As for Q+:
Reaching Out/TYMD (with Paul)

Yeah! I saw that live..........actually I loved the part where Lose Yourself was playing, and Brian's guitar kicked in, and the crowd erupted :D

The worst is the One Vision. [/QUOTE]

Worse than Tear it Up? I find the One Vision intro exciting enough. Doesn't quite reach the same heights as intros in earlier tours, though.

I never knew Brian played (even if its just a single chord) in Lose Yourself !
Hope I can find it on youtube!
Queen: Roger Taylor, Mike Grose, Freddie Mercury, Brian May.

Intro thunder/We Will Rock You fast (Jazz tour, some of Crazy tour, later Montreal '81)

WWRY (F) is just perfect opener![/QUOTE]

I certainly agree and have to add - Procession/Father to Son (Queen & Queen II tours)
Magic tour openings was also stunning. Actually there is not one that I can say bad or not impressive. Queen knew very well how to prepare and perform a rock show.

Yeah I saw that live too! Nice one. And then Brian kicks in with the TYMD riff! The audience went nuts!

The Lose Yourself Intro was official released on the dvd Q+PR Super Live In Japan. It's not on youtube. But you can hear it on other show. Check this link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8zcFlETN9Ko

Best show opener for me is "Now im Here" as it is such a statement that the band have landed on the stage!
Hammersmith 75 version was legendary but i would say Hammersmith 79 was an improved rockier version!
Practice makes perfect!

They didn't open with "Now I'm Here" in 1979

Nobody cares about that bleeding Sheffield gig. There are literally hundreds of better gigs to listen to.

For me it's a toss between Flash/Hero and Processon/Father To Son.

Your actions weren't funny days ago. Neither is the constant spamming. Please do as you promised, and leave the board.

1a. Flash/The Hero (a shame the Milton Keynes DVD isn't the same as the VHS)
1b. Procession/Father To Son
1c. Intro/Tie Your Mother Down
1d. Thunderclaps/We Will Rock You

Worst: '82 North American tour. So odd to see Freddie standing alone under the spotlights doing the 'Rock It' intro, for a weak track that started off a rather weak set list.

Yeah. Flash and The Hero did it for me. Yes, it is shame the DVD is a different edit...depriving the world of Freddie's best ever duck walk in the instrumental section of Now I'm Here...shame
