Sometimes i love Queenzone, thank you for taking the time to order the photos.
It looks like there is no costume change, just rehearsal photos and performance photos.
So do you think he was part of the whole show or just came out for Cliff's songs?

You're welcome!
I see 2 possibilities:
1. Dave Clark introduced Freddie and Cliff (which can be heard on soundboard recording of 'Everyone Of Us') and they did 4 songs one after another.
2. The entire musical was performed in the same order (more or less) like on the record and Freddie was coming out 3 or 4 different times on the stage.
I tend to chose the 2nd version. Listen to Born To Rock'n'Roll. Audience members go crazy and shout 'Freddie' multiple times. So it was probably the first song to be performed, just like on the record. Also the beginning of this song is missing. This also indicates it was the 1st song and the taper pressed the button too late.
But there is one thing that makes me wonder. Was there actually any other artists besides Freddie and Cliff? Because I've never seen any photos of someone else from this show. And because of this the 1st version is also possible. I really don't know. I hope someone who was there will see this and tell us. Kurgan maybe?

Is that Peter Straker next to Freddie in the car? I assume the other two are bodyguards.
Cool pics BTW. Thank you for posting them in order!

Yes, it's Peter Straker. The man on the right in the front of that car is Terry Giddings - Freddie's bodyguard who can be seen in many photos with Freddie from the 1980s and 90s. I don't know who is the man on the left.
If anyone is interested I can post all the pics I could find from this day which I tried to arrange in chronological order. It was very important performance for obvious reasons so I spent a few days searching for any pic I could find. I have 25-30 of them if I remember correctly.
