Queen talk about how they'll prepare for
their Isle of Wight Festival set
Friday, June 10, 2016 9:54pm by London Newsdesk
Iconic rock band Queen and singer Adam Lambert will perform live this Sunday night at the Isle of Wight Festival and drummer Roger Taylor has revealed they'll give the slot that extra injection of passion.
During an interview with BBC Radio 2's Chris Evans, Taylor explained that he, Brian May and Adam Lambert are very excited for the event and can't wait to bring their show to the 100,000-strong crowd:
"We've been going all round Europe having some incredible shows and we're really looking forward to the Isle of Wight on Sunday, there's an incredible line up actually. It's kind of special. It's the only one in Britain. Of course... The Isle of Wight is part of our history, isn't it? The Isle of Wight Festival is a very special thing [...] it's going to be brilliant."
When asked how he will prepare for the set, Taylor added: "I'm going to get a couple of days good rest after last night, which was a big festival in Sweden, and hopefully bring a good voice and all pumped up for Sunday."
"I drink a bit of whiskey beforehand. I get very quiet before the actual show and noisy afterwards! Then hopefully loud during it... We just get focused really, we've been doing it for so long now. We'll give it that extra frisson of excitement..."
As previously reported, Taylor also opened up about the band's plans for after the event and explained that he will take them back to his house for a curry and some drinks.

Forget Summer, This New Rocky Horror Picture Show Teaser Will Have You Longing for Fall

Have you been practicing your Time Warp? Because you only have a few short months to get it right (jump to the left, step to the right, hands on hips, knees in tight, then pelvic thrust!) before Fox's Rocky Horror Picture Show remake hits the air.
In a new (way, way too brief) promo for the latest adaptation of the stage musical-turned-feature film-turned-midnight movie sensation, star Laverne Cox dons one of her many, many fierce Frank-N-Furter outfits. This one is a short, bright red wig complete with a skintight glittering bodysuit and sky-high red heels.
"Let there be lips," she proclaims in the teaser, which you can watch above.
See, told you it was short! But it does its job, considering we're now listening to a playlist of tunes from the RHPS soundtrack and desperately waiting for summer to be over so we're that much closer to getting this thing on the air. (Okay, yes, we're fully aware that it's not even technically summer yet. You're right, this might be a bit of hyperbole, but basically we're REALLY excited to see this thing.)
Joining Cox are Adam Lambert as Eddie, Victoria Justice as Janet, Reeve Carney as Riff Raff, Christina Milian as Magenta, Annaleigh Ashford as Columbia, Ryan McCartan as Brad, Ben Vereen as Dr. Everett von Scott, Staz Nair as beautiful specimen Rocky and the original Frank, Tim Curry, as the Criminologist narrator of the whole thing.
Just a reminder: This is not a live musical, just a made-for-TV remake of the movie. Rocky Horror Picture Show will premiere in October on Fox.
