No idea how many Queen or Freddie fans there might be here, but I'm a pretty huge fan of both, and today would be Freddie's 65th birthday.
Queen's official Facebook page has been promoting what they call "Freddie for a Day", which encourages people to dress up in one of Freddie's many extravagant and dramatic costumes in honour of him. They've also uploaded a couple of tribute videos on their Youtube channel from current artists talking about how they were influenced both by Freddie and Queen. They are also streaming the entire Wembley Concert from 1986 on Youtube all day.
As I mentioned above, I am an enormous Queen fan, and am always looking to introduce people to their music and the enthusiasm and charisma Freddie had. I never had the chance to see them live, but if a time machine is ever invented within my lifetime, you can be sure that's one of the first things I'll do.
So, I guess this thread is a place where you can post your favorite videos or songs, or if you had the pleasure of seeing Queen live, feel free to share some of your reminiscences.
