A founder of the legendary rock band Queen<\/strong> dropped a major hint about the potential for a Las Vegas residency in a new interview, claiming, “My mind’s working.”<\/p>\n Brian May<\/strong> spoke to Rolling Stone<\/a>, where he revealed his thoughts about the possibility of a long-term engagement at The Sphere for Queen. The venue is where many of the most iconic bands in music history, including The Eagles, Phish, Dead & Company, and U2, have recently taken the stage.<\/p>\n \u201c I\u2019m very keen on the Sphere,\u201d May revealed. \u201cIt\u2019s got my mind working.”<\/p>\n “I sat there watching the Eagles, thinking, \u2018We should do this. The stuff that we could bring to this would be stupendous.\u2019 So, yeah, I would like to do it. We\u2019re having conversations.\u201d<\/p>\n Parade Daily\ud83c\udfac <\/strong>SIGN UP for Parade’s Daily newsletter to get the latest pop culture news & celebrity interviews delivered right to your inbox<\/strong><\/a> \ud83c\udfac\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n A residency at The Sphere could give Brian May the performing outlet he needs while keeping him off the road. After five decades of that type of life, he’s reportedly had enough.<\/p>\n \u201c I\u2019ve had 50 years of touring and there\u2019s a part of me that thinks it\u2019s enough,\u201d May admitted to Rolling Stone. \u201cI don\u2019t like the idea that you wake up in your hotel room and you\u2019re trapped.”<\/p>\n “I had a few experiences recently where stuff happened at home with my family, and I could not go home. It got under my skin, and I just thought, \u2018I\u2019m not sure if I want this anymore.\u2019 I feel like I\u2019ve given up my freedom too many times.”<\/p>\n He concluded, “So my feeling at the moment is I don\u2019t want to tour as such. I still want to play shows. I still want to innovate.\u201d<\/p>\n The official Queen website<\/a> reported that to celebrate the 50th anniversary of their watershed song, “Bohemian Rhapsody,” there will be reissues of the single and the album from which it hailed, A Night at the Opera.<\/p>\n A Night at the Opera was originally released in November 1975. It marked a defining moment for Freddie Mercury<\/strong>, Brian May<\/strong>, Roger Taylor<\/strong>, and John Deacon<\/strong>, solidifying Queen\u2019s status as rock icons.<\/p>\n \u201cBohemian Rhapsody\u201d became one of Queen\u2019s most iconic and beloved songs. Its innovative structure and theatrical style helped redefine what a rock single could be.<\/p>\n The song topped the UK Singles Chart twice, in 1975 and 1991. It would go on to become the biggest-selling single of the 1970s in the UK, according to Brian May’s official website<\/a>.<\/p>\n May said the song’s mystery endears it to music fans. \u201cPeople still ask me what \u2018Bohemian Rhapsody\u2019 is all about,\u201d he said. \u201cAnd I say I don\u2019t know.\u201d Any revelation, he suggested, \u201closes the myth and ruins a kind of mystique that people have built up.\u201d<\/p>\n There has not been a confirmation that Queen will play The Sphere. The band’s current lineup includes Brian May, Roger Taylor, and Adam Lambert<\/strong>. John Deacon retired from music in 1997.<\/p>\n This story was originally reported by Parade<\/a> on Sep 24, 2025, where it first appeared in the News<\/a> section.
