This blog is in the first case meant for myself so I don't forget interesting stuff. So you will find lots of useless topics, but there will certainly be also readings that might interest you. Lots of the items will go about my family, things we do or don't do but also about software, cars, gadgets, music, etc ... .

Queen - The show must go on

Yesterday evening I went together with a friend of mine to Queen's Non smoking show in the Sportpaleis in Antwerp, Belgium.

I am a hard core fan ever since I heard my father play Bohemian Rhapsody, but I never had the chance to see them play in the flesh. Since Freddie Mercury died of aids, I was sure I would never see them perform live.

But now I had the chance altough it wasn't with my favourite singer Freddie but with this guy Paul Rodgers which I had never heard of. But men this guy Paul knows really how to play rock and roll. I was really impressed by his performance, from time to time I even totally forgot that he wasn't the original Queen frontman.

If you like Queen or if you are a Paul Rodgers fan buy a ticket because this show really rocks. Even my friend who just came along to do me a favour enjoyed it ! The show must go on !
