“Britain’s most regal band awaits your presence…” Melody Maker, August 1986.

Queen - Magic in the Park - Live at Knebworth Park 1986 - Multi Format release August 09 2016

The English rock band Queen was well known for its live musical acts. Diverse musical catalogues, large sound systems, lighting rigs, innovative pyrotechnics and extravagant costumes often gave shows a theatrical nature. Artists such as Bob Geldof, David Bowie, George Michael, Kurt Cobain (in his possible suicide note), and Robbie Williams have expressed admiration for lead vocalist Freddie Mercury's stage presence.

The Magic Tour in 1986 was to be Queen's last tour. On this occasion the tour did not extend beyond Europe and included two back-to-back shows at Wembley Stadium in London (where INXS and Status Quo were the supporting acts) as well as one concert at Budapest in Hungary. One striking image of Mercury from the Wembley show would be regularly used for promotional purposes (e.g. the Tribute Concert posters, the memorial statue at Montreux, the cover of the Greatest Hits III album, the Musical billboards). Throughout the tour, Mercury would regularly make an impromptu statement on stage that denounced the rumour that Queen were about to split up. As "God Save the Queen" played over the PA system at the end of each show, Mercury would come on stage wearing a cloak and a replica of the crown jewels. After this tour, Queen were credited as being one of the first rock acts to employ the over-sized screen (or Jumbotron) at live concerts.

To celebrate the 30th anniversary of the last concert of the band, Queen is releasing for the first time "Live at Knebworth Park", in its entirety and for your enjoyment. Shot during the Magic Tour, it shows Freddie Mercury at the height of his game............


PROPERTY OF QUEEN PRODUCTIONS FOLKS![/QUOTE]

The most glaring tell-tale sign - Queen only celebrates 40th anniversaries. 30 years is nothing :-)

Looks like four songs there. I smell bullshit.

It's just a joke. But not a very good one.

Soon as I saw the line about Cobain's "possible suicide note" it gave the game away......that just would not be included in an official press release.

Although the error of stating the inclusive of three bonus tracks from Spain, but then listing four songs was the sort of mistake that gives it an air of authenticity!!!

Sorry Mr. Jokes, but this kind of jokes aren't a bit funny (at least to me).

I mean, you can joke about this concert, even about the release of this concert! But, do it in the right way, or don't do it.

Still. the part of including three bonus from Barcelona (with a second "with" after ITLOTG... R) is quite funny. If that ever happens to QPL, I wouldn't be surprised.
Don't forget my collection of demos and outtakes: http://goo.gl/uQARhn PM me if you want any [leaked] multitrack. Ya se ven los tigres en la lluvia.

"So much ado about nothing"

It took 5 minutes to refute this topic, but yet several QZer's are excessively perturbed by this fake announcement.

Why am I not surprised???

Greggy must be "ROTFLMAO" uncontrollably.

I thought it was kinda funny. Actually glad it wasn't true as that would probably mean there wouldn't be a Hyde Park release.

Knebworth will never happen. The tape was deleted. They told us this at the convention while premiering Wembley on dvd.

Define "the tape"

This is great news. After this I heard they're going to release full HD footage of that infamous party with the dwarves and cocaine trays. I heard from an inside source that this will include exclusive previously unknown footage of Paul Prenter blowing one of the dwarves.

AND I hear it's coming in a box set with a 12" vinyl single of Anita Dobson's 'Talking of Love' with the original picture sleeve, and replicas of the party streamers used at the launch party of that single.
