Hey, I`d like to something about this picture and what a city, year and what a date of concert after that Queen did damage.

Lol.
That's HILARIOUS!!!
They obviously spilled some fluids on the carpet and broke two door windows (guestimation would be someone was super-drunk and didn't know a sliding door from a push-door.)
Whatever it is, I find this hilarious and think..."Wow, that's scarce!...how on Earth did you uncover it?"

The bill has Sept 4-5 1982 date, not 1980.
This site http://www.queenconcerts.com/live/queen/hotspaceus.html tells that Queen played Vancouver, Canada on Sept 4.

Everything is allowed when it comes to Freddie's birthday.

How funny is that total cost?

And the trashed dried flower arrangement. There's reckless hedonistic abandon, and then there's that. lol
For reference, that total today in Canadian dollars would be $1,814.70.

Has to be Freddie who got into a bitch fight.

Or maybe they just had fun?
It's rock and roll. Bands smash things.

Yeah, it's so rock and roll to trash a dried flower arrangement and two door windows, yet the t.v. and walls were left untouched

Queen's 82 US tour was probably their greatest excess on the road. Even on stage there were many indications of it, through various bits of Freddie banter between songs..

[QUOTE]Ozzy Osbourne once smashed up a hotel room with a dead shark while he was part of Black Sabbath, bandmate Tony Iommi has said.
The Sabbath guitarist revealed that Osbourne cut a dead shark apart and drenched the room with itsblood as he got bored of taking drugs.
Iommi told the New York Post: "With drugs always you get bored, so you must do something to one another.
"Like Ozzy hauling a shark through a window, dismembering it and soaking our room in blood."
Talking about his friendship with the frontman, Iommi explained: "I talk to Ozzy couple times a week. He's up, down. I love him, although his attention span lasts three seconds."
[/QUOTE] [QUOTE]Won't get fooled again On August 23, 1967, while touring with fellow British Invasion band Herman's Hermits, The Who's Keith Moon observed his 21st birthday by raising a celebratory toast—and a dozen more—to the spirit of uncontainable destruction that marked both his drumming and his lifestyle. He hurled a five-tier cake into the crowd partying in his hotel room, promptly ruining the carpet and setting off a food fight. Someone even emptied all the fire extinguishers on his floor (in a post-trashing interview, Moon claimed the damages totaled $24,000). When a police officer showed up, Moon, stripped down to his underwear, jumped into a nearby Lincoln Continental, drove it through a fence, and abandoned it at the bottom of the Flint Holiday Inn's pool. In a final flourish, he slipped on a piece of marzipan and knocked out his front teeth. The officer escorted Moon to the dentist before throwing him in jail for a few hours. Forty years on, this incident remains the granddaddy of all rock and roll lodging smashups. The Who were subsequently banned from all Holiday Inns for life.[/QUOTE]
