I am of several minds about Queen + Paul Rodgers.

===-Using the Queen name - inappropriate===
[http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0094535/ IMDB entry]


If we were to rank the four members of Queen in terms of how much they were responsible for the sound, writing, and success of the band, it would probably be in the order
[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_Dwarf Wikipedia entry]


1. [[Freddie Mercury]]
[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Red_Dwarf_episodes Wikipedia episode list]


2. [[Brian Mays]]

3. [[John Deacon]]
[[Red Dwarf Series I]]


4. [[Roger Taylor]]
[[Red Dwarf Series II]]


<nowiki><nowiki>#1 is dead and #3 is retired.</nowiki></nowiki> &nbsp;Mathematically, this necessarily means that the combination of Brian Mays and Roger Taylor makes up less than half of what Queen was. &nbsp;So is not going by the Queen name inaccurate?
[[Red Dwarf Series III]]


===-Using the Queen name - apppropriate===
[[Red Dwarf Series IV]]


Forgetting mathematics for a second, shouldn't the remaining members of a famous band be able to refer to themselves as the name people actually know them by?
[[Red Dwarf Series V]]


Even going back to mathematics, while they're less than half of what ''made'' Queen, they're now more than a half of ''surviving'' Queen.
[[Red Dwarf Series VI]]


===-[[Paul Rodgers]]===
[[Red Dwarf Series VII]]


I think he made an interesting choice for a new collaboration. &nbsp;Rather than the active Queen members just trying to look for someone who could reasonably well voice the Freddie bits, they partnered up with someone who sounds nothing like him but has his own long history of rock success.
[[Red Dwarf Series VIII]]


This created a legitimately new combination, allowing for several types of output:
[[Red Dwarf: Back to Earth]]


1. Old Queen music sung in a Paul Rodgers way
=Cast=


2. Old Paul Rodgers music played in a Queeny way
From regulars to... irregulars.


3. New creations made by a team of 40-year rock veterans with different histories
