Going to learn, the deacon felt that his musical life had ended, so he left the house and a guitar and amplifier. However, after only six months, John did not stand up and asks the family to send him the tools, he understands that without music he can't exist. This period is very seriously affected the stance of the musician, it was at this time he realized that music is his destiny.
October 1970 for the first time brought him to the Queen, the composition of which has already been formed by that time. John went to one of the clubs of London, where his colleagues were. As later described this moment the musician, band he didn't like. At the same time, the deacon attempts to organize his own team that he is doing. He with other musicians gives a concert in College, but after that, the group itself did not. The name of this group is unknown.
However, this failure is not discouraging deacon. He always reads Newspapers in search of announcements of a set in any rock band. And one day fortune smiles at him – in the ad he comes to audition for his future team. However, according to another version membership in the group Queen was a bit different. Say John deacon met with Brian may and Roger Taylor at parties, and when they found out he plays bass guitar, then invited him to audition. Like it or not – no matter how important that John still were in the next legendary rock band.
Six months later, or rather, 2 July 1971, the band Queen gave her first concert with a new member. Since John was in trouble with the radio and other electronics, he was instructed to provide the unit with all the necessary equipment to monitor his health. Dickon were doing a good job and even created his own amplifier, which has toured with rockers. In addition, the bassist was engaged in economic issues, led all financial Affairs. The other members of the team, knowing the great intellectual abilities of the deacon, fully trusted him, and some personal life situations consulted with him.
All members of the rock band was engaged in writing lyrics, but John did not required. Enough and that it was professional and highly skilled guitarist. The deacon, however, despite this, still trying to write songs. His first song Misfire has not been awarded the recognition by the audience, however, almost all subsequent certainly became worldwide hits. Among such famous and well-known songs composed by John Deacon, are You’re My Best Friend, Another One Bites the Dust, I Want to Break Free, One Year of Love, and others.
The Last part of John in the band Queen took place on 20 April 1992, after the death of Freddie mercury. This concert was dedicated to the memory of the past.
Later, in 1997, John deacon took part in another concert dedicated to the singer of the band, but after that he is done with his music career. It was a complete surprise for many, as previously the bass player said that he did not wish to participate in only one group and plans to work in other musical directions. Apparently, Freddie's death has profoundly influenced deacon. Moreover, the gap of the music was final and irreversible-no matter how much I wanted him in other projects, including the project Queen + Paul Rodgers, John, these proposals were rejected.
The media was once spread information about the financial condition of the former bass guitarist of the band Queen. If you believe this data, the approximate condition of John is estimated at fifty million pounds.
