       Sheri                | I don't know.  Hollywood Records didn't 
                            | promote it at all when they released that 
                            | single the first 
                            | time here off of Brian's album.
       Bohemian Girl        | Hello...I'm back.
       Sheri                | I've heard about a minute and a half demo 
                            | version with Freddie singing.  It's very 
                            | good, but I like
       Ben                  | I hope Hollywood records will this time not 
                            | be tempted to include any of their own versios
       Kevin Shepherd       | I've heard parts of it w/Freddie and it 
                            | sounds good.
       Sheri                | (oops!) I like Brian's version 
                            | better--Freddie's emotion is more theatrical 
                            | while Brian's sounds 
                            | more from the heart...
       Kevin Shepherd       | I agree Sheri!
       Sheri                | I don't think Hollywood will include any of 
                            | their own versions.  They didn't with 
                            | Innuendo, only with 
                            | albums that were re-releases.  Also, we've 
                            | already heard that both the European and 
                            | Hollywood 
                            | versions will have 11 tracks.
       Rich  Williams       | Where did you hear those "demos"?
       Kevin Shepherd       | Sound clips from the internet.
       Ben                  | Could you give the Internet locations?? <g>
       BuB                  | AnD tHeY neVeR WAnT AgaIN....
       Sheri                | One demo has been "floating around" on 
                            | cassette for several years.  It's also 
                            | recently made it 
                            | onto a bootleg CD called Demories Please 
                            | Majesties.  The newer one that is on a 
                            | soundclip on 
                            | Internet isn't a demo, it is recorded from 
                            | the "Queen Phenomenon" DoRo video which was 
                            | already shown in Germany.

       Ben                  | Hi BuB, you found me...
       Rich  Williams       | Oh! I'll have to get me a download of them :)
       Ben                  | Thanks Kevin,

       Ben                  | Bye then BuB...
       Bohemian Girl        | <G>
       BuB                  | BuT nO One iS thErE so I'll StaY hERe.
       Ben                  | Sit still and behave then Bub!
       Sheri                | The site that Kevin just posted is *slow*, 
                            | slow, slow.  If you have problems, there will 
                            | be a mirror 
                            | site in North America set up by someone this 
                            | week....  I'll post that URL when it is made 
                            | available.
       BuB                  | YoU pEoPLE TeLnET?
       Ben                  | Any chance we could "borrow" these sound 
                            | checks and open them in this forum?
       Bohemian Girl        | Thanks Sheri...has a name been decided upon 
                            | yet 
                            | for the album?
                            | (to anyone)
       Kevin Shepherd       | Made In Heaven
       Sheri                | Yes, I thought I posted that.  It's going to 
                            | be called "Made in Heaven"
       Bohemian Girl        | That's what I heard...didn't know if it was 
                            | offical yet.
       Sheri                | It will be released worldwide on Nov 7th.  
                            | (Yeah, it's official now.)
       Kevin Shepherd       | Yeah, but I'm not sure I like it that much.
       BuB                  | HeY wAiT...WhAT aRe wE taLkIng aBOut hErE?
       Bohemian Girl        | What would you have rathered Kevin?
                            | I liked "As it Began" but since that's one of 
                            | the 
                            | queen book titles....
       Kevin Shepherd       | I'm not sure really.
       Sheri                | The cover to the album is going to show Lake 
                            | Geneva in Montreux with a silouette (sp?) of 
                            | Freddie on the far side, and of the other 
                            | three on the near side...
       BuB                  | GrEaT....I'm OuTTa HeRe.
       Ben                  | This material must be quite old...
       Bohemian Girl        | Bye BuB
       Ben                  | <g>
       Sheri                | I think I would have preferred a different 
                            | name, too.  I'm not fussy about names, but 
                            | this one does 
                            | sound a bit cliche...
       Bohemian Girl        | It does, a bit.
       Sheri                | Which material, Ben?
       Kevin Shepherd       | The Fan club mag. had some interesting ones.
       Ben                  | The picture for the album, and the main 
                            | content of the album, 
       Bohemian Girl        | Yes, I saw that KEvin.
       Ben                  | I guess that a lot of it has been 'wating' 
                            | for quite some time...
       Rich  Williams       | I know. I've been waiting 4 years for this 
                            | album! (So 
                            | has everybody else)
       Kevin Shepherd       | Do you remember your favourite?
       Ben                  | It's not too long a time.
       Sheri                | I'm sure the picture must have been a 
                            | composite.  The material is of varying ages.  
                            | Some songs 
                            | were recorded after Innuendo...
       Bohemian Girl        | Favorite what?
       Kevin Shepherd       | Title from the mag.
       Ben                  | The Video material, is any of it post-These 
                            | Are The Days Of Our Lives?
