Love Kills' inclusion recently is very interesting - probably something to do with the fact that they're preparing to that among the unreleased Freddie stuff that they've hinted at?

The set list is pretty close to being really good, I'd say - they're clearly making an effort to not only include the obvious 'Greatest Hits' catalog.

How long was the show?

So where are the songs from the early albums he promised? Except the Procession tape intro

I'm actually really liking that set list. Looking forward to the Aussie shows even more now! :)

I think that the number of songs from their first three albums, 40 years ago or more would constitute "stuff from the early albums" as promised. I don't know how long the gig was, but it presents as kind of short. Time will tell. Holding out for Sydney August 26!

'39 was also after Love of My Life, and there was a short drum battle, I wanna say before Under Pressure but memory is failing.

I know that there weren't really any deep songs from the old days, but seeing songs like Now I'm Here, Stone Cold Crazy, In the Lap of the Gods, and Killer Queen return was really awesome. And opening with Now I'm Here was fitting for the American Tour. I felt like it was a very strong performance with lots of energy, and the set flowed so amazingly well. The songs felt so connected.

Well... technically you're correct, but after reading Brian's comments I was hoping for a setlist similar to those from the 1973-1976 era

I do hope they move it around a bit, I want to see Long Away and Brian's twelve string RS....

Killer Queen.
simply GREAT !

On the photo of the setlist you can see a

V01

on the top of the right side.

This could stand for Version 01 and be a hint to different setlists. Also I expect that we will see DSMN again.

No Break free, no Magic! That would probably change for European dates...

I expected 'Keep yourself alive' to be on it....also a piece of 'Liar' would be great....

I think you need to calm down a little Pittrek. You are being very negative towards Queen lately, and in my view you are being very unfair.

They start with "NIH" after the procession opening, then they play SCC, Killer Queen and all the classics that people want to hear. How can you ask that question with a set list like that?
There has to be a balance. They haven´t played NIH. SCC and KQ with Paul Rodgers, so i think this is a vrey positive thing for them to do. You will never have a setlist with only the eraly stuff.

I am very happy with this setlist, and i´m happy with the way they sound together.

Dang. Wish I had a go-pro.

All the videos I'm finding online really focus on Lambert and his wardrobe ... EVEN to the detriment of the reconfiguring stage rig.


That's pretty damn cool.

Still looking forward to these gigs
