Speaking with Good Morning America (see video below), Queen drummer Roger Taylor admits that he and Brian May thought it was the end of the band after Freddie Mercury died in November 1991.
Says Roger: "We thought it was all over. And I think Brian and I, we kinda thought that was the end of that chapter, and everything that’s happened, especially since we met Adam has just been fate unfolding.”
