And coming from a guy who doesn't mind technical things or doesn't even use notes much... I read that he can read notes nowadays but in the beginning, he taught himself without anything else but his natural gift in time. That's pretty damn impressing. And yes I know he is not the only one. I myself respect very much everybody who create their own sound and technique, with natural talent. Drummers have always been my weak spot and Roger can also sing at the same time. With such an amazing voice. While being so handsome. A real threat 😂🙈❤️

Interesting perspective. Nice to see Roger making magic with his drums, awesome, but I couldn't but notice the other members of Queen so focused and concentrated on their own thing and still everything was operating as smooth as silk, complete synchronisation, each in his zone and still as if one mind. That magic is till there and can be heard in every record. Thank you, Roger, Brian, Deaky and not the least thank you to Freddy for creating music that goes on from decade to decade. A huge huge thank you to each and every one of you from the Polar Circle! Please, plan a miniature tour of Europe, it would be a real pleasure and honour to see you live again. Your music has been part in my life in every turn. The only sad thing is there is no singer worth singing Freddie's lyrics. Adam Lambert fell short, sorry to say, no real charisma, only bravado... You, the Queen, will be perhaps one of the of the controversial groups, but in the best possible way. Misfits, eclectic, genuine, dedicated, true to their style... one of the top five bands in the world in the 70', 80' and 90's. Some may disagree, but to me they are the top band ever performing. Love you guys just as you are, the love is for your music. Play and create more superb memories.
