Also want to comment that until now, I hadn't fully appreciated how essential Roger's drumming and vocals are to keeping the Queen sound vibrant and intact. Roger adding that hot funk to the sing-a-long totally transformed it. And hearing Roger Taylor play the opening beats of "We Will Rock You" makes you forget every slaughter by every bad sports arena or lousy party band. Roger delivers pure energy. You feel it through and through. He starts WWRY, and every time I have a flash of, omg, it's the real thing.

OK, this is going to be reaaly stupid, but: can someone please direct me to the first intro and discussion of FLD racking my brain as to what this means, F for Freddie, obvious L - Lives forever? no clue what D is for. I get the gist, I think just from discussions I have seen here. but, what exactly is FLD? sorry to dredge this up. Please and thanks To most of the world #FLD = Fast Lane Daily. Bridgemah used it for the "He's no Freddie" mantra. It stands for Freddie Lambert Debate. Thanks to all for jumping in with definition while I was asleep ... It stands for "Freddie Legal Disclaimer" a nod to the endless repetition of "Freddie is greatest ever; he's no Freddie" mantra that appears everywhere. Speculated there is a law we don't know about that any writer has yo insert some version of that phrase... :-) (Freddie Lambert Debate works too )

Roger adding that hot funk to the sing-a-long totally transformed it. Was it Roger that started it? The first time it happened, I thought on one of the videos it looked like Rufus did it. It made me optimistic about him continuing with Adam.

"And finally...(this is the problem when you lurk for too long, you have all these feels and thoughts and then you over-compensate when you de-lurk!) I think one of the problems some people have with the long solos is simply generational. Everything is in 10-second intervals now--all of our commercials, our television shows, everything is snippets and as a result, culturally we now have very short attention spans. Back in the day, a 15-minute guitar solo was more of a norm than an exception. (Of course, it probably didn't hurt that we were usually stoned while we were listening to it!" Thank you, Noreaster. I went back to teaching after leaving in 1970. The biggest change I noticed was many kids had difficulty entertaining themselves and the attention span had decreased dramatically. I blamed it on the way we watch TV in short bursts between commercials, just as you mentioned. Wondering what the effect of DVR use will have.
