    This is VERY cool, and it figures that Queen would be the band to blaze the trail for this sort of thing. The subject matter is great, the story of Queen is told in a fantastic manner, and all of the multi-media is superb. Still, I got the notion the entire time I went through it that this sort of thing is just the tip of the iceberg. I can't wait to see what other bands come up with. Mr. Gilmour, Mr. Rogers, I'm looking your way here...
  • Fantastic experience
