Obviously Brian May, with his science degrees. And I assume the other is John Deacon nomorenomore08 Apr 2014 #5
Yeah, I wondered about the car song. Makes Roger sound kinda stupid, even though he's a good drummer Manifestor_of_Light Apr 2014 #8
I know he's covered Queen songs before, so he might not do too shabby of a job. nomorenomore08 Apr 2014 #9
Get ready for a long night (in a good way that is). I've never seen him but his sets still often nomorenomore08 Apr 2014 #6

All kidding aside, prepare for a long one. Drink plenty of water ahead of time (but not so much that you'll be in the restroom all night.
Carbo load with some starches like pasta for energy.


Have fun

I'm going to see 1/2 of Queen this summer!!! (As if you couldn't tell--the really smart half)

Let's hear it for GEEZER ROCK!!!

I saw bruuuce on the Darkness on the Edge of Town Tour in '78 and in 2000.
He always puts on a good show!

John Deacon retired and doesn't say anything anymore.He's an understated bass player who never gets in anyone else's way. He always plays in the spaces between the other guys.

The tour this summer is billed as "Queen + Adam Lambert".

It's Brian May and Roger Taylor. Adam Lambert is some kid who was on American Idol, that I as a geezer rocker don't know about.

You'd figure almost anyone would have to be a better fit than Paul Rodgers. WTF were they thinking?