                            | Or is that still unknown <g>
       Bohemian Girl        | I can't even think of any let alone my 
                            | favorite.
       Kevin Shepherd       | I liked the Freddie Quote "It's Only A Bloody 
                            | Record"  but not for a serious title.
       Sheri                | I don't know, but I would say it's probably a 
                            | safe guess that any of Freddie is not after 
                            | that.  I 
                            | read something about one of the videos, but I 
                            | can't remember what it said.  :(    Freddie 
                            | was 
                            | terribly ill at the filming of TATDOOL, 
                            | though, so I doubt there were any later than 
                            | that.
                            | 8^)  That was a funny title!  (But definitely 
                            | not for a serious title...)
       Ben                  | Still a great video!
       Rich  Williams       | Typical Freddie quote! Humorous as always.
       Kevin Shepherd       | Does anyone subscribe to the QMS?
       Ben                  | QMS, yes, but don't always read it, it's 
                            | quite long!
       Bohemian Girl        | No <g> I have enough trouble keeping up with 
                            | my 
                            | own mail...
       Rich  Williams       | What is QMS?
       Sheri                | Yes, of course!  I keep the FAQ.  :)
       Ben                  | QMS, to quote:

       Bohemian Girl        | (and thank you Sheri for uploading it...oh 
                            | and 
                            | everyone else who uploaded in to lib)
       Sheri                | QMS is the Queen Mail Service on Internet.  
                            | It's an e-mail group rather than a newsgroup.
       Ben                  |  <g>
       Kevin Shepherd       | Had a feeling it was you Sheri!! (I'm Mayfan)
       Rich  Williams       | Oh! I always try to subscribe, but it says 
                            | that the 
                            | address is "not an internet address".
       Sheri                | Actually, if you want subscription info, I 
                            | can post it in our forum later.  The problem 
                            | is that there 
                            | is high traffic which is bad if you have to 
                            | pay for mail on CompuServe.
                            | If you'll give me your address, Rich, I can 
                            | subscribe you.  Kathy and I are the only two 
                            | who can 
                            | do manual subscribes...
       Bohemian Girl        | Mail is part of basic services, only the 
                            | connect time 
                            | getting it costs, now.
       Ben                  | QMS adds no more than a minute to my daily 
                            | venture into CompuServe.
                            | I think it's worth that...
       Rich  Williams       | Allright, Sherri. I'll write a "forum 
                            | message" to you 
                            | later. I seem to have forgotten my CServe 
                            | address!
       Sheri                | I don't use CServe much.  We got it a couple 
                            | of years ago, and Scott only uses it a bit 
                            | for 
                            | work-related downloads.  I haven't kept up 
                            | with billing info.  I only started using when 
                            | I found out 
                            | about this group from Ben...

       Bohemian Girl        | Speaking of Ben...Ben would you like to 
                            | mention 
                            | your t-shirt idea now?
       Ben                  | Ok then.
       Bohemian Girl        | (hello Leo)
       Ben                  | I work part time in a factory which makes 
                            | T-Shirts.
       Rich  Williams       | Thanks- I'm new here on CServe, haven't found 
                            | my 
                            | "way around" yet!
       Ben                  | I have the chance to make any shirts I like,
                            | and I thought it might be interesting to try 
                            | and make some for this forum.
       Kevin Shepherd       | Sounds like a great idea!
       Ben                  | If your interested then let me give you some 
                            | of the details...
       Sheri                | Yes, please do...!
       Ben                  | I can do any colour shirt
                            | (or hat, jumper, disk cloth etc...)
                            | on both sides.
                            | The images can be quite detailed, in many 
                            | colours, 
       Sheri                | ooooooh!
       Ben                  | although for my sake the fewer the better!
       Bohemian Girl        | lol.
       Ben                  | What I need is a GIF
                            | which can be photographically transfered onto 
                            | the shirts
                            | in true colour
                            | All I need is an image!!!
                            | Photo's are out,
       Sheri                | Are all photos out, or only copyrighted ones?
       Ben                  | but detailed images are okay, as long as it's 
                            | not too hard to align the colours.
       Sheri                | Oh, ok...
       Bohemian Girl        | We thought perhaps we could make this into a 
                            | mini 
                            | contest...best design gets put on the shirt.
       Ben                  | (copyright?  Well, this is between our 
                            | selves, and no body is making a profit...)
                            | Yup, and we could judge it our selves as 
                            | well...
       Bohemian Girl        | No photo but silouhettes would work, right?
       Ben                  | Yes, no problem.
       Sheri                | The Hot Space Silouhettes?
       Ben                  | No problem!
       Kevin Shepherd       | How many would you have to make (i.e. is 
                            | there a minimum)?
       Ben                  | What colour? <g>
                            | The number is not important, but it would be 
                            | a one off, so
       Kevin Shepherd       | Black T's
       Ben                  | best to get all you want this time!
