According to the Queen Fan Club there will be an article in June’s Classic Rock magazine (with Velvet Revolver on the cover) which will include a 3 page interview with Brian May, Roger Taylor and John Deacon.

This interview will include the boys discussing:

• New tracks including
  • C-Lebrity
  • Say It’s Not True
  • Call Me
  • We Believe
  • The Whole House Rocking
• Where the album was recorded
• John Deacon’s Involvement
• The loss of Freddie Mercury
• The new tour

The Fan Club also revealed that the promised cover song that was to be on the album will no longer be on the album but instead will be used at some point as part of the promotional tour. The cover will be of Del Shannon’s Runaway.

An advertisement promoting the upcoming Queen + Paul Rodgers tour, The Cosmos Rocks appeared on the radio in the UK, and it seems to have 2 studio clips, one from C-Lebrity, (recently debuted live on the Al Murray Happy Hour), and an as yet unknown song, (my guess would be The Cosmos Rocks)

This Mp3 is the clip:

Enjoy!

Al Murray is a big Queen fan who always has his guests perform a Queen song to close out the show. Well tonight he had the real thing.

Queen + Paul Rodgers performed All Right Now at the end thwarting the usual Queen song finale, of course but more importantly debuted a new track from their forthcoming album.

It has a great riff, and some great Roger Taylor modulated vocals.

Here are the Queen related clips from the show, including “C-Lebrity” on YouTube:

This past Christmas, my brother, knowing how much of a Queen fanatic I was, got me tickets to “One Night of Queen”, a Queen tribute act from Glasgow who were internationally known and respected. I was thankful but had a bit of trepidation. I mean…it’s still just a tribute band. I never got to see Freddie, but I had seen Queen with Paul Rodgers, so how would this compare. Do I really want to see some guy dressed and acting like Freddie?

Afterwards, all I can say is I’m very glad my brother got me the tickets!
