ANNOUNCE: 26TH, OCTOBER, NAGOYA, 1982, MEDIAFIRE, STARK REMASTER

I just came from the swimming pool, I'm just an ordinary girl...lazying on a sunday afternoon!
But soon, and sadly, I should be back to schooooooool...
*laugh*

Well, first, let's give the word for those who have something to say:

"Stark wrote:


Here's my 'remaster' of this show. Sorry for the delay in getting it going. It seems a few people are interested - thanks for all the feedback.

Please bear in mind I've done this for my own use, so if anyone's got anything unpleasant to say please do it somewhere else.

For the nerds: files were equalised with Har-bal (equalisation only) then through Waves denoise, de-hum and L2 limiting plugins in Wavelab. Sounds a bit scary, but no dynamic range has been lost, and the denoising was minimal - i'm monitoring through Mackie HR824s in an acoustically treated room. What has been lost in processing is hopefully gained in the improvement in sound.

Good luck!

Then he added: "Oops! This is 26 October 1982 at Kokusai Tenjijo, Nagoya, Japan. Many thanks to the original uploader."

Ordinary girl back:

So:

Venue: 26 October, 1982, Nagoya, Japan.
Source: ? (would be Action and More Action, by HeartBreakers label, according to the artwork provided by Stark) > ? > Stark Remaster with Har-Bal and Waves denoise > You.

The artwork which accompained the upload was the one from the HeartBreakers' release. Stark didn't state it that it came from Heartbreakers' release, or that it was lossless, mainly because he'd never think that an idiot like me would ask whether the artwork matches the files and the file size matches the quality, which is obviouslly the case, but I'm just doing it in the hope of having Stark talk more about the concert and the remaster, cause I like his comments very much.

STARK ROCKS!

And thanks to the original uploader, whoever he is and wherever he is by now in this wicked, and poverty and violence-stricken world, and I promise you, Queenzoners, that'll get rid of all this, because I get the hope in my gut! (Yara Obama, speech to Queenzoners, 05/25/2008)

The reasons for sharing:

1) I love Stark's remasters - THANK YOU VERY MUCH STARKER AND THE ORIGINAL UPLOADER (do you who uploaded this one originally, Stark?)
2) There are no seeders;
3) Even if there were, there are people who can't use torrents;
4) Here are the MediaFire Links;

By the time, Stark didn't provide the setlist, probably because the raw version had just been shared, though I was unable to find it.

Fortunately, the setlist is in the artwork, so:

CD1

1) Flash Gordon
2) Rock It
3) We Will Rock You
4) Action This Day
5) Play the Game
6) Calling all Girls
7) Now I'm Here

9) Dragon Attack
10) Love of My life
11) Keep Yourself Alive

2) Under Pressure
3) Fat Bottomed Girls
4) Teo Torriatte
5) Crazy Little Thing Called Love
6) Bohemian Rhapsody
7) Tie Your Mother Down

And PEOPLE (now I'm the ordinary girl again, not Yara Obama), ENJOY!

NOW [YARA CRAWLING ON EVERYBODY'S FEET), PLEASE, I BEG YOU, DO NOT CONVERT TO, NOR SHARE IN, THE FILES IN MP3 OR OTHER LOSSY FORMAT, UNLESS IT'S FOR YOUR OWN PRIVATE USE, IN WHICH CASE YOUR FAMILY ITSELF SHOULD NOT KNOW ABOUT THIS SO WE CAN REDUCE THE RISKS OF THE FILES BEING CONVERTED TO LOSSY.

DON'T

Let me be the first to thank you, Yara!

Riku

Thanks a million for this, Yara. I love that Flash-Rock It-WWRY intro. It's not their best opening, in my mind, as Flash doesn't lend well to being followed by the meandering Rock It, but that transition to WWRY is very cool. You can tell by the fact that they reduced WWRY to a snippet (after trying to retire it entirely earlier in the tour) how tired they were of opening with it, and how hard they were trying to find something else that worked!

