That concert was incredible. They were amazing, I haven't watched that for ages, I should watch it later.

Might wanna subtract about 8 seconds of Brian's screw up at the end of Hammer To Fall.
Everyone else in the entire world was watching Freddie's cue... except Brian.[/QUOTE] Yeah. What went through my mind is that it was intentional. I mean, "-One more time", how many ways is there to go from there. One more time right? Maybe they did it to get better flow. Just look what they did to "rock you".

I remember watching it with some friends, and, actually being [i]nervous [/i]for Queen. Can you imagine? I was afraid my band would flop in front of all of those folks, in the face of all of those new bands...
At that time, Queen had been quiet in the US, Sadly, there was even some negativity surrounding the Queen name. But, I missed my band. I missed hearing them on the radio, and, I didn't watch a great deal of MTV. And, even in their heyday, Queen weren't often on the telly(I remember only the SNL performance), so that though I listened to their albums, over and over, and, heard them on the radio, actually seeeing them was a rare treat in the US.
It was [i]thrilling! [/i]No doubt not Queen's best live performance EVER, but, a magical one which a great many heretofore non-Queen fans witnessed. And, since this was in the days long before youtube and such, if you [i]were [/i]a Queen fan, especially in the US, it was truly a momentous event.

Boh Rhap segueing into Ga Ga is one of my favourite Queen live moments. A clever choice made by the band, IMHO.

I seem to remember it was [b]Rodger[/b] who made the faux-pas (maybe I'm wrong)[/QUOTE]
No way! The Queen + Paul project was still almost two decades away.

Yeah, now one forgets that it wasn't so easy just a while ago to see footage of live shows... or video clips, for that matter.
