I'm probably not going to be able to make the Thursday marathon. It depends! Might be able to catch the film either Friday evening or sometime Saturday. My theater is becoming packed due to the enhance changes in the seats and other areas.

Damn! Huge loss in the rock world! RIP. His keyboard playing in rock music was extremely influential to many and being in one of the most legendary bands of all time doesn't hurt either.

Particularly liked that the setlist seemed to be harking back to 70s Queen, with a smattering of late-80s songs that Freddie wasn't able to perform live. So we got (a recording of) Flash as the intro music, followed by Seven Seas of Rhye, Keep Yourself Alive, We Will Rock You (fast). Dragon Attack turned up later (bit of a deep cut), plus a blistering The Show Must Go On.
Given Brian's comments here:

I don't think there's any doubt that there's going to be some sort of creative partnership going forward, be it more live dates or (what I'm really hoping for) an album.
I like what I'm hearing from Brian! I'm glad he's truly being the main guitarist this time around. As it should be!

I hate those people! Leave these families alone to mourn. Fuck off! They are a freaking cult.
#2726 Re: The Sunset Strip » QUEEN Discussion » 747 weeks ago
I saw a video recently where someone streamed about 15 minutes of pro shot footage of the Queen gig with Lambert in Italy I think for an AIDS benefit show and I was impressed. I'm not into Lambert either; but after seeing some of that footage, I saw something special. He wasn't replacing Freddie; but merely respecting one of his idols and singing the songs to the best of his ability; but without being a copy cat. I can respect as a fan of Queen. I don't know about an album of new material maybe a small EP of live performances with the profits going to charity. Seems like the logical thing that Brian & Roger would do with the legacy at the moment besides touring either with Lambert or other artists. Since the Paul Rodgers collab album didn't do well at all in terms of sales and reviews. I do see a ton of energy and fun that I didn't see or hear during the Paul shows; so that's good news! Hell, if the shows are becoming this good and catering to what fans like you & me want to hear, then Lambert can take the mic if he does it in this fashion. Respecting Freddie's legacy without tampering with the brand of the name and it's history either. Dr. Brian still has the talent with those guitar strings and with Roger Taylor there is still those sparks. Shame that John won't join in on the fun on bass. If more shows like a U.S. tour or full world tour happens down the road, then I may buy a ticket. Still thinking about it. If a new album does appear and has a good Queen sound to it then it may be welcomed by both the fans and the media.
#2727 Re: Guns N' Roses » Team Brazil Management Website » 747 weeks ago
This whole process that's going on with their management and doing this exclusive site is a waste of fucking time and money. Axl needs to get on this issue and address to the fans if there is music coming out or is this band going to tour for another few years. Management can't leave us in the dark now after the actual album they have been working on getting CD released for over a decade. We want new songs and a better updated website to assist with tour dates and other content. Either live albums or live videos need to be released one way or another to keep interest in the current Guns. This so called family is seriously taking advantage and just helping themselves.

Oh...dude! That trailer was amazing and I'm so excited.
Still have to wait about 3 and 1/2 months..dammit!
#2729 Re: The Sunset Strip » Sylvester Stallone's Son Dead (Westboro picketing funeral) » 747 weeks ago
That's absolutely terrible for what the Stallone family has to go through especially when Sylvester seemed to be happy promoting his new film. I can't imagine the pain he must be in dealing with the tragic loss of his flesh and blood. My thoughts go out to his family.
