I think Queen is a great shout.

I can't think of any other rock band that put out so many average albums out in succession. Every single Queen album is packed with filler tracks & novelty songs. Even the album that is considered their masterpiece A Night At The Opera has loads of filler and novelty songs (Bohemian Rhapsody being the biggest novelty song on there).

And there's also the one thing that Queen fans always like to sweep under the carpet when you mentioned it. For all their so-called greatness they never cracked the American market. Yeah they toured there, yeah they may have sold out a few gigs there but they never became big stars over there.

Let's face it, a movie with 4 guys headbanging in a car did more for Queen's popularity in the States than their whole discography & touring there ever did.

I'd like to second Queen going in.
