Looking for a picture

Anybody have a high quality version of the picture of freddie during the day at the races tour with his orange/green/white leotard and the white mask on?

Any good?

Does anyone know which show this is from? It's definitely on the UK leg.

Years ago, for some reason I used to think that this picture came from the second Earls Court show. It always seemed to me like I'd seen some short clip with Freddie wearing this mask... I still don't understand where I could see that. Maybe it's just my mind playing tricks on me.

That's awesome! Thanks :D

Do you know of anymore? They're hard to find

A similar photo was used on one of the DVD covers for Earl's Evening Races. 

Thanks :D

I don't think any such video has circulated, but something does indeed tell me that this is the second night at Earls Court.

I honestly can't remember if he wore the mask or not on the second night. It is of course entirely possible that he did. There are also quite a few pictures circulating of him wearing the mask and silver lurex suit.

Yep, that is very possible. It's definitely on the UK leg, as you said above. Just using the method of elimination when looking through the shows that they played in May-June 1977, you can come to the conclusion that the pictures above come from some show(s) played in June.

He doesn't seem to have worn this leotard in May, although we don't have too many pics from all those shows. But still it looks like he did tend to wear this leotard more in June other than in May.

My assumptions are that these pictures might come from either one of the two Liverpool shows or the second Earls Court show.

Or maybe even Southampton? We haven't seen any pics from those two shows.

Check out this photo - Mercury with the mask but Deacon's vest isn't on. As far as the limited video footage of 6-7-77 reveals, Deacon kept the vest on all night, so if that's the case, this photo is therefore from May/June 77 but not from the Earls Court shows.

And it's definitely not Liverpool 6-3-77, since a very extensive photo collection from that show seems to have taken a photo at nearly every minute of the show.

Isn't this fun ?!
