Magic tour soundcheck (Chief Mouse version)

Do you know if the rehearsal footage included on the Wembley DVDs are truly from Wembley, or if that is another mislabeling?

Without a doubt it's the same tech rehearsals in early June, but perhaps a different day?

They're clearly in a rehearsal space, not in Wembley Stadium. And even though they had a day off after the Newcastle show, there's not a chance they set up their rig in an entirely different place when their crew had to carve out an end of the stadium to fit their stage into. Nor would the band need to rehearse when they're well into their stride a month into the tour.

And finally - look at how short Deacon's hair is in the footage. It's definitely long before Wembley.

Thank you for this one Chief.

Thank you Chief for the nice video,
Wizard for the keen observation and HyperBoy for the subs (though I don't really need subs~ next time if you guys need any French translation for Queen's stuff I might give a hand).

I like how hard they practised. They totally deserve their success.

Deacon's hairstyles are more important than most people think ;-) Handy for identifying dates.

Thank you !!!

No Queen sticker on Rogers Bass drum yet :)

Thanks.
