Just weeks out from what would have been Freddie Mercury’s 70th birthday (September 5) celebrations, as well as the opening of the Queen-inspired musical We Will Rock You in Melbourne next month, we are on a mission to crown a rock king.
We want to find the rock artist who has, over the years, left the biggest mark on our memories and our music collections; to decide once and for all who is the greatest rock band frontman — or woman — of all time.
We’ve sought expert opinion from Ian ‘Molly’ Meldrum and Herald Sun music writers Nui Te Koha and Mikey Cahill to help us compile a list of the greatest — or, perhaps, most memorable — rock superstars of all time. But we also want to know which artists you think have left the greatest legacy.
Have your say on who you think is rock music’s most epic frontman and go in the running to win a customised Red Special guitar signed by legendary Queen strummer Brian May PLUS tickets to see We Will Rock You when it opens in Melbourne. 10 runners up will win a double pass to We Will Rock You on September 14.
