    I've been a life long Queen fan and just checking if there are many other F-Chat members that are Queen fans. I'd love to hear there stories and if they ever saw them in concert. I got to experience 1 Queen Concert in 1981. I was 14 yrs. old. It was The Game Album.

    I was too young, never saw them live.

    But a fan of them. Their songs have stood the test of time!

    I only just told a friend the other day imagine hearing their songs over the next 50 yrs. Amazing stuff! :)

    twice. 10/28/78 @ Dallas County Convention Center supporting their Jazz album (no opening act) and 8/9/80 @ Dallas's Reunion Arena for the Game album (opening act was Dakota, terrible)

    Both were awesome shows but the DCCC show was better due to better acoustics at the venue.

    I WISH I was older and could have seen them. My father loved them and saw them live.

    Had the privilege to see Queen at the Meadowlands in NJ in 1982 on the Hot Space tour. This tour was the beginning of the end for the bands popularity in the US. The next several albums were commercial disasters. It all changed after Live Aid, but by then Freddie Mercury's illness was catching up to him. The show they did at Wembley after had people believing they were back. But,..........

    I am a huge Queen fan and had a few chances to see them but never did and The Game is one of favorite albums.

    I feel the exact same way. Hot Space was the final album I bought. I know a few songs here and there after, But listening to Sirius XM these last few days, I'm like Huh? What's this song. Thru Hot Space, I know every word to every song.
