Jambo63 Posted May 19, 2009 Posted May 19, 2009 Have never met him but have seen Queen 3 times over the years, Crazy Tour of 79 at Glsgow Apollo, Hot Space 82 Edinburgh Ingliston and the final Magic tour 86 at Newcastle. My all time fav band it has to be said Quote
Bass_In_Yer_Face Posted May 19, 2009 Posted May 19, 2009 I heard a story that Queen & Chic met in a recording studio somewhere and the mighty Bernard Edwards played JD the line he was working on for 'Good Times'...JD then adapted it for 'Another Bites The Dust'...makes sense. Quote

goingdownslow Posted May 19, 2009 Posted May 19, 2009 [quote name='walbassist' post='488923' date='May 15 2009, 02:30 PM']I went to a ball, mid 80s, with the drummer in my band. There we were having a pee in a three stall urinal, leaving the stall in the middle free (as you do). Who should walk in and take pride of place in the middle stall? You guessed it.... Mr Deacon.[/quote] Wow! Fancy having a wee alongside John Deacons Dad. Quote

How you play the bass drum in All Right Now different to the original beats me...
