Agreed with MadTheSwine (since we were the only ones there)... that other guy was a more "Broadwayish" version of Mercury - so he should be used for the more campy songs like Bicyle Race, Don't Stop Me Now, Seven Seas etc.
That guy would not be able to pull off any of the slow numbers or even the ones that need a full voice, a la Kind of Magic, One Vision & Radio Ga Ga.

I've just found a Brazilian girl in the Montreal show!

At 2:16, she says: "Ai, que lindo!"
This means some like "Oh, it's beautiful!"
\o/
We got lots of every nationality here... really, every one... In fact, we have a relatively large Portugese population (relative to Canada that is)... Toronto probably has a lot more, though.
The Toronto show was absolutely spectacular.
I will post a full review tomorrow.
The setlist was the same.
Dare I say, this was far better than seeing Queen + Paul Rodgers.
Stay tuned..

I am almost regreting to have bought the Hammersmith ticket for Q + AL, plus an additional flight from Brazil to England.
Should have gone to Canada instead! Martel is absolutely amazing.

That is shocking news really. But I guess Paul Rodgers ruined a lot with his bluesy voice. :)

I second that. More Martel, please!
I've just found a video where Marc Martel is shaving his beard to let just the moustache in and sings a snippet of Killer Queen 'channeling' Freddie.

Actually, I think that was the best part. The fact that he was adding his own flavour to the Queen catalog added certain freshness and life to many of the songs.
And likewise, with May and Taylor playing the Free and Bad Company songs, they never sounded better, as far as I'm concerned.
Review of QE coming up shortly.
Any info on the 'never before seen' footage they were apparently going to show on the screens Bob?

Most of the time the European fans are in advantage but now with this QE you guys in the US and Canada seem to be the lucky ones...
I've liked pretty much all I've seen, which is rare for Queen performed by other musicians!

Maybe some very slight bits. But nothing extraordinary.
I Was going to ask the same question, they keep advertizing never before seen footage. ?
