Following Freddie Mercury’s untimely death in November 1991, Queen bassist John Deacon couldn’t see the point of the band carrying on, knowing it was impossible to replace Freddie. Deacon retired from the music industry 25 years ago.
In a recent interview with RockFM Brian May was asked about if he, Roger Taylor and John Deacon could ever come together on stage.
To this Brian said
"I think not, of course we love John and we always will but we don't have any significant contact with him. Now that's the way he wants it he wanted to cut that tie and to be a private person and we have to respect that. I don't think it would be easy for John to step back into the arena that we inhabit. In fact a couple of times we have asked him but he always says no that's not what I do now and we have to respect that. John doesn't wants to do it. I think it would be difficult for him anyway because things have changed a lot and Roger and I have adapted a certain amount. We're still very old school but we're aware of different ways of behaving these days and different ways in which our art is channeled. No I don't think that's going to happen sadly I'd love to say yes but I don't think it would. It's possible that we could meet in some low stress situation I think but in public probably not. "
Since retiring, Deacon chose not the attend Queen’s induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2001.
In a previous Interview, Roger Taylor said he remembers the last time he saw John Deacon was in the bar at the We Will Rock You musical around 2004 and when asked whether they are in touch or not both Brian May and Roger Taylor said that They are not in touch with him.
