Maybe you haven’t been to Queen’s YouTube channel in a while or haven’t heard of a great series they’re doing. But it’s definitely something you need to check out!

The band has launched a brand new series of Queen The Greatest! It’s a year-long exploration into why Queen is regarded as the ultimate live act. The first episode features a brand new and exclusive interview with Brian May and Roger Taylor, as they reveal their rehearsal secrets.

We’re already on week two and it’s so interesting so far.  In the latest episode, they rehearse for their Live Aid set from that iconic day in 1985. I highly recommend checking out the new video each week.  If you’re a Queen fan……it’s pretty damn awesome!

Mike is all about having fun each afternoon. He brings you concert tickets, some fun trivia, and of course the best bands. Other interests outside of being at WDHA are drums, movies, and my family. Also, like most radio personalities, he loves live music. There's nothing like a live show to hype him up! His all-time favorite band is Metallica. But according to him, the list of others is pretty lengthy.
