MusicQueen & Paul Rodgers

„QUEEN & PAUL RODGERS"  in Belgrade Arena,  29^th October 2008.
The Queen + Paul Rodgers collaboration began in late 2004 when Queen were inducted into the UK Music Hall of Fame. Guitarist Brian May had previously performed with Paul Rodgers (formerly of Bad Company, Free, The Firm and The Law) on several occasions, including at the Royal Albert Hall. Roger Taylor, drummer of Queen, and Brian May have been active in the music industry since the death of Queen lead singer Freddie Mercury in 1991 and the retirement of bassist John Deacon in the late 1990s.

Brian May, Roger Taylor and Paul Rodgers are the principal members of the band, supplemented on tour by Queen's former touring keyboard player Spike Edney (who had also been a member of Roger Taylor's band The Cross and Brian May's line-up, where he supplied piano/keyboards and backing vocals, and had indeed provided additional piano on Queen's A Kind of Magic album and played live with them on the subsequent Magic Tour in 1986), rhythm guitarist Jamie Moses (formerly of Merlin, The Pretenders, The Hollies and the Brian May Band), bassist Danny Miranda (formerly of Blue Öyster Cult and the Las Vegas production of the We Will Rock You musical).

The origins of the collaboration came when Brian May played at the Fender Strat Pack concert in 2004. Now for the first time, he joined Paul Rodgers for a rendition of Free's classic, All Right Now. After this Brian spoke of a chemistry between the two of them. Following this, Brian invited Paul to play with Queen at their induction to the UK Music Hall of Fame where they played We Will Rock You, We Are The Champions and All Right Now. Again citing a new excitement with Rodgers, the three announced they would tour.
