Hi All,
Thanks for this forum, what a relief to get away from the usual bollocks we have suffered.
My brother passed away a couple of years ago, he (and I) have always been enormous Queen fans. Brother saw them several times from 1974 until Knebworth, still have photos nobody has seen previously from 1979 gig at Newcastle City Hall.
His collections is crazy, mostly CD's, ie demo's, promos, some vinyl, but also T-Shirts, plates, watches. He dedicated his life to Queen. I've most of his very rare stuff.Just a thought really, could we have an area of fans posting their collection items? Would that work? Personally, I still need to do an audit of his stuff. He obviously has all the usual collectables, but this is pretty special and now we are in lock down, hoping to spend some time getting this together.
Thanks guys,
Alan.

I would advise you to use Discogs as a tool to register the collection of the physical carriers. There are 2 apps with a barcode feature so it doesn't have to take too long. |

Hi Alan, Sorry for your loss. Condolences from all of us here. I agree with Fairy. Discogs is a really helpful and informative app/site. Great idea about posting collections. 😀 |

Great to see that so many people are still into Queen and try to keep them as much alive as they can.