                            | Black is okay, as long as I can get the raw 
                            | shirts easily...
       Bohemian Girl        | What size gif would you need?
                            | or resolution?
       Ben                  | The GIF woul need to be quite large, at least 
                            | 1000x1000
                            | but for the selection, a small one would be 
                            | fine!
                            | The colours are a max. of six per side,
                            | but any more than two gets complicated, so
                            | I would prefer (for personal reasons) if we 
                            | kept it low
                            | and that's the works!
       Sheri                | Yellow color, of course, Ben.  <g>
       Ben                  | Any yellow,
       Kevin Shepherd       | On a related topic. Sheri, have you ordered 
                            | from the fan club?
       Ben                  | If the colour needs to be exact, then you 
                            | would have to send me a copy..
       Sheri                | Yes, a number of times.  Through Adrian 
                            | Hopkins.
       Bohemian Girl        | So designs can be uploaded in library 21, and 
                            | we 
                            | can judge any time...Ben have a deadline?
       Ben                  | I have no time problems at the moment, 
                            | although
       Sheri                | Oh, that's ok, Ben.  It was just a further 
                            | comment on the shirt I said I wanted in your 
                            | talk 
                            | window... I'm just kidding...
       Ben                  | I have a 'good spot' between the 16th of 
                            | October to the end of that month,
       Kevin Shepherd       | About how long does it take to get the stuff? 
                            | How can you tell I'm anxious.
       Bohemian Girl        | Where are you Kevin?  It takes me about 4-6 
                            | weeks.
       Brian Yarosh         | Hello all.
       Bohemian Girl        | Hi Brian, welcome :)
       Ben                  | I can do it all in a day,
       Kevin Shepherd       | Toronto
       Sheri                | Hi Brian.
       Brian Yarosh         | Sorry I'm late
       Ben                  | And then postage...
       Bohemian Girl        | Probably about the same then, I'd assume, 
                            | Kevin.  
                            | No problem Brian.
       Brian Yarosh         | So what are we descussing?
       Bohemian Girl        | So what do you think it would cost per shirt 
                            | then 
                            | ben--total.
       Sheri                | If you order from Adrian Hopkins with Credit 
                            | card, it's usually very fast.  I'm in New 
                            | Mexico, and 
                            | I've had complete turn around in less than 
                            | three weeks if I pay that way.  New Mexico 
                            | isn't 
                            | exactly well known for getting mail quickly, 
                            | either...
       Ben                  | Postage to he UK would be about 2
                            | Postage to the US, what ever it cost me to 
                            | send that shirt to you,
                            | which I can't remeber!
                            | And another 1 for the cost of getting the 
                            | shirt.
       Bohemian Girl        | Right Sheri, I go by check.
       Sheri                | I'd guess about 3 or 4  GBP  for postage 
                            | based on what I've had sent to me from 
                            | friends in 
                            | London.  Sorry, no British pound sign, and 
                            | I'm sure # isn't acceptable...;)
       Ben                  | That sounds about right!
       Kevin Shepherd       | Yeah, but it took forever for my fan club mag 
                            | (over a month).
       Sheri                | Sometimes they send overseas fan club mags by 
                            | air, and other times they go by surface.  
                            | I've 
                            | had them take around two months to get here...
       Ben                  | Postage to the US, (air-mail) is under a 
                            | week, the delay is usually at this end!
       Bohemian Girl        | Oh before I forget, I posted a message 
                            | "Regular 
                            | CO?" in the message section, if you get a 
                            | chance 
                            | take a look at it before you sign off 
                            | tonight, thanks.
                            | I've had them not show up at all. :(
       Sheri                | Write Jacky if you don't get them... :(
       Bohemian Girl        | I have, and have then got them :)
       Sheri                | I wonder what happened to Sophie from Italy, 
                            | I know she was planning to be here.
       Kevin Shepherd       | Really late there isn't it?
       Sheri                | Yeah, but she was going to join in--she said 
                            | she doesn't work tomorrow...
       Ben                  | Sophie is quite a character judging from her 
                            | huge input to alt.music.queen!  
       Bohemian Girl        | Several other people have rsvp'd to me and 
                            | have not 
                            | shown...guess the weekend threw people off.
       Ben                  | Although I haven't been there for quite a 
                            | while...
       Sheri                | I haven't seen her post as frequently, but 
                            | it's hard to tell.  My news server is missing 
                            | about 40% 
                            | of the incoming posts.  :/
       Bohemian Girl        | Hello Vivian.
       Kevin Shepherd       | It has been a lot of talk about the the track 
                            | listing of the new record (speculation I 
                            | mean).
       VIVIAN ACINELLI      | hello
       Brian Yarosh         | If anyone is interested, I have many QUEEN 
                            | live concerts on VHS and CD. dates from 
                            | '75-'86.  
