It may not get as many replies here as some other sites, but as for it being the "wrong place"? I disagree. Who says the original poster has to only pick one site, anyway? I wouldn't mind betting that he/she may have posted on other sites too, to get opinions of different groups of people. And that's fine with me.

I for one am enjoying discussing one of the other styles of music I like. As for Freddie Mercury - he was a most interesting man. I'll add more later, when I have time, about his forays into the world of opera! Or maybe somebody else will before I get a round tuit ;-)
