Queen+ SP Facebook group...

Paul was perfect with them and I'm really sad they seem to be at the end, but I'm really thankful I got to see them. I really can't imagine anyone else fronting them.

I LOVE Paul Rodgers dude, but JSS is 20 times better for Queen. Seriously, it isn't close. Had Soto not been in Journey, I bet my asscheeks he would have been asked to at least audition for the Queen gig.

I too think Paul Rodgers is one of the greats of all time. However, he was totally wrong for Queen, i think JSS would be awesome in there.
Furthermore, the Cosmos Rocks is a terrible, tired album that just wallows.

[Ehwmatt]

Gonna tow the company line here and agree... I heard one or two Paul Rodgers+Queen songs and a bunch of covers of the original stuff. Not even close to feeling it. Paul was great in BC, Free, and on his own (The Firm blew ass)... here... not so much. Haven't heard JSS do much Queen either, but he's probably pretty cool doin that shit.

I can't picture Steve Perry singing for them. I actually think George Michael is a better fit.

Neither can I. As much as me loves Perry, I can think of a much better candidate for fronting Queen!

Hmm. Now who could you possibly be referring to?

And I agree... that would be pretty dang cool.

Yep! www.youtube.com/watch?v=J83wdhVmkVI Performs at least 40 Queen songs on that dvd!

Would be awesome if they continued with JSS.

[joonrock]

I had a feeling everyone would opt for JSS. The only problem to me is that Queen fans don't seem to have the same respect for him as you guys do. The forum on Queenzone.com have pretty much all said bad things about him. I think Brian would be up for it, but I'm not sure about Roger Taylor... They had their chance to hire JSS as far back as 2002 when they played with him, and they didn't. There maybe some reasoning behind that. Dunno.

[Jubilee]

I dunno. I have hard time imagining Perry & Queen together, especially now. Maybe 15 - 20 yrs ago, but now? How would that work out logistically? Not to mention assuming Queen is still interested in touring, Perry has expressed a bit of trepidation whereas touring is concerned. With all due respect, does Queen really want a 60 yr old frontman? I would think they would want to go with someone who is younger, not soured on touring, and not likely to try to "grab the reigns" and take them in some new direction...but that's just me.

This is absolutely Soto's gig to lose. That has to be his. Brian May isn't stupid, JSS is big over there, and they have chemistry and respect.

This is as easy as it gets folks.

OMG that would be awesome.....might have to fly to Europe...

Hey dipshit, Queen is of Euro roots but they'll play here too.

[verslibre]

George Michael has a helluva voice and can do justice to that catalog, but.........

Dude has a thing for parks, public johns,strange dudes and jizz in his rear end. Would May tolerate this shit? I guess Freddie had a thing for tubesteak in his tailpipe too, but last time I checked, he wasn't roaming public restrooms looking for new cocks. How does Jeff fit in here? Will he have to adopt and learn how to play another dudes meat straw?

Beef whistle? Uni-hole piccolo?

Hey, Deanoboy, well then I may have to fly somewhere in the USA to see them....maybe CA...

AND don't call me names, you must respect your elders LOL

[Peartree12249]

There has been a facebook group started that is trying to get Steve Perry into Queen. Paul Rodgers announced last week that he is done with Queen after their awful flop that was their debut album. What are your opinions?
If you like then join the group.... Rumour has it that an email has been sent to Brian May about it.
Olly.

Why?

[verslibre]

If anybody should sing Queensongs, it should be a certain vocalist who recently left a certain Canadian band after three decades. His voice has really held up over the years and I believe he's covered a Queen song or two in the past.

ALMOST! in a few more years I might be! but I still know how to party and play.

I also cant picture Steve Perry with Queen. Just a totally different style of music than Journey. Steve has a gift with singing power ballads and softer rock songs, cant picture him singing harder rock and glam rock.

"Edge of the Blade" anyone?

I do see what you're saying, but we mustn't forget his ability to lay down a hard rock track.

Adam Lambert?

I think he'd be great. A perfect match.

He does a great job on the ballads, and I love his version of Radio Gaga on the dvd, does an awesome job on it. No youtube for the dvd version, but here's one with Tempest last year.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2OwJy2UWYZs

I'd take a stab and say Michael Sadler of Saga.

Perry isn't gonna be a fucking cover singer and Soto wouldn't drum up enough interest to fill up a telephone booth. Queen, without a big name like George Michael, is done.

Well, I have nothing else to do here while I LISTEN to the Pens play hockey And it's a good freaking game too!!

[journey361]

It does not matter anyway if what HH says is true about SP. I mean, you can only relax and go to ball games for so long. He has to know how much people want him to sing and i'm sure he has to hear it from every source. How long has it been for him recording wise like 15 years. I prey i'm wrong, it all makes since though.

I'd go see them with George too. Oh and I think I remember you (I think it was you, lol) said you'd see George live too and what you would do before going

Arnel replaced Steve Augeri and Soto, and was a step up from them. Soto would be a step down from Paul Rodgers. If Paul Rodgers, and his massive built in fanbase couldn't save Queen, Soto sure as fuck isn't going to. Soto will not be offered the gig.

That's quite a stretch, especially considering YOU just mentioned Augeri who ALSO drummed up enough interest.... I don't know if he'll be offered it or not, but that's an unfair assement since they DID consider him at one point.

Besides, what is this "saving queen" stuff. Did they need "saved"???