                            | Most purchased from Japan and Europe.  
       Ben                  | Have you got the Milton Keynes Boal concert??
       Sheri                | Are the videos on the European format (PAL) 
                            | or North American/Japanese (NTSC)?
       Ben                  | (One I want for personal reasons.)
       VIVIAN ACINELLI      | I think I'm in the wrong room. Sorry didn't 
                            | mean to interrupt.
       Bohemian Girl        | okay, bye...
       VIVIAN ACINELLI      | bye
       Brian Yarosh         | I have a show from 1977 Earls Court London on 
                            | NTSC VHS
       Sheri                | That's a good concert.  They showed it at 
                            | Queenvention a couple of years...
       Kevin Shepherd       | Okay, a bit off topic, but which is 
                            | everyone's fav. album?
       Brian Yarosh         | Where was the Queenvention?????
       Sheri                | It's hard to pick one favorite!
       Ben                  | BTW, (To Sheri and others,) Could I post the 
                            | album track list so far, as given today in 
                            | the QMS listing?
       Bohemian Girl        | I couldn't pick a fav.  A Day at the Races, 
                            | Sheer 
                            | Heart Attack and Queen II are probably a tie.
       Kevin Shepherd       | Mine is Queen II although I do love them all!
       Rich  Williams       | Innuendo, and A Day At The Races
       Brian Yarosh         | Another vote for Day at the Races and also 
                            | News of 
                            | the World.
       Sheri                | Sure, Ben.  I think at least one of those was 
                            | still speculation, though...
       Ben                  | Ok, this is the list so far, copied from QMS:

                            | Subject: New Album Track Listing (Update) 
                            | Okay, I count 7 songs so far:
                            |   1.  A Winter's Tale
                            |   2.  Mother Love
                            |   3.  (Am I) Dreaming
                            |   4.  (Take Another Little) Piece Of My Heart
                            |   5.  Heaven For Everyone
                            |   6.  Too Much Love Will Kill You
                            |   7.  Made In Heaven
                            | That means there's 3-4 more songs to go.  The 
                            | puzzle is almost complete... 
       Sheri                | Mine fave probably changes daily.  Though, if 
                            | we can count solo projects, I'd pick Back to 
                            | the 
                            | Light probably.  Hard to chose...
       Bohemian Girl        | Heaven for everyone sang by freddie or roger 
                            | (or is 
                            | this a new track)
       Kevin Shepherd       | I hope there are some faster, harder songs 
                            | with Brian or Roger singing.
       Brian Yarosh         | When is the new album hitting the states??
       Rich  Williams       | Nov. 7th
       Sheri                | The one listed as #4 is speculation.  They 
                            | played a clip of a chorus of a song at both 
                            | conventions 
                            | behind Roger and Brian's message to the 
                            | convention, and you could hear the words 
                            | "Take a 
                            | piece of my heart" but it could be a chorus 
                            | from a different song.
                            | Heaven for Everyone is going to have 
                            | Freddie's vocals from the version he recorded 
                            | with the 
                            | Cross, with new Queen music.
       Ben                  | Do we know how many of these are real 
                            | 'Queen'?  (I hope all, but I don'e know if 
                            | some of them might be 
                            | patched together from other stuff...)
       Sophie Crittin       | Good Morning from Switzerland !!!
       Bohemian Girl        | Hello Sophie :)
       Sheri                | Hi Sophie!  We were just wondering where you 
                            | were!
       Kevin Shepherd       | Good morning Sophie!
       Rich  Williams       | Good Morning, Sophie!
       Ben                  | Hi There!
       Sophie Crittin       | I'm just waking up. Here it's near 1:00 am.
       Kevin Shepherd       | What a trooper!!
       Sheri                | I'm not sure what you mean by "other stuff" 
                            | Ben...?  Do you count Heaven for Everyone as 
                            | patched together from other stuff since the 
                            | vocals were originally for The Cross?
       Ben                  | Same here, and in Metric by law now!  (That a 
                            | joke for all UK's here!)
       Bohemian Girl        | Patched songs like Shove It was for the 
                            | Cross??
       Sheri                | I read that your roads will still be in miles?
       Ben                  | I ment what we know and love as being Queen, 
                            | contributions from Roger, Brain, Freddie and 
                            | Deacon,
       Sheri                | Shove It was patched?
       Bohemian Girl        | That's what I'm trying to understand....it 
                            | had part of 
                            | BoRhap, Tie Mom, etc, didn't it?
       Sophie Crittin       | And We will rock you...
       Bohemian Girl        | right.
       Sheri                | There aren't supposed to be any vocals (lead 
                            | vocals) from "outsiders" if that's what you 
                            | mean.  
