| VH1's "Music
First" Apparently Roger's not getting tired of saying how much he "loves musicals"... In yesterday's edition of VH1's "Music First" Roger said about Queen's musical: "It is a good show. I mean, I have a high, I have a very irritable, irritable cringe factor, you know? And I don't like musicals, but I tell you what, I like this one. And it is, it's funny, it's got a lot to say. You will see before your very eyes the extermination of all boy bands. It's uplifting, and it's fun, and it's funny, and I can't say anything more than that."

| 46664 Latino It is (sadly) possible that the 46664 Latino concert might not take place in Benidorm and has to move. Brian heard that the Mayor of Benidorm has severely let them down on the city's commitments to the cause. Still they will do everything to make the show happen somehow. Brian will add more information on his website as he has them. (source) Live Aid DVD release The entire 1985 Live Aid concert is to get a release on DVD on November 10th. According to Billboard Magazine, Warner Vision International has won the bidding to release a four-disc package.
