 Queen + PR article in Rolling Stone

Queen Reign Supreme Once Again Thirteen years after their last album, and 17 years after the death of incomparable frontman Freddie Mercury, Queen are looking, once again, like champions of the world. With a new singer — Paul Rodgers, formerly of Bad Company and Free — a new album and a monumental tour covering 20 countries in 11 weeks, the band with the bestselling album in the history of the U.K. is making a dramatic return to the spotlight...

This might be the first sign of the apocalypse. Rolling Stone magazine
had something positive to say about Queen.

Queen Album News

From queenonline.com

This month’s Classic Rock (June 2008, Issue 119, Velvet Revolver Cover) runs with a 3 page piece that includes an interview with Roger, Brian and Paul Rodgers. Starting on Page 50 the guys openly discuss new tracks including ‘C-lebrity’, ‘Say It’s Not True’, ‘Call Me’, ‘We Believe’, ‘Whole House Rocking’ and the inclusion   of a cover version on the new album. QOL can now EXCLUSIVELY reveal that the cover is in fact ‘Runaway’, originally a hit for Del Shannon and that it WILL NOT now feature on the album, but will be used at some point as part of the new album promotion. Other points covered included where the album was recorded, using the Queen name, John Deacon’s involvement, the loss of Freddie, the new tour and that ‘this is probably the most rocking album Queen has made so far…there are also some beautiful, laid back moments.’

I really want to know who is in charge of designing Queen's album covers and promo items. I know one thing...I can do a hell of a lot better. Its a real shame...lets hope the new album kicks ass.

RIP Luciano Pavarotti

Luciano Pavarotti, an opera super star died Thursday at his home in Italy. He was 71.

Pavarotti, a native of Modena, Italy where my family is from, visited my home town of Highwood, IL in October of 1979. There he sang a duet with the mother of a friend of mine that I went to grade school with. To celebrate his visit, Pavarotti was made an honorary member of the Modenese Society.

He also sang at Holy Name Cathedral for Pope John Paul II who was visiting Chicago for the first time.

I just wanted to state that 70% of the message board members on queenzone really, really suck. Its amazing how no one can express an opinion on a discussion without someone ripping in to them and calling one another childish names. You know who you are. Grow up.

And then, when there is a good discussion going, some one will post something stupid out of no where like "Freddie is gay". WTF?

This show has been posted on the Share the Music section. Download it now!

I'm sharing a show in the flac format instead of mp3 so that some people wont jump off the top floor of a building. I believe this same show was shared on queenzone a few months back. So if anyone missed it, here is your chance to grab it. The quality is very good.

An interesting recording because it includes the announcement that the Mayor of Boston proclaimed that July 23, 1982 to be Queen Day in the city of Boston.

More Changes

Yup, I've made more changes to my site. I just cant seem to find a form that I like. We'll see how this works out. I'll be posting audio/video clips once in awhile as well as posting live shows. I'll be posting updates to the site on the right side, towards the bottom. I'll use this "Update" section of the left to post news, my opinions on anything Queen. And maybe I'll write a review or two.
