Poll: Which is the worst QPR team?

Best Frontmen of All Time.. on 11:00 - Jul 16 with 13828 viewsizlingtonhoop

Utterly subjective, could choose many of the above - definitely not Freddie Mercury though Metalica, I'm no Queen fan after Seven Sea of Rhye, but I watched a concert fairly recently and realised that (for me) his pantomime buffoonery spoiled three pretty damn rarking! musicians.

So:

Rod
Jarvis
Shane

Honourable mention Ian Curtis, and yes disco perhaps Johnny Rotten - no, always Johnny Rotten!
0
Best Frontmen of All Time.. on 11:06 - Jul 16 with 13821 viewsqpr1976

Ian Dury (from whom J Rotten based his personna on)
Joe Strummer
Elvis Costello

Honourable mentions to Jarvis Cocker, David Byrne, Morrissey, Tim Armstrong, Marc Bolan, I could go on.....

Or if QPR related

Mick Jones (B.A.D.)
Robert Smith
Pete Doherty

I'm not a fan of Queen, but Mercury was genuinely incredible.
I've seen the band perform with Rogers and he's an incredible singer in his own right, but he's not even 10% of Freddie. Charisma personified.

Bare bones.

Mine are just based on the best voices (in my humble opinion)

Chaka


Burton Cummings


Jim Morrison

Reminds me. In 1985, Ken's Christmas party, a tent in Finsbury Park.

One of the acts was (we went to see Madness) Marc Almond and the Willing Sinners. Much grumbling. I and the now Mrs Iz were both equally open-mouthed astonished at how powerful and charismatic a performer the little fella was! He's probably 6'4", but...

Imagination were also astonishingly entertaining that afternoon, but that doesn't mean Leee is going to make anyone's list any time soon.
