"The Hammersmith show on that tour in 2016 was massive for me because I’d been to a lot of concerts there and the venue was so engrained in Queen history. As Roger and Spike introduced us, I was totally inspired. Roger then put his hand on my shoulder and said sincerely: “Darren - best of luck”. For that to happen just once in your life is unbelievable! But then Spike puts his hand on my shoulder and said: “Don’t f*ck it up!”. So that was all that was echoing in my head as I started the intro to Death on Two Legs! "

As keyboardist and Musical Director of the Queen Extravaganza, Darren Reeves will be going out on the road early in 2023 for the twice-re-arranged UK and European tour of Queen’s official tribute band.
