Roger Taylor has told Radio 2 that Justin and Dan Hawkins of The Darkness are to join Queen on stage at their Hyde Park concert on 8 Jul. The Queen drummer told interviewer Stuart Maconi "Justin and Dan from The Darkness are hopefully gonna come down and do a little something with us, so I'm looking forward to that. We're working out what it's gonna be."
Brian May also said that Tony Blair, who is apparently a fan of new Queen frontman/ex-Free singer Paul Rodgers, was "pestering us every minute" during the recent series of live dates, saying "We couldn't get rid of him on the last tour". Which must be a joke. I mean, Mr Blair is busy running the country, isn't he? Hmm. Perhaps not.
