him after the show. it was UNBELIEVABLE. say what you want about him "replacing" Freddie, none of which i agree with, but he is an incredibly talented performer, and one of the nicest people i have ever met. |
| stateside fan 22.05.2006 01:36 |
Ya know-kudos to Paul for what he did for us,Bravo!!,But to sit thru a set of PR only stuff with b grade session players,i will pass.After watching King Freddie wow audiences its is difficult to groove to a 60 year old man in a muscle shirt singing under key and cutting high notes.Paul as QPR YES..anything else must say no. |
| teleman 22.05.2006 02:00 |
Too f*cking funny. Queen fans complaining about Paul Rodgers doing a solo tour. He can do whatever he wants. If he decides not to play with Q+PR good for him. If he decides to play with Q+PR again good for him. If he does solo tours with musicians who aren't Brian and Roger(therefore they must be second rate) good for him. If he decides to go busking on Granville Street in Vancouver good for him. It's his life, his career and his choice. I'm embarassed to call myself a Queen fan when I see the crap some Queen fans spew. |

Just a thought to those complaining- well you could say the same thing about Roger Taylor's and Brian May's solo tours and the "second rate" musicians who played with them and the venues!!! In 1999 Roger Taylor played in dumpy-dirty clubs that held no more than 500-1000 folks--He wanted to be with his fans and we had a great time...I would have much preferred to have seen him in a Casino venue....enough said!!! |

"Take Love" wasn't played? It seems that PR thinks of this songs as a proper(the first) Queen+PR song!! |

i love how people are complaining that Paul will do anything for money. Correct me if i'm wrong, but isn't this his career? i wouldn't expect him to be doing it pro-bono. and the fact of the matter is, the tickets really weren't nearly as expensive as Queen + Paul Rodgers. $44 were the most expensive. i would have paid twice as much for the quality shows this man puts on. |

I admire someone who goes out and earns his living. I would see Paul anywhere within driving distance. He impressed the hell out of me and I'd be happy to support his solo ventures. |

Heavy Load was also in the setlist. It's also been reported that he is testing the water in rehearsals...trying to fine-tune both Be My Friend and even a few Queen songs... |

To be honest, I'm not a big fan of the casino, I like the slots that I play at https://onlineslotsx.com/casino-bonus/ It's easy, it can be fun, and it can be useful if you get one good episode, as it happened to me. I can confidently say that slots are a way to get a lot of fun, and at the same time you need only a few cents. It is also a great way to keep yourself busy in your free time. I advise everyone to play and I can say that you will definitely not be disappointed. |
| Freddie4L 16.07.2020 16:18 |
Personally, I really like playing casino. It brings me a lot of fun! But to be honest, it’s not very convenient for me to pay with fiat money in most online casinos, since most of my assets are concentrated in cryptocurrencies, or more precisely, in bitcoin. So I started looking for online casinos where you can pay with Bitcoin. You can find out about such casinos from this article: https://casinocanada.com/payments/bitcoin/ |
| JordanAndrews 24.07.2020 10:09 |
I was there one time at another concert but anyway I liked it a lot. And I tried to gamble a little. I liked the process, but all that smoke and the crowded room was not my cup of tee. So then I decided to gamble at online casinos as it was much more convenient. To find the best online casino, I used the Australian review site https://aussiebestcasinos.com/paysafecard-casino/ as I don't trust some random websites where you can gamble. I found paysafecard casinos as I am always cautious with online payments, and this way is safe. So, this casino trip gave me a lot actually as I found a new hobby. |