Wow, such kind words! Thank you - the cheque's in the post..

Oi, linda. Escutei a música...você vê modulação, mesmo!? Você acha mesmo? No máximo uma nota de referência, sim, mas nenhuma modulação no sentido em que você sabe o que é uma modulação. rs Tudo bem, eu perdôo porque você é fã. Mas
acho que você está sendo generosa demais com seus ídolos.

As harmonias vocais da música "Death..." são feias, Yara...horríveis. Há dissonância e os naipes estão todos evidentes.

Ser fã é perder a crítica mesmo. rs

Beijos, te adoro muito, linda.

love

You know, I've actually thought about Death as an intro, and while musically it would work, I don't think it would logistically. The opener is the big, tone-setting number for the evening. A lackadaisical opener can absolutely ruin a setlist--look at the GnR Japan tour video for an example, where they use Nightrain (Nightrain? You've got all those high-energy, hard guitar songs to use, and you pick the sissiest of the bunch?!) as their opener.

Now, musically, Death On Two Legs doesn't have the "it sucks" problem that Nightrain does, but it would have another problem--think about all the openers the band has ever used. Every video example we have, Freddie is bouncing around on stage like a madman. It sets the tone for the evening. How's Freddie supposed to bounce around and engage the audience if he has a ridiculously challenging piano part to play?

I'll probably be in the minority here, but I believe pretty firmly that Dragon Attack would have been an excellent opener for the Hot Space tour. Have the synth opening from Play the Game lead into the cymbal and bass, and as Freddie does the "reds are red" part, the red lights come up, same thing for the greens, and then all the lights come up during the little guitar chorus ending with "dragon on my back". It's a low-key opener after years of the up-tempo WWRY, yeah, but it had more of the feel the band seemed to be after during the Hot Space tour anyway. Imagine you're a fan who hasn't heard Hot Space yet, you go to a Queen show, and they rock out the opener with Flash, The Hero, and TYMD/WWRY, then they make an abrupt left turn into synth-funk territory. WTF?! Dragon Attack may not be the hard-charging opener the band was used to, but it would have set the tone for the show a little more smoothly than the openers they ended up using did.

I also think Put Out the Fire would have made a pretty good opener for any tour (especially with the pyrotechnic possibilities--flames shooting up as Freddie yells "Put out the fire!" would have been cool to see), but that's an issue for a different thread. Mind creating it for me, Yara? ;)

Interesting comments!

My opinion: they always made great choices in terms of the structure of their set(which was basically always the same, but of course from time to time with different songs). One of the things I find truly fantastic about Queen shows is the energy they are able to create from the first song on. And the fact they always choose an uptempo rocker is very important in that. I would never pick a song like death on two legs because like thunderbolt said, Freddie would not be able to make his big, energetic entrance that dazzles the audience from moment one.

But then again, few bands have a frontman that can look the audience in the eyes with total confidence like freddie. I really admire that about Freddie and I think the band themselves found it very important the first song was an energetic one. think about what they said to each other(deaf 'em, blind 'em and make them scream for more, or something along these lines) before the concerts and Roger's comments on the wembley DVD:-)

[knocked out]

I agree with you guys.

Now you need to help me stand! lol

Dear Yara,

Thank you, W., for the kind words, and thanks, of course, to Stark and the original uploader. I'm happy you enjoyed it.

Now it's time to go back to class, fun is over, but I'll return later, with a vengeance.

[devilish laugh]

lol

Take care!

Thank you for this!

Please repost part 5, I don't research to download!

Hi, robymacster!

It's working great here! Part 5 is working just fine. Let's wait a bit, ok? If it doesn't work for you at all today, I re-upload it, ok? Let's wait a bit. It happens sometimes.

*hug* Take care!

Thanks Yara, I have any problems with mediafire.
