Great info, thanks.
Been a while I think - welcome back.

thanks, yeah I was on the FAD website and saw "Forum" at the top and was like "I wonder if my login still works..." and it did.

[Aviatrix]

Yeah, I did the same today. I know it’s been a few months, that’s better than a few years, but thanks to Jason, I’ve really appreciated your posts on Freddie and the rest of the band. Thanks, Jason!

[Jason]

No problem

I’ve been suffering from the aftermath of a near-fatal bout of COVID contracted in July. I’ve had two back-to-back hospitalizations from July 29th to October 13th, 7 weeks of which were in ICU. COVID has been terrifying for me. As bad as the days were, the nights were even worse as I had little distraction and my husband and daughter couldn’t visit. Thank God I had Queen’s music with me. It transported me back to happier times. I’m thankful for that!

There’s a YouTube channel called Goldrush Paranormal, in which a man conducts a Spirit Box session with Freddie. It sounds like Freddie but who knows if it actually is him. It’s very interesting and I invite others to view it to get their take on it.

It’s good to see you, Jason!

2 years late, but just seeing this now. Just checking to see if my log in still worked, lol. Heard this place will be torn down fairly soon, just popped in to have one last look around.

It's not going anywhere.

[Jason]

It's not going anywhere.

may wanna triple check with the "Boss" on that.

Jason, having talked personally with Scott, and our Webmaster Josh, he does not want to get rid of the site, so unless you hear it from Scott himself, which he would contact Josh and I first, then no the site isn't going anywhere. I am the one also keeping it open. Also let's stay on topic this is a thread about Freddie Mercury not the status of Find a Death.

[JimC]

Thanks for that.
Back OT - I think Freddie was hands down the best showman to take a stage thus far.
Sadly for me, I didn't really listen to them or appreciate them back in the day - it was a circumstance of the times - lots of the music coming out then just wasn't what I liked so I kind of tuned all of it out for a long time.

[pkstracy]

Jim, I agree with you, Freddie was amazing, I did listen to them back in the day, and I was 18 when he passed and it devastated me/

[Jason]

To get back OT, anyone check out "Face it alone" yet?

My dad had the GH tape so I grew up on Queen. I know people still pay to see it but what passes off as them now is laughable. I have nothing against Adam Lambert and do think he can sing but no one can do the songs justice like Freddie did. Maybe if John was still in the band then it wouldn't be too bad but as it is...it's a pass. It's like being excited to go see Lynyrd Skynyrd when Gary was the only original member left...it's just not the same and you are as well going to see a tribute band.

I think the only person i have heard do justice to Freddy was George Micheal. He was totally underrated.
I heart Freddy and Queen. When I was a kid, on Saturday mornings my Mom and I would turn on the stereo and get our weekly house work done (Mom is kind of a clean freak), and occasionally she would get out her small collection of her old records and fire up the record player. One of her old records was Queen. It was honestly completely like “one of these things is not like the others” in her record collection, but I loved it!

Oh yes, I love Marc Martel too! They really missed the boat on this guy. i like Adam in his own right but not doing Queen music.

Yes I highly agree they totally messed up, I know they got Adam because he is a showman like Freddy was, but yeah no not singing Freddie's songs. Welcome back by the way !
