I haven't been to a Queen show, but I've seen 'em on tv a few times and heard a few songs with him on the radio. The first time I heard We Are The Champions on the radio with Paul Rodgers...after he sang the first line...I said they got the wrong guy, what the hell? I love Bad Company, got a few on vinyl and I crank 'em up every once in a while...but Paul Rodgers singing Queen songs? I really don't think he approaches it with a good attitude either. It just kinda bothers me, but I'd definately still see Queen with old Pauly, it's Queen we're talking about here. I saw Brian May play with his own band in chicago about 8 or 9 years ago and it was utterly amazing. He played a bunch of old queen songs, sang it beautifully. Played a lot of his own stuff too which sounded great, but everyone wanted to hear the Queen songs. It was just outdoors at a music festival with a relatively small crowd, really small actually. I think that's more what Queen was before Freddie died than they are now with the whole band together. You could just hear Freddie singing in the back of your head when Brian May sang those songs. Anyway, I could ramble on forever about how amazing Brian May is, good day.
