This whole docu is just a very smart move of its creators to get their hands on great pro shot footage. Well done!
Hope you didn't have to pay too much!
Will you ever trade the footage? Maybe only with people like Greg Brooks? He has enough rarities to offer/leak. :)

Loved the documentary.. Thanks.. Was all this footage from the original reels? Seems Some could be from YouTube ...? Remember to have à copy from Ahoy 1977 somewhere with à few minutes. Got it from technical engineer from the NOS back in THE ninetees . Recall death on two legs ... THE background music of THE doc was too loud when people were interviewed. Small thing though [/QUOTE]
I am so sorry but the Rotterdam 77 has nothing to do with the fucking Nederlandse Omroep Stichting (NOS). So you are sooooo wrong!
The Rotterdam reels are 2 of them 16mm of them. Recorded by the famous camera man... and no where EVER in the hands of the NOS... don't talk about the brown stuff on this website... because I am still awaiting critical reviews... I am hoping for them the last 24 hrs....
Don;t talk bull shit or hoard anything about a camera man which does not excist from the Nederlandse Omroep Stichting (NOS) , they had nothing to do with rotterdam 77. So don't fucking hoard another Hangman acetate! [/QUOTE]

Hey man... chill out! This is about 22 years ago wjhen i saw the footage for the last time.I had a few minutes of footage from that era. Seem to remember Freddie wore the green.orange leotard, just like Earls Court. But the footage came from the archives of the NOS. and yes it could be another place in the Netherlands where Queen performed
A no... it was no camera man but the technical director of the archive and program department. Must find a way to contact him for the right info.

Well, since you asked for it a critical review Sikke....
I could be a typical fan and moan about the shortness of the rare clips and that the Rotterdam 1982 label is STILL wrong after it was first noticed and pointed out on the promo advert what seems like ages ago, but instead I'll stick to a purely technical aspect of it and the only criticism I have:
The Killer Queen piano towards the start of the programme is TOO loud from the left channel and VERY annoying, making it harder to hear what people are saying.
Also, from my perspective, there's nothing worse than a documentary where music plays constantly in the background.
Thankfully this didn't last, although there were again a few moments later where music played unnecessarily over archive interview clips.
That aside, I thoroughly enjoyed watching it despite not speaking a word of Dutch myself.
As a fan, it is, yet again, frustrating to know that there is more footage that wasn't used, but that, sadly, is the lot of a documentary.
Thank you for researching and producing something new that contains unseen material :)

True about the background music.... way too loud and annoying.Can imagine Kroon Media added music in the background as for copying reasons and make it more difficult spreading this content on You tube and Ebay etc. Futher than that. totally awesome documentary

Hi sorry man , I over reacted. Couldn't edit anymore since I was ready quoted. But sorry for being harsh.
Well what you describe could only be Rotterdam 1978, at least the leotard.
Do you still have the VHS ?

I enjoyed seeing the footage very much even though I did not understand most of what was said.
Thank you Sikke, and also to everyone else involved.

Ik zal mijn best doen, is een lange tijd geleden en ben inmiddels 2 keer verhuisd; banden van Queen liggen bij ouders, zal van de week een poging doen.Heb veel banden van Marjan en Rinus Walstijn en ik geloof ook nog een paar opnames van Frank Palstra...die destijds de footage voor de Fanclubdagen verzorgde.
will do my best to contact him.Vhs tapes of Queen are at my parents house. Got a lot of VHS tapes from Rinus and Marjan of the Queen fanclub conventions; will give it a try coming week to locate the VHS tape.

This is my first post in a very long time.
I'm currently watching this documentary whilst at work, since my only speaking and listening tongue is English, I'm running the documentary in the background only checking up on it every now again (i.e when new archive footage appears)
I will say from documentary and academic perspective; watching this reminded me a lot of my university days as the production work (i.e editing, narrative etc) was very amateur throughout.

Not a bad documentary, but I don't speak Dutch so it would be great to have subtitles...at least.

Will you ever trade the footage? Maybe only with people like Greg Brooks? He has enough rarities to offer/leak. :)

Indeed , the aim was that there are already so many Docu's out there. So we wanted to project their succes in The Netherlands, what really was a unique concept.People already now about their arguments after Hot Space, or how big the success was from the South American tour 81, or how their carreer went down after touring South Africa... there was no need to tell those stories again....
. And of course Queen in Holland : that goes a long with as many Dutch footage we could find/afford
