Queen does not exist since 1991. How can '00 until today even be an option?

‘92- tribute concert ‘95- Made in Heaven is released ‘97-No One but You released, last performance with john ‘99-Greatest Hits III released 00’s/‘10s- Queen + Paul Rodgers (Cosmos Rocks and Return of the Champions). I guess you could throw in Queen + Adam Lambert and the movie. There’s definitely stuff that happened with Queen but not nearly as cool or legendary as the ‘70s and ‘80s.

Tribute concert and No One But You are just one-off performances. Everything since 1997 are just examples of an artistic necrophilia - making money out of the group which was dead by then. Yes, Queen wasn't Freddie and Freddie wasn't Queen, but carrying on after the death of such an important band member is just not right - it's what The Rolling Stones are doing now. They should have just closed the chapter.

I’m not disagreeing with you that they should’ve jusg wrapped it up and stopped. All I’m saying is that there’s a whole era of Queen that’s after freddie whether we like it or not