                            | Jacky did say that Kathy Porter was doing 
                            | something with backing vocals on some part of 
                            | it, I 
                            | think...
                            | Oh, that wasn't what I was thinking of as 
                            | patched, I guess...
       Bohemian Girl        | Oh. . . <g>
       Sophie Crittin       | will someone here go to the launch party on 
                            | october 29th ? Or Do you all come from USA?
       Sheri                | I don't know if Brian and Roger will have any 
                            | lead vocals.  Someone on QMS posted a press 
                            | release  a couple of weeks ago from somewhere 
                            | or other that said that all songs were 
                            | Freddie    
       Ben                  | I was soo fearing that somebody somewhere 
                            | might have been pushing just anything 
                            | 'queenish' that could be put together to make 
                            | an 
                            | inferiour album, that would undoutably sell 
                            | and make lots of money, without really being 
                            | QUEEN!  But I see there is nothing to fear
                            | !
       Sheri                | Many of the press releases are wrong.  Even 
                            | Hollywood's original press release was 
                            | wrong--it 
                            | said that there would be 10 songs when there 
                            | will be really 11. 
       Kevin Shepherd       | Canada here. I would LOVE to go, but alas ...
       Ben                  | Sophie, where is the party?
       Sheri                | Actually, the three of them didn't even all 
                            | agree on what should go on the album.  Brian 
                            | originally 
                            | wanted to just do an EP with the songs 
                            | Freddie recorded after Innuendo.  Roger and 
                            | John 
                            | wanted to use older material, too.  They 
                            | prevailed.
       Sophie Crittin       | The party is in London, at the Hammersmith 
                            | Apollo Theater. I sent a SAE to Jacky but for 
                            | the 
                            | moment I didnt receive anything.
       Ben                  | So, what are the three real Freddie songs 
                            | then?  (Sorry to ask, even I don't know 
                            | eveything!)
       Sheri                | There will be a party in the US in Detroit, 
                            | too.  Someone posted that you should send a 
                            | self
                            | addressed stamped envelope to Sandy and Kara 
                            | for details if you're in Royal Vision.  I've 
                            | got to 
                            | stop hitting return at the wrong time...
       Ben                  | Sophie, I'll see if I can meet you there then!
       Sophie Crittin       | Will you go Ben ?
       Kevin Shepherd       | Haven't joined yet.  Is RV good Sheri?
       Sophie Crittin       | I guess one of Freddie's songs is "A Winter's 
                            | tale"... But I'm not sure.
       Ben                  | I'lll try!  I can think of no reason why I 
                            | can't!  I'tt be a great place to get some 
                            | great photo's...
                            | No to mension a great time!
                            | See you all in 5 minutes...
       Sheri                | Um, three "real" songs?  They'll all be real 
                            | songs except the re-makes of Heaven for 
                            | Everyone 
                            | and Made in Heaven I think.  A Winter's Tale 
                            | and Mother Love (?) were recorded after 
                            | Innuendo 
                            | along with one or two more.  The thing is 
                            | that they mostly recorded Freddie's vocals, 
                            | and they've 
                            | gone in and done music to fit afterwards.
       Kevin Shepherd       | Has anyone ordered the new Boxed $et?
       Bohemian Girl        | Box set?
       Sophie Crittin       | I think it's "a little" expensive" About 400 
                            | sterling pounds.
       Sheri                | No, are you going to?  It's $o expen$ive--I 
                            | think I'm going to wait till the one a few 
                            | years down the 
                            | road that will have b-sides and such...
       Kevin Shepherd       | It has all the albums and is limited edition. 
                            | About $860 Canadian.
                            | Yes, I've ordered one!!
       Sophie Crittin       | Maybe a friend will give it to me for Xmas... 
                            | Let's dream...
       Sheri                | No extras, though, except for being in a 
                            | fancy box that can be hung on the wall.
       Sophie Crittin       | I heard that a shaped picture disc will be 
                            | released.
       Kevin Shepherd       | Isn't it going to be numbered and signed?
       Sheri                | You've ordered one?!  Wow.  I've spent *lots* 
                            | of money on Queen collectibles, but I just 
                            | can't see 
                            | getting this box set.
       Brian Yarosh         | signed by who??
       Sheri                | I don't know if there will be a vinyl shaped 
                            | disc, but there is going to be a limited 
                            | edition promo 
                            | shaped *CD*.  There are a few shaped CDs in 
                            | existence--they have to be careful to have 
                            | enough 
                            | points that touch the outside edge of the 
                            | circle...
       Kevin Shepherd       | The remaining members.
       Sheri                | Which will be signed?  The shaped discs or 
                            | the box set?  They said that only a few of 
                            | the box 
                            | set were going to be--one for auction and a 
                            | couple to be given away at the release party. 
