In November 1991, the world mourned music legend Freddie Mercury, who died of complications resulting from AIDS. As lead singer, songwriter and the heart of Queen, Freddie's legacy continues to inspire generations of fans and musicians.
On November 9th, a unique group of musicians -- and Queen fans -- will come together to commemorate the twentieth anniversary of Freddie's passing, with a live performance of the music of Queen. All proceeds will be donated to AIDS Project Los Angeles, to help combat the disease that took Freddie from this world. The Show Must Go On.
