Queen, Freddies replacement!!
I just heard on the news today that Queen (the band, not her maj!!!) have got a new singer to go on tour with them next year. He is the guy from Free who sang 'All Right Now', I can't remember his name.
I'm not sure about this myself. I can't imagine anyone taking Freddies place.
Any thoughts anyone?

Re: Queen, Freddies replacement!!
You can't mean Paul Kossof because he died a long time ago. What's the other guy called?
I can imagine one person taking Freddie's place but I can't remember his name. He fronts a tribute band which I think is called "Mercury".

Re: Queen, Freddies replacement!!
There will only ever be one Freddie Mercury...he was unique in what he did...

Re: Queen, Freddies replacement!!
I would go and see them, but it wouldn't be the same without Freddie Mercury. He was a true showman.

Re: Queen, Freddies replacement!!
The guy we saw this summer wasn't bad. Anybody who would like to see a (very poor quality) video clip just let me know.

No, Willow not Paul Kossof, I just looked on the web, it's Paul Rodgers.

Re: Queen, Freddies replacement!!
There is an excellent Queen tribute band called GaGa. They don't dress up, just sing, the front man is amazing.My husb & I have seen them many times.

Re: Queen, Freddies replacement!!
Just watched the video clips kindly sent to me by willow and I must say the guy is doing a fantastic job and although he will never be Freddie he's definately not a bad substitute. I love Queen and I would definately pay to watch this guy...
