some of Queen's greatest hits, such as We Will Rock You, Who Wants To
Live Forever, The Show Must Go On and Fat Bottomed Girls.

Queen plan on releasing an album of originals together with Paul Rodgers in

Lisbon. Programming contemplates the visualization of Queen concert in Nep
Stadium, Budapeste, in 1986; karaoke with Queen songs only; the special and
indispensable performance of the Portuguese Queen Tribute Band One Vision.
