Now I didn't know this....

'A Royal Mail stamp called The Millennium Stamp commemorated the life of Freddie Mercury. The stamp caused controversy because Queen drummer Roger Taylor could be seen in the background. Members of the British Royal family are the only living people allowed to appear on stamps in the UK.'!!!!

It's in Montreux....didn't you know that?!?!

Here's some more info from Wikipedia....

Freddie Mercury's Montreux Memorial Day, annually September 1st and 2nd since 2003.

The main square of the town, Place du Marché, features a statue of Queen singer Freddie Mercury facing Lake Geneva.

Montreux is the home of Mountain Studios, the recording studio used by several artists. In 1978, the band Queen bought the studio, which now is still owned by Queen producer David Richards. Queen also appeared in 1984 and in 1986 at the Golden Rose Festival and Queen guitarist Brian May appeared in 2001 at the Jazz Festival. Montreux was also the subject of the 1995 Queen single A Winter's Tale of the album of the same year Made in Heaven, with the adjacent music video showing images of the city.
