Queen Extravaganza

To evoke the name of Queen is to invoke a legend. It is to see again on stage an iconic Freddie Mercury, dancing under the hammering of drums and electric riffs that nothing seemed to be able to stop. It's hearing the clamour of stadiums all over the world.

The one and only concert validated and produced by the band's original members: Roger Taylor & Brian May.

And the void left by the mythical London band is a chasm. So deep that it looks like abysses that would have already swallowed up an impressive number of bands wanting to revive the fervour, to revive songs that still resonate in all heads. For it is certain, it is not Queen who wants.

But Queen Extravaganza is not one of those ordinary tribute bands. No, it has its roots at the source, in the will of Roger Taylor and Brian May, ex-musicians of the legendary band, to make their songs resound again on stage. It was the latter who organised one of the most hysterical auditions in history to find young talent worthy of theirs. To find voices that could carry Freddie Mercury's message, almost 30 years after his death, without producing a pale copy.

Five musicians and no less than four singers, led by Alirio Netto & Gareth Taylor, caught the eye of the former drummer who produced the band himself. Charisma, energy, passion, it took no less to rekindle the flame of one of the most popular bands in history. Bohemian Rhapsody, Another One Bites the Dust, We Will Rock You, immortal songs that rise from the ashes in explosive concerts and with all their original vocal complexity. A tour de force for the band, which definitely makes us think that yes, The Show Must Go On!
