Queen is a shell. A phenomenal shell. Van Halen is the only great band that has been able to succeed* with a new singer replacement.

* because I didn't like Van Hagar, but they still pulled it off. Genesis worked but it was promoting from within.

I liken the Queen thing to Motley Crue. They were sick of Vince, but they had to have Vince to survive. I know that is not an option with Queen, but Freddy is impossible to replace. And therefore, Queen is RIP to me.

This is like Avatar. If you haven't seen it, I don't think you can judge it. Again, I'm not saying he's Freddie Mercury, but it works well. -- nm - pmb Feb 19, 13:29 2
- Quick question because I don’t know the answer, are they doing new material or is it strictly a nostalgia project? -- nm - Super Daddy Princess Feb 19, 13:33 1
  - I haven't seen any new material, though I wouldn't be surprised if they do some at some point. - pmb Feb 19, 14:11
