Before the acquaintances thing I added PROBABLY, which clears that I wasn't ASSUMING.

You, however, said that Fred MUST HAVE been at Elvis' gig, otherwise he wouldn't know the quote... that's indeed ASSUMING.

Adding PROBABLY does make you out to be assuming btw. I also didn't say he MUST have seen Elvis...

Hi Sebastian, great topics you've started... very interesting.

Freddie was a big Elvis fan, but is the three chord comment able to put down as truth... it would mean Freddie would HAVE to have seen Elvis' last ever live performance (Elvis In Concert... which possibly he did)... it was only shown once 2 months before Elvis dies on CBS in America. Never released properly, only bootleg.

I asked this along while ago as I'm a fan of both Freddie and Elvis and was really curious, but it wasn't confirmed. [b]Do we know if Freddie EVER seen Elvis live in the 70's???[/b]

[i]- I asked if he ever saw an Elvis' gig so clearly I wouldn't claim he MUST HAVE been at an Elvis' show. No???[/i]

I repeat, only if Freddie had watched the CBS special or had been at an Elvis gig in the 70s (which I doubt as there touring schedule never crossed paths... and anyway it would have been mentioned in one of the many books... especially Freestone's) would he have heard Elvis say this line.

[b]I don't normally get to correct one of the Queen authorities on this site so please just give me this one Sebastian[/b] lol
