I never saw them myself, i was disappointed with what i saw on the TV, but a mate of mine went to see them at Wembley and had a duff seat in front of a pillar - when he tried to see round it he had an altercation with security staff when they "asked" him to move. He never did say what the music was like - i think he went off to the bar!

I saw them on both the 2005 and 2006 tours and was very impressed both times.  The setlists were interesting and the musicianship was on par with Queen of old.  There is the one very important fact that Freddie and John are gone...which makes it a little less amazing in the long run.  Still a great show...a very BIG show...proving that 70's stadium rock isn't completely dead!

I've not seen them but the double CD is amazing. There are very few people who could step into Freddie's shoes (obviously no-one could replace him) but Paul Rodgers does a great job. I enjoyed hearing the Free / Bad Company tracks with the Brian May sound. It's all good. Better this than 'no more Queen'.

I was never interested in this obvious money-spinner.  I think Brian May should have stuck to his pledge that Queen was over when Freddie died.  That's just my opinion.
