I decided that this article would be better put here than to put it into the news section. I believe it's gossip until I have the ticket in my hands.... VegasBeat -- Timothy McDarrah: 'Rock' debut sparks tour talk VegasBeat appears Sunday through Friday in the Las Vegas Sun. WEEKEND EDITION (sneaked from www.brianmay.com) July 3 - 4, 2004 Expect quite a Queen-sized promotional blitz surrounding the August opening of "We Will Rock You" at Le Theatre des Arts at Paris Las Vegas. The two biggest news items surrounding the opening should be the release of a retooled greatest-hits album and the first Queen tour since the death of frontman Freddy Mercury in 1991. "A tour would be the next thing for us to do after the show opens. It has been awhile," Queen guitar player Brian May told VegasBeat during a recent conversation. Drummer Roger Taylor added that Mercury would not be replaced. "Brian and I are both vocalists as well. But we'd certainly have friends of ours join us onstage from time to time to sing. George Michael, Elton John, folks like that."Bass player John Deacon, who wrote such Queen classics as "Another One Bites The Dust," is "more into his privacy than public appearances" these days, May said. But both he and Taylor expressed hope that he'd join them for a limited tour. The greatest-hits album is slated for an Aug. 17 release, the day after the production show debuts at Paris Las Vegas.

I was afraid it was a rumour only and Brian already replied on it on this soapbox saying that these "quotes" are NOT genuine. Next thing after Vegass is the concert in Benidorm (still thinking about going there...) and the openings in Moscow and Cologne (where I live! : .

It's a shame Brian has to put out our little glimmer of hope isn't it? Oh well back to dreaming then

Next thing after Vegass is the concert in Benidorm (still thinking about going there...) and the openings in Moscow and Cologne (where I live! : . OK, Benidorm is postponed/cancelled. But there's still the possibility to attend this 45 min. concert in Moscow for 1.000 USD/ticket (Well, I do hope that *this* is a rumour). It's a shame Brian has to put out our little glimmer of hope isn't it? Oh well back to dreaming then Yes, back to dreaming!
