| | Queen (band) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Queen is credited by artists as diverse as Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, Mötley Crüe, Guns N' Roses, Def Leppard, Metallica, Extreme, Dream Theater, Steve Vai, Trent Reznor, Robbie Williams, George Michael, Nirvana, The Smashing Pumpkins, Green Day, Foo Fighters, Muse, The Darkness, Franz Ferdinand, and Joan Osborne as having a major influence on their sounds. |
 | | Queen's live performances were truly ground-breaking, employing massive lighting rigs, pyrotechnics, and other special effects to make their shows into engaging theatrical events. |
 | | Queen embarked upon many popular tours, with memorable shows (including the historic Live Aid concert) held at Wembley Stadium in England, and at the Rock in Rio festival in Brazil, although only the group's final tour, in support of the album "A Kind of Magic", ever actually made any money. |
