Have I missed anything !?

It would be really nice if this discussion could produce a 2 or 3 DVD set of all the available footage not used on the official release.

I only have the audio of the MTV Japan footage. It's gotta be out there somewhere. But I have the rest.

For those who have that 2004 documentary "The Jewels":

Was the Rio footage (the audio) the same as the official release, with the audience noise artificially pumped up?

Is this a bootleg/pirate of the official release?

A snippet of I Want To Break Free is seen on the Great Pretender documentary, at the beginning of the doc.
It's from the first night, but if I remember correctly, the audio wasn't from the same venue of the video.

The 1st few seconds weren't, it was taken from Wembley (Freddie saying "Hey!" Before Brian starts playing the opening lick is the hint). The audio only shifted to Rio at the part where Freddie starts singing

So this video was shown on TV? I wonder why a better copy hasn't shown up, yet?

But it just doesn't seem like it - there are no cuts for commercials, like there are on the footage of the second night (or anything else that's taped off TV). The video leaked long before the average person had access to software and powerful enough computers to edit out commercials and keep the video in high quality.

Do all Brazilian TV stations run commercials?

They did back in the mid 80s, before cable.
