Rogers to sing in Queen
Paul Rogers ...... ex Free and Bad Company is set to tour with Queen.
Never been into Queen myself but they have chosen well there. Rogers has to be one of the best British vocalists of all time. I'll be very interested to hear what they sound like

Why do you hate Freedom?
The US is marching backward to the values of Michael Stivic.

damn straight he is!

"I request permanent reassignment to the Gallic frontier. Nay, I demand reassignment. Perhaps it is improper to say so, but I refuse to fight against the Greeks or Macedonians any more. Give my command to another, for I cannot, I will not, lead an army into battle against a civilized nation so long as the Gauls survive. I am not the young man I once was, but I swear before Jupiter Optimus Maximus that I shall see a world without Gauls before I take my final breath."
Senator Augustus Verginius

Re: Rogers to sing in Queen
As I already stated, I was never a big fan of Queen and as for Freddie Mercury...either you like his voice or you don't, very much like Neil Young. However I cannot understand this 'no Freddie, no Queen' Was Queen a solo act? Hasn't Brian May been mentioned a few times in various threads?
We may not like it but nothing lasts forever and considering the other band members are enthusiastic about touring with Paul Rogers as singer, maybe Queen lovers ought to be at least a little happy that their band hasn't just disappeared.
The Thin Lizzy that Toga has described ( pure raw energy btw ) were a new line up of the original band and as for Rogers...Free changed its appearance in just a few short years. Brian Jones of the Rolling Stones, Keith Moon of the Who also died. Rogers has experienced the loss of a band member also with Paul Kossoff dying at a young age.
I mentioned Tons of Sobs earlier....Paul Rogers and the rest of Free at a tender age. Another great album is one he made with Jimmy Page....the Firm
