I found out today that my history teacher is 60 as well, and he shuffles everywhere. I can't imagine Freddie as a shuffler, he'd still be prancing around (although not to the same extent as he did), but I really believe he'd have to be at least in his 70's before he slowed down. My nana for example, in her late 60's, but she dances to the Bee Gee's better than anyone else. Freddie would be like that.

Freddie would have looked like an adorable old man (not when he was 60, but maybe 80). Old men are so cute!!!

i think he'd be one of those really elegant, refined old men. the kind where you point and say, "i want my man to be like THAT when he's older.":)
I think Freddie would be near bald. With some grey hair on the sides of his head. He would devinatly be a little heavier. But probably not much, if he was still touring that is. (If they would still be touring every year I think Roger wouldn't have gone heavy either)
When I was in India last year on my holidays we were taken to a craft shop. The salesman giving the talk was so like Freddie it was funny!
Around 60, greying hair, grey moustache, slightly protruding teeth, sallow complexion, and similar gestures... maybe he faked his death and went back to India to sell crafts!
If Fred hadn't got AIDS, he'd have continued his party lifestyle, substance abuse and surely died of a heart attack just last year, so we'd still be having this discussion. But at least the others wouldn't have toured with Paul Rodgers...that's something.
If I’m not mistaken Peter Freestone once mentioned that Freddie didn’t have a single gray hair on his had. He also said that whenever Freddie’s thinning heir was pointed out to him, he would quickly attribute this “illusion” to the fact that he was double-crowned.
Otherwise, he always looked younger than his age and I think, same would be the case should Freddie still be amongst us.