                            |  At 
                            | least that's what I've heard.  Don't know how 
                            | reliable that is...
       Kevin Shepherd       | The only other "collectible" I have is the 
                            | "Queen Works" set on vinyl.  So I thought 
                            | what the heck!
       Sheri                | I don't have that.  I have lots of other 
                            | collectibles, though.  It gets to be an 
                            | expensive hobby...
       Brian Yarosh         | I have my record and CD collections insured 
                            | for $60,000 US
       Ben                  | Sheri, what's your best item? (If you don't 
                            | mind me asking..)
       Kevin Shepherd       | How rude! :-)
       Ben                  | English politeness...
       Sheri                | It depends if you mean best from a strictly 
                            | value standpoint or a sentimental standpoint. 
                            |  From 
                            | the sentimental standpoint, I'd have to say 
                            | an autographed vinyl copy of BTTL.  :)
       Sophie Crittin       | Sheri, if you were at the Convention, I think 
                            | you have got the "collectible" purple "Bo 
                            | Rhap" ? I 
                            | heard it was sold GBP 200.-- in an english 
                            | store
       Ross                 | Hi Folks ! - thought there might be a few 
                            | still here.
       Sophie Crittin       | Hi Ross.
       Bohemian Girl        | Hey Ross :)
       Kevin Shepherd       | Hi Ross!
       Ben                  | Hay thats pretty great!  Who's the autograph??
       Sheri                | Yes, I got one of those.  They're pretty!
       Ben                  | Morning Ross!
       Sheri                | Hi Ross.
                            | On Back to the Light?!  Brian, of course!!  
       Ben                  | (of course)  Sorry, I stop thinking stright 
                            | at 1am!
       Brian Yarosh         | Brian May has a great signature!
       Kevin Shepherd       | You met him right Sheri?
       Sheri                | And it's even better when you get it in 
                            | person!  :)
       Bohemian Girl        | I can't think straight and it's only 8pm here 
                            | <g>
       Ross                 | I met him and got his autograph in 1991
       Sheri                | Yes, Scott and I met him in Dallas.  (Scott's 
                            | my husband, BTW)
       Kevin Shepherd       | What a treat!!
       Sheri                | It was great!
       Ben                  | I almost met Roger once!  (Not quite as good, 
                            | but it's the best I've got!)
       Sheri                | :-)
       Kevin Shepherd       | I think I would be too elated to ask for an 
                            | autograph.
       Ben                  | One day..  There
                            | is still time!
       Ross                 | Was the new album the topic of the conference 
                            | tonight ?
                            | (or did it vary widely ?)
       Bohemian Girl        | No specific topic, but it was A topic :)
       Sheri                | Varied widely is a good description.  ;)
       Ross                 | I've been on a Jazz kick lately - played it 
                            | again today :)
       Bohemian Girl        | I'll upload the transcript tomorrow Ross.
       Sheri                | Uh oh.  We're being recorded for posterity?  
                            | :)
       Kevin Shepherd       | We better say something interesting.
       Brian Yarosh         | Is the Royal Vision address posted anywhere?
       Bohemian Girl        | <g>  Want me to put no comment next to your 
                            | name?
       Sophie Crittin       | Do you think that Roger or Brian or John are 
                            | Compuserve members ?
       Sheri                | Yes, the Royal Vision address is in the FAQ 
                            | that's in the Queen section of the library.
       Ross                 | Were there any George Michael questions at 
                            | the conference ??  ]:^)>
       Sophie Crittin       | No please... Pas George Michael...
       Kevin Shepherd       | NO!! pleeease. :-))
       Ben                  | Not yet, but I was just about to ask...
       Sheri                | Only your question just now!  Maybe Bohemian 
                            | Girl will put an asterisk next to *your* 
                            | entry.  ;)
       Bohemian Girl        | rofl.
       Ben                  | Apparently not then!
       Ross                 | <g>
       Ben                  | How about David Bowie and Nine Inch Nails for 
                            | a interesting colabouration!
       Kevin Shepherd       | Actually his job at the tribute impressed me, 
                            | but that was then ...
       Ben                  | (Not to get too far of the point or 
                            | anything!) <g>
       Ross                 | I've got tickets to NIN/Bowie in 2 weeks
       Ben                  | Bas***!!
                            | Where's that?
       Sheri                | Basket?  O:-)
       Ross                 | 12th row    :)
       Kevin Shepherd       | They just played Toronto. Apparantly it was 
                            | quite good.
       Ben                  | That's enough!!  I can't take too much...
       Brian Yarosh         | I heard that GM was singing on the new album.
       Kevin Shepherd       | Yikes!
       Sheri                | No, they've said that's a false rumor.  
       Ben                  | Can it be bought in 'edit'? <g>
       Brian Yarosh         | Well good.
