@master marathon runner, that is a wicked awesome list~

for myself, Q+PR: New Jersey and Pittsburgh and Cleveland. Good times!!! (especially New Jersey) and decent shows, altho I wished there was more from the PR catalog and more covers like the Jimi Hendrix. Hoped for a Rock n Roll revue, and mostly got what I wanted. Still love hearing "Wishing Well."

Q+ AL, Detroit: took AL awhile to warm up the crowd, sort of until AOBTD. He did fine, the stage set was great, the song list was amazing, overall sound of Brian and Roger roared the right amount of crunchy and smooth and melodic aggression. That dragon attacked. imho AL is not FM but he is just good enough to drive the Ferrari. "Stone Cold Crazy" ya know!

Reading through this and seeing a few solo Brian/Rogers attendances... Be interesting to know if anyone has or knows someone that has been to the hand full of Freddie's solo shows including his "last" public performance with Montserrat Caballé (haw many would the total list be of Freddies solo shows would there be..?).... and the very small handfull of John Deacons (outside of Freddies era) gigs once again how many did he do? any before Freddie's death...? i.e 72-91..?

Saw the original four in the US - 1978 in Dayton Ohio (News of the World) at age eighteen, and in my hometown of Cincinnati, Ohio a year later for the Jazz tour. The Dayton show was only my second of third rock concert. There was a mad crush outside the arena and the audience started the stomp stomp clap way before the band hit the stage. I had expected them to sound "pretty" (a la Night at the Opera) and was blown away by their pace, power, and volume - not to mention Freddie's ferocious stage presence despite the fact that he was wearing a diamond leotard with ballet slippers. Dayton was a few days before or after Houston, so if you have seen the video that is pretty much what I saw the first time out.

For the Jazz show in Cincinnati I got way down in front of the stage and all the hardcore fans sang along to every song. If You Can't Beat Them came early in the set and Fat Bottomed Girls was played later, maybe around mid set. We were so close we made eye contact with the Merc many times. John never moved from the drum riser. Brian May never once looked at the audience in front of the stage but always focused at the back of the arena. Many times he stopped playing to rub his fingers (in pain) together and winced audibly at the tail end of Brighton Rock. He sure has speedy fingers!

They did not play the rock and role medley encore at either show.
