Well, at least UK, Northern Eurasia, Central, Southern and Eastern Europe
With highly anticipated return to Latin America expected to follow. The tour heralds in first new Queen studio album in 13 Years. With a new album in the pipeline - the first new studio album to carry the Queen name since the Freddie Mercury sessions - Queen is heading back on the road for a four-month tour, once again in the company of musician/singer/songwriter Paul Rodgers who joined the band for the highly successful 2005/2006 world tour, the European leg of which ended with the band's spectacular London Hyde Park open air concert before going on to play the US and Japan. In all, the band's tour was attended by more than a million people.
Tracks on the new Queen + Paul Rodgers album will include 'Say It's Not True', previously released at the end of last year by Queen + Paul Rodgers as a special World Aids Day download for Nelson Mandela's 46664 HIV AIDS charity , plus a 'first' for a Queen album - a cover version. The remaining tracks are all newly written by May, Taylor and Rodgers during the late 2007/early 2008 recording sessions.