       Ross                 | I wonder if I'll hear wither or both of Get 
                            | Down Make Love or Under Pressure
       Sheri                | If you cut his vocals, you'd have a good 
                            | Karaoke version.  :)
       Sophie Crittin       | In Europe, he released a greatest hits 
                            | compilation
       Ross                 | errr either
       Ben                  | It'll sound better!
       Kevin Shepherd       | No "big" numbers according to the reviews.  
                            | Nothing from the sound and vision tour.
       Sheri                | I'll just be glad when it's released and 
                            | there are no more rumors.  Some of the rumors 
                            | are getting 
                            | ridiculous.
       Ross                 | I agree, Sheri...
                            | sometimes I read Queen posts and just shake 
                            | my head.
       Brian Yarosh         | Is Brian May working on a new album to?
       Kevin Shepherd       | Wait though 'til the press get a hold of it. 
                            | I hate when they bad-mouth Queen.
       Sheri                | In one fan club mag, Brian said he'd been 
                            | working on it, but it was shelved to work on 
                            | the Queen 
                            | album.  I guess it will still be a while...
       Ben                  | BTW, to change the subject a little, I guess 
                            | that were all listening to Queen, anybody 
                            | like to admit what at the moment? <g> 
       Sheri                | There are already some articles out in Europe 
                            | badmouthing the new album before it's even 
                            | out.  
                            | Some things never change.
       Brian Yarosh         | If it is as good a Back to the Light, it will 
                            | be worth waiting for.
       Ben                  | It was always the same, and Queen always came 
                            | out on top...
       Ross                 | like I said - Jazz...

       Ross                 | Well Ben I've come back to Jazz after a long 
                            | abscense (sp ?)...
                            | I kinda favor Don't Stop Me Now these days.
       Brian Yarosh         | I am listening to a Live recording in Cologn

       Ben                  | Do you know the words to Mustapha yet? <g>
       Kevin Shepherd       | Dreamer's Ball here  (Brian's guitar)
       Sheri                | I'm listening to Innuendo, too...
       Ross                 | hmmmmmm, Ben you must have been reading my 
                            | posts elsewhere :)
       Sheri                | Do you know them, Ben?  Maybe you could 
                            | upload a sound-clip of your interpretation of 
                            | them?
       Bohemian Girl        | I have the Mustapha words on sheet music.
                            | (well from a book...)
       Ben                  | Did you MDI that one?
       Ross                 | Now that I'm not at work, I can get them from 
                            | my album sleeve :)
       Bohemian Girl        | No, Ben. Just songs from Greatest 1, 2 and 
                            | Innuendo.
       Sheri                | What's MDI?
       Bohemian Girl        | I assume you meant midi...
       Sheri                | Oh.  Sorry.  Duh.  :/
       Ross                 | I recorded the audio of Somebody To Love from 
                            | the video...
       Ben                  | BTW, I'm onto 'Spread Your Wings', just 
                            | noticing how fantastic the piano is on that 
                            | track, those were the days...
       Ross                 | We Will Rock You on my car tape...
       Ben                  | You have a terminal in your car?
       Ross                 | and have *really* been jammin on that song 
                            | the last few days.
       Sheri                | I was wondering the same thing, Ben...
       Bohemian Girl        | Hello Stevie.
       Ross                 | Brian's solo at the end is mesmerizing
       Sophie Crittin       | Hi Stevie
       stevie               | Hi, everyone.  New to the service, getting to 
                            | know my way around what to do.  Looks
                            | like this is the Queen Forum, seems like 
                            | these guys are popular? Heh?
       Sheri                | I got home from work the other day, and the 
                            | band at the High School at the end of our 
                            | street was 
                            | playing WWRY.  Great to hear that their music 
                            | is still known in the US, but I wonder how 
                            | many 
                            | of that band actually knew it was a Queen 
                            | song...
       Ben                  | WWRY?  These get confusing!
       Kevin Shepherd       | Hopefully it says so at the top of the sheet 
                            | music.
       Sheri                | We Will Rock You.  WWRY...
       Ross                 | they certainly are, Stevie
       Ben                  | Of course!!  One of Deacons best!
       Ross                 | <cough>
       Bohemian Girl        | You mean May...
       Sophie Crittin       | They are the most fantastic guys on this 
                            | little planet Stevie !!!
       Brian Yarosh         | John wrote a lot of great songs.
       Ben                  | Err, just checking...  
       Ross                 | <g>
       Kevin Shepherd       | Brian wrote WWRY
       Sheri                | It would probably say "Brian May" at the top 
                            | of the sheet music.  And I *know* people here 
                            | don't 
                            | know who Brian is.  Every time I wear one of 
                            | my Brian shirts, I have people say "Brian 
                            | who???" 
                            | to me at least a few times during the day.
