watching part of the stream - Tie Your Mother Down sounds incredible... Brian's pulling out some crazy ad libs to the oem solo.

As feared, pretty much the predictable hits. Only addition of interest is In the lap of the God's and Love Kills. Also nice to see Now I'm here back on the set list. Major disappointment not to hear anything else new. But, I suppose the new fans will be happy with the set list.

setlist is, as expected, queen play the hits with a couple of welcome surprises - love kills and in the lap of the gods.
they're including the show must go on, which i'm very happy to see.... i think they should have added One Vision right after Now I'm Here.... and dropped Who Wants To Live Forever.
Set lists seems a tad bit too short...Sail Away Sweet Sister... this really should be added later in the tour... even if it means subbing out Love Kills.
I think they'll be shifting some stuff around and adding a dropping here and there... it appears they're playing it safe.

Keeping in mind, this is a band with a TON of hits that they know people are paying to hear, I'm pretty pleased with these ones:
Procession intro > Now I'm Here (1974 opener revived, very cool!)
Stone Cold Crazy (Great!)
Lap of the Gods...Revisited (ditto!)
Seven Seas of Rhye (although it's only done up to the guitar solo...)
Killer Queen (finally, since it definitely wasn't a Paul Rogers type song)
Somebody To Love (ditto)
'39
Love Kills (a beautiful arrangement and performance!)
Even I Want It All & Show Must Go On, not necessarily unexpected, but great stuff.
Throw in the expected hits, and Brian's guitar solo (which includes Lost Horizons), and it's really a great show. Easy to look at it on paper and try to analyze what you want to hear vs what they're actually doing, but I tell ya, when you're there, it's all good! :-)

Brian seems to keep "I want it all" in the setlist, not a well known song in North America. I would sub it out for Dragon, or something older.
Anybody notice Bo rhap flub at the end. Brian was lost or could not hear his monitor. Oh well the first show is outa the way, it will get better .

Oh yeah, and we don't have to hear any Bad Company... ;-)
(I actually like Bad Co, just not when I go to a Queen concert!)

I would love to hear Sleeping on the Side Walk (Brian on vocals) and It's Late, Im sure Adam can do a nice live version

I preffer to listen Bad Company and Free songs in a concert by Brian May & Roger Taylor.

I like the setlist. Now i'm here, seven seas, lap of the Gods, somebody to love, very nice!

Was it In 'The Lap of the Gods' (as per the set), or 'In The Lap of the Gods....Revisited' (as I expect)??

Revisited
And I should add, both verses, not just one like the 1986 tour version.

Just a fantastic show from what I saw on the live stream, that has to be the best Queen lighting rig ever, very like Pink Floyd's, loving Roger's gold lame suit, not sure about Glambo's crown tho ?

Love the stage rig. Giant unfolding Q... sadly when Adam motioned to the sound man to put his vocals up he cut the Mic off. .. what a sound engineer! ;)
Terrible. Anyways.
*(yes yes potentially a battery issue when he put it on the clip)
Sounded good! Great video uploads already. Get em before they're gone!
P.s. Adam was reading now I'm here through his glasses

Procession/now I'm here. Excellent fan video

Show looks like it went quiet well. Lots of light and sound, the audience seemed to enjoy it too. The live stream is a great thing, bit beyond me though. :) Over 13000 views in 9 hours, not too shabby at all.
