Queen recruit singer for new tour

What do you think of this? I really do not think this band can do anything with the same feel without freddie.

It might be a great show but simply not the best, it will almost be liek seeing a tribute band.

No one can replace Freddy, he's to music what Baby Jesus was to mankind........

Freddie was the ultimate show man. Their isn't another man alive that could replace him.

They haven't even got John Deacon playing Bass for them any more. It seams to be just a way for Brian and Roger to make more money from the greatness that was Freddie.

Spot on.

Can let Band Aid slide because while they are doing the old regurgitate old stuff tactic the proceeds are going to charity. Queen will be, as some one else said, like a tribute band without Freddie.

Pretty poor really as all of the group have written hits for Queen not just Freddy and Brian. The only person who vocally can come close to him is George Michael. He may not be the same force on stage but he could sing the songs.

This bloke hasn't got the range. How will he be able to handle songs like Somebody to Love!?

Paul Rodgers former Free and Bad Company front man imo a very fine singer ,but will never replace Freddie but hey if they want to play and go live, remember that they will be doing Pauls stuff as well as Queen and maybe some new .Lets give them a chance and see waht they are like 1st might be good ,but probably been better if they had called themselves somthing else...

:whistle like Bad Hair Day

come on lets come up wth a DF name with the best group name to be judged by lets say ABC man....and the winner gets come on DF think of a prize..Hows about a get out of ban card to be used once....:thumbs