       Ben                  | You may be right!  <g>
       Sophie Crittin       | I want to break free, Misfire, another one 
                            | bites the dust...
       Kevin Shepherd       | I know how you feel Sheri!!
       Ross                 | ooooooSophie - you left out his best....
       Sophie Crittin       | My god... Which one ?

       Sheri                | It was great being in the UK this spring!  No 
                            | one wondered who Brian May was, no one asked 
                            | if 
                            | my Queen shirts were "Queensryche" shirts 
                            | (yes, this has happened!) and there was an 
                            | abundance of Queen and Brian May music on the 
                            | jukeboxes.  And Roger's "Happiness" single 
                            | was one of the 15 or so songs in rotation in 
                            | the Chunnel.
       Ross                 | in fact - for a while - NYLT was my favorite 
                            | from The Game
       Kevin Shepherd       | Are you still interested in pics for you WEB 
                            | pagew Sheri?
       Sheri                | Sure!
       Sophie Crittin       | In UK, Queen is really an Institution.
       Ross                 | <-- could talk about Queen for a few hours, 
                            | I'm sure :)
       Kevin Shepherd       | I have one of me in Jamaica wearing my Bian

       Sophie Crittin       | What do you think about Rena ?
       Sheri                | Are you the Ross from a.m.q from Texas?
       Ross                 | I missed the August 82 show because I was in

       Sophie Crittin       | The great, the unique, the fantastic, the

       Ross                 | I was quite mad when they divorced 2 years 
                            | ago...
       Kevin Shepherd       | What a waste!!
       stevie               | I am thirty-something.  Fav groups are 
                            | countless. Saw
                            | Queen in Indy in about 82.  One of my all 
                            | time best
                            | concerts.
       Ross                 | "You mean I had to miss Queen and you 
                            | couldn't make your marriage last? "
       Sheri                | I hope you didn't really tell them that, 
                            | Ross?  ;)
       Kevin Shepherd       | Ha! Ha!
       Ross                 | Of course I did, Sheri - they're very good 
                            | friends...
                            | they knew that night what the reason was for 
                            | my pained look...
       Sheri                | :D
       Ross                 | I actually had a plan to drive the 45 minutes 
                            | back to Dallas and maybe catch the last 
                            | hour...
                            | but it was not to be :(
       Sheri                | Only 45 minutes to Dallas?  I had to drive 11 
                            | hours to Dallas to catch Brian's show!  Plus 
                            | a few 
                            | more to Houston for the next night...
       Brian Yarosh         | Someone mentioned somthing about a 
                            | Queenvention.  Do they hold one in the 
                            | states? when 
                            | and where?
       Ross                 | I saw the Day at the Races tour when I didn't 
                            | really know who they were...
                            | then saw the News of the World and Jazz tours.
                            | they didn't return after 1982 :(
       Sheri                | I never got to see Queen--I wasn't old enough 
                            | and/or couldn't afford to travel that far 
                            | when they 
                            | were last here, anyway.
       Kevin Shepherd       | Just thought I'd mention, I just put on Queen 
                            | II.
       Ross                 | (and didn't tour for The Game either)
                            | I'm sure this group could discuss the merits 
                            | of *that* album !
       Sheri                | Brian--there is a Queenvention each year put 
                            | on by Royal Vision.  It's usually around the 
                            | beginning of August.  It changes location 
                            | every year, but is usually around the 
                            | midwest.  It was 
                            | in Detroit this year, Buffalo last year, near 
                            | Cleveland before that, and Philly before that.
       Ben                  | I'll join you in some Queen II...
       Kevin Shepherd       | I was 14 when they last came to Toronto 
                            | (Works Tour) and couldn't go. :-(
                            | Please do!!
       Sheri                | I like The Game.  I don't understand why some 
                            | people don't like it.  It's got *great* songs 
                            | like 
                            | Save Me and Sail Away Sweet Sister...
       Ben                  | Keep the street awake for a few more hours! 
                            | <g>
       Brian Yarosh         | Thanks Sheri.  I will write RV and get more 
                            | info.
       Ross                 | I like the Game better than most, Sheri...
       Sheri                | It must be 2am over there Ben?
       Ross                 | Brian is outstanding on it...
       Bohemian Girl        | Me too, ross.
       Kevin Shepherd       | The last album Brian sang a whole song on 
                            | isn't it?
       Ross                 | and the writing is better than most.
       Brian Yarosh         | The Game is better than Hot Space!
       Sheri                | Brian sang the b-side Lost Opportunity, but 
                            | no more whole songs on an album.
       Ben                  | Sheri, just comming up to it...  I can't stay 
                            | away much longer!!
       Sheri                | Get more caffeine...
       Bohemian Girl        | Get another cup of coffee <g>
       Ben                  | Tea, please!
       Ross                 | GMTA ladies !
