Eliza posted these news in another thread (Thank you!) so I thought it would be nice to open a different one for it. Here's the original post from queenzone's member mrjordy:
Hey everyone! Just came by to tell you that I went to the Paul Rodgers concert near Atlanta, GA on Friday, the 13th. First off, Paul looks great. He was wearing the same pants from ROTC with a tight white t-shirt. Looked like he'd been seriously working out. The concert was wonderful and Paul sounded fantastic, vocally. Really hit some high, high notes. Solid. Ok, anyway, this venue was really jazzy. Very nice. There was an open-air lounge/bar to the left of the seating and there I ran into a guy wearing a backstage pass. So I approached him...
...Turns out he's Paul's lighting engineer. The same lighting engineer for the Q+PR tours. Very chatty guy. I asked him if he'd be returning for their next tour. He told me that yes, he would. Naturally my next question was "when does the tour start?" His answer was this:
"THE NEXT QUEEN AND PAUL TOUR? THE BEGINNING OF NEXT YEAR. THEY DON'T WANT TO GET BURNED OUT ON TOURING, SO THEY'LL BE BACK ON THE ROAD IN EARLY 2008."
The guy went on to tell me that he is working for Paul on his current US tour, has three weeks off and is then working with LL Cool J on his upcoming tour. He'll then again have time off, after which he'll resume work with Queen + Paul Rodgers. So, I guess if we keep up with the LL Cool J tour, we can sort of from the last date when the next Q+PR tour might kick off. Can't wait!
