Queen Tour Slated For Spring 2005

Queen fans have had 13 years to deal with the death of Freddie Mercury and the fact that the remaining members had no desire to go on without them. They're in for a pleasant surprise, as Queen guitarist Brian May has announced on his website that Queen will reform and tour in early 2005. Apparently May recently played onstage with Paul Rodgers (formerly of Free, Bad Company and The Firm), and they both had such a great time that they've decided to tour together. Queen drummer Roger Taylor will be involved, but there has not been any confirmation as to whether John Deacon will be joining his former bandmates.
