sled Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 I think it's about time Sven gave Barry another chance. I think DOL should have been given money for a decent striker to accompany Angel. Oh, and Blue Stilton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pelle Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 Ballet to the masses? Please explain? I guess Opera to the masses, but Ballet? Don't take that so serious. What happened was that in 1976-77 they recorded the News of the world-album right next door to Sex Pistols and they got to talk sometimes. One time Sid Vicious, probably drunk and high, came into the Queen-studio and said to Freddie sitting with his back to the door: "Hey, Fred! Brought ballet to the masses yet?" to which Freddie turned around and answered: "Ah, mr Ferocious! Well, I'm trying my best, dear." True story quoted by Roger in an interview and also quoted in a Queen-book I've got. Or 2. So, that's all behind my quote about bringing ballet to the masses. On a side note, Freddie did appear in a ballet once in the early 80's I think it was. Anyway, back OT, Queen was the ultimate shite. :nod: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bickster Posted January 9, 2009 Author Moderator Share Posted January 9, 2009 Better at being shit or just better? Better at being shit, the Beatles being more shit than Queen..........just Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trevor Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 I don't think Queen are sh*t at all. There early stuff was especially great. I could complie a huge list of sh*t bands and sh*t music before I got to Queen, but that would just be my taste. Not having a not sh*t option in the poll makes it a pretty sh*t poll Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blandy Posted January 9, 2009 Moderator Share Posted January 9, 2009 Better at being shit or just better? Better at being shit, the Beatles being more shit than Queen..........just Oh Bicks! how could you? t'other way round for me. The Beatles did about 3 songs that aren't utter arse, whereas.... mind you don't ask me to name them, as I'd struggle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bickster Posted January 9, 2009 Author Moderator Share Posted January 9, 2009 yes but you and I would argue all day about the closeness of the decision, we've done it on a train somewhere before, it really is a very fine line as to who is the most shit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wainy316 Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 Hard Rock cafe in manchester was having a launch party, my missus' workmate got us in. Saw them discuss the show, and then there was a chance for people booking large amount of tickets to go in the back and meet them. My missus' said 'yeah we're booking about 10' to the guy and they let us in. Got a sheet signed but missed the photo oppurtunity after. Wouldn't of been able to see me for all of Brian's hair anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrentVilla Posted February 25, 2009 Moderator Share Posted February 25, 2009 I love Queen and I'm not afraid to admit it. I believe very few people were put on this Earth to entertain people. Freddy Mercury was most certainly one of them. Sent down in a lazer beam, guarenteed to blow your mind. Apparantly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maqroll Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 Best thing they did was Under Pressure. Good showmanship, and Brian May has skill, but they never did anything for me, really. Very overated band. I didn't vote cuz I think they're better than shit, but not by much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjmooney Posted February 25, 2009 VT Supporter Share Posted February 25, 2009 A mate of mine is Brian May's cousin. He's got some quite bizarre family photographs featuring little old ladies and blokes in flat caps on the steps of a terraced house, grinning at the camera, and there in the middle of them - sure enough, Brian May. EDIT: My mate doesn't lke Queen at all, but he did say that BM is a sound bloke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
