I remember having my guitarist saying when he first heard them he was was impressed by the guitarist... in that he couldn't see how he was getting his live guitar sound from what he was playing... Unitll somebody pointed out that he's not playing live guitars... Now maybe a band like Queen can have backing tapes and justify it by saying they have a complex sound which at times needs it to pull off the songs... I'm sorry but you have to be a pretty crap musician to not be able to pull off their songs, so the only plausable reason for them to hide like this is that they can not play.

They won't be there because without everything that other people provide in the background they are a bad pub band at best. Plus I'm sorry, but it's going to be really sad if in 15 years time music is still dominated by geeks. I mean, there is no way on this earth that they can be called rock stars, they just don't have the attitude.
