I don't know why I'm posting it (maybe because it's late and i'm in this strange mood ), but here it comes (and it's long)....
It has came to my mind... How did Brian's www page look before?
Well... There's this page: web.archive.org which you can check every page just copy the link to the Wayback Machine.
And here's, how Brian's page look like in (for example):
Dec 12, 1998
Feb 08, 2004
Jan 02, 2005
Of course, there are also archived old Brian's opinions or comments like:
and I didn't know the bits about Roger...!!
So now, let's see how www.roger-taylor.net/ has changed...

And I'm curious is it the first version of this page? When did you start this page Brigitte? And what induced you to make this page?

PARTY AT THE PALACE BROADCAST 31 DEC 02
Ed: The Party At The Palace last night was heavily edited (not the same as DVD) as BoRhap was in it. HURRAH!!!!!! FOR THAT. Did you see transmission ?
Reply from Brian:
"I saw it - looked good on the whole - - but they could have got rid of the bits where Roger obviously had no idea what was going on. The problem was this: Roger originally said he would perform on the opening - but as the time drew nearer he said he thought it was 'my thing' and he should stay out of it. Then on the day before the show he decided he WOULD play after all. But Ray Cooper had spent 3 hours rehearsing it with me and recording the backup which never got used (hurrah!) - plus 2 hours more, helping me through the crisis I had about NOT being able to play it !!! So Roger, with NO rehearsal, was bound to be noticeably bewildered. Oh well .... thank God - it could have been so much worse!!! It still makes me sweat to watch it - I have NEVER worked so hard preparing for a performance in my life.
It's worth noticing that since the BBC used the original (LIVE) mix of Joe Cocker's song for this transmission, and not the remix someone did for the CD - you could HEAR MY GUITAR !!!! So I liked it!!
Love B"
