No, you forgot that it would be in a faux leather bound case and would be limited to 500. And GB has pre-ordered 499. JSS has the other 1, which has ALL the footage and perfect audio, but he won't sell it.

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
I'm betting my chips on a "Sing Along with Knebworth" theatre release.

The audio from the show minus Freddie's vocals and a "View from the stage" 3D computer rendering so that it looks like you are on stage looking at the audience. In IMAX 3D.

The music plays and the audience in the theatre sings as if they are Freddie Mercury.

The words scroll across the bottom with a bouncing Brian May head highlighting the words.


Am I close?
Hello GB. It's been 3 years since you told us about the upcomming surprise
But it wasn't Queen's final gig by any means was it?    So how would it be expressed properly?
I've never understood why Kenbworth is so important to everyone; sure it's the band's last show, but the set list and the performance were virtually identical to the Wembley and Budapest shows.

Why would a DVD or full audio release of any sort stir the loins?

Surely we're better off pushing for an archive release with some merit and as an ADDITION to the existing catalogue?
Benn
Agreed.  As great as it'd be to have better Knebworth footage, if offered a choice between that and say, the second night at Earls Court 77, I'd like to think most sensible people would choose the latter.

Well I personally don't understand how can somebody like Wembley or Budapest :-) This concert is my favourite concert from the 80's (with Hammy '79 being my favourite from the 70's).

What I do like about the concert ?

- the amazing atmosphere
- incredibly emotional speeches from Freddie ("This is an enormous place, even by our standards, I tell you. It looks
beautiful from up here! It's frightening, I tell you. It looks beautiful.", ""I think most of you know that this is the last stop on our tour. You know that, don't you? And such a beautiful way to end it. I mean, look at the lot of you. I might also add that this
has been the best European tour for us, thanks to all you fuckers out there. And earlier on there were rumours of us splitting up, but, I mean... fuck 'em. I mean really, look at this!" ) - I don't know why but I end in tears :-)
- Amazing versions of Tie Your Mother Down, Pressure, Dust, Break Free, Rock You, Champions and many many others
- amazing footage, I simply can't stop watching the pro-shot footage (especially Ga Ga and Champions),

......

I meant of course the bits from the documentaries (Killer Queen, Rare Live, Magic Years, The Champions Of The World) intercut with the audience footage

Yeah, possibly in trade somewhere from a TV reporter, from a station... from any sound board or live technician with the mind to record such a MASSIVE gathering... it's possible.

Seems like there needs to be a APB (all points bulletin) issued on the matter...

just for closure to a Queen Box set...

Frequently some people have been known to even hack the signals of some performances...

Sadly, i don't think EVERY guy at the desk does it... but it SHOULD Be done...

for posterity, History.

OH and BTW: i only commented on this topic because the celeb status of Dave Fuller. (great public collection of Queen rarities)

\m/  Rock on! \m/

Might try tracking down the people issued PRESS passes for the show.

or MAYBE, just MAYBE... start an internet rumor that YETI (bigfoot) showed up at the gig...

this way we could get the A&E network to finance an exploration of it.

(JUST A THOUGHT) ;)

I did know that actually. Apparently he rode to the studio on a big purple motorcycle, which sounds pretty cool.

And Jon Pertwee was terrific.

As did i... Supposedly she liked the keys on LITTLE RED CORVETTE when it came on the radio...and wanted something like it for her own album.

BTW: it was the Purple One's Birthday Yesterday. 7-7,...

So it all went into the Ether, and is, by now, about 20 light years away, on its way to ... well, anyone out there who is watching in our corner of the Galaxy. The chances of them beaming it back to us, so we can have another chance to record it, must be pretty remote ! " (Brian May re Knebworth '86 footage)

[/i]Can we please have QP make a DVD/movie/biopic about four rapid fans' attempt to travel the galaxy at speeds faster than light in the sole hope of watching Knebworth '86 one last time? The twist could be at the end when even they forget to turn on the betamax!! Brill, hey!??

This is my first and only QP request, so I expect some action, thanks.

That would be fucking amazing.
