I have a quick question.
In many documentaries, including the bonus DVD to Wembley you can see a short scene, where Freddie practices his voice, Roger comes to the rooms and joins him, and they end up laughing.
I always thought it comes from Wembley, but today I noticed Freddie's clothes. He is NOT dressed like he was in Wembley, he is dressed like in Knebworth.
So the quick question :
Does this footage come from Knebworth or from Wembley ?
What do you think ?

I’ve always thought that it came from Knebworth, and the bit where Brian is tuning his guitar.

Just out of curiosity, have you seen this before? It's got more backstage Knebworth footage in it.
I watched carefully and, based of Freddie's clothing, I saw backstage footage from no less than 4 different shows. Just how much backstage footage do they have, really.

There are parts from Mannheim, Slane, Wembley, and Knebworth.
White jacket, red and white jacket, yellow jacket, and yellow shirt respectively.

Bob, I thought the red and white jacket was from Budapest.

Crap.. of course you're right.
To confirm it, John is wearing the shirt with the giant baseball on it as he does at the Budapest show.

interesting question - but from where the rest of the similar shots are coming , like Brian 'tuning up' and John backstage with the bodyguard (start of MY) - it all look like wembley backstage? DoRo's artistic freedom always meant twisting reality into fantasy...
A few month ago we discussed the magic years shots, and I added captions over the youtube footage posted earlier.
