Great! Thanks for sharing. Awesome video. I cannot believe the size of the crowd. I tend to agree with critics, compared with earlier tours, Magic Tour was somewhat uninspiring at times. Miss the 80s
Can anybody extract the video and upload it as a file? Would be much appreciated! ))
Can anybody download this video from this site ?
It would be great. Thanks in advance!
The critics were probably an elite clique of u2 loving Irish hacks
That's actually a shocking way to report it on the national news. They seriously belittled the performance . Guaranteed they would be right up u2 or springsteen

I dunno - all the papers seemed to slag the performance.

The third review is neutral enough not really a music review
Slane wasn't the most brilliant of the Magic Tour shows, with all the fights and the lack of interest of the band members. Just from a visual perspective, i think it was the best show, all daylight, where the focus are the band members and the sea of people in the audience, timeless.

If it was up to me, i'd picked up that show to be filmed for the above reasons, luckly i was not the one who made the choice and they recorded the musically better Wembley and Budapest.

Outstanding - many thanks.
That footage really puts everything in perspective, from the size of the crowd to the overall atmosphere of the day.
And of course, any new pro footage of Queen is great to have.
