    Queen live in Kharkov, Ukraine.

    I have recently had the rare opportunity to see Queen live. They played in Kharkov, Ukraine on September the 12th. I was in the right place at the right time for a change. I didn't see any JBL gear there but the sound was pretty good. They played outdoors to a crowd of 350,000! Never in my life have I seen such a spectacle. Freddy even managed to sign a few songs. Anyone that is interested can check out Brian Mays website at, http://www.brianmay.com/brian/brianssb/brianssb.html

    Doesn't seem like almost 17 years, though

    Freddie Mercury (born Farrokh Bulsara; 5 September 1946 – 24 November 1991)

    Looks like Paul Rodgers is the new Freddie

    Paul Rogers did "fill in" for Freddy. He isn't 5% of what Freddy was but he did an ok job. At least he didn't try to be Freddy. The guys did Bijou, Bohemian Rhapsody and one or two others with Freddy on a backing track with audio and video synced to the live music. They played for two and a half hours without a break so we really got our monies worth.
