Queen question on BBC quiz show Pointless Celebrities

@Brenski You are obsessed with saying the same things time and time again about spelling which is pretty sad coming from you who refuses to apologise for accusing me of been a liar when i pointed out and provided evidence of that highway in the distance of Mr Taylor's drum kit with the street lamps quite clear to see.
There is nothing much wrong with my English so maybe its because you are Irish and quite thick that you cannot read!

There is nothing much wrong with my English so maybe its because you are Irish and quite thick that you cannot read![/QUOTE] the streetlights around the venue (Watling St and the A5 as i referred to previously) were not on - because - as i pointed out several times. it doesn't get dark until 9:45 in June. also, you said you remembered leaving the venue (Leeds) and the all the lights were blacked out. then you changed it to MK. which proves you were NOT remembering anything at all. for the last time. street lights in the UK do not come on until late during summer. so at 8pm - when the band arrived on stage (and during Action This Day) there would be no street lights on anyway - hence no power blackout. you can't cite a lighting blackout. please read this: carefully: >> the timing for street lighting may have changed, but back in the early 80s it was (as i posted previously) ½ hour after sunset - ie during civil twilight. sunset june 5th = 21:17 (9.17pm), civil twilight = 21:45 (9:45pm). >> you can't claim a blackout before 9:45pm - as the lights would NOT be on at that time in June. ATD was very early in the set - about 8:12pm - it was still light out. or ask other people who were actually at Milton Keynes just how light it was. or better still, wait until June 5th this year, step outside at 8pm and see how fucking light it is...and make a note of when it gets dark - 9:45pm! then come back and admit - there wasn't a blackout at MK in 82. the MK gig finished before 10pm. Queen gigs typically are between 1h30m and 1h45m. only a small number have ever exceeded 2hrs - MK (at 1h47m was at the longer end of queen shows) but still 13 minutes short of 2 hrs. that's my last point on this. if you can't accept the obvious then keep arguing with yourself. i'm out. you will keep coming back. that's up to you. why can't you just agree to disagree.

Queen usually do a two hour set so by 10pm street lights would be on right? When Queen were on the last two songs thre was clearly no lamps on behind Taylors drum kit
and you still have not apologised yet as you said time and time again that there was no street lighting in the first place or a road come to that.
Apology?

No they didn't.

On most (head line) tours they played about a 90 minute set. Sometimes as much as 100 mins. Two hour sets were not "usual". If you look back sets of two hours or more were pretty rare.

Before you come back with they said or a member of Queen productions said they played two hours, they may have done but it doesn't mean it's an accurate figure. Do you remember the adverts for live Killers "As seen by one million fans" and "Two hours that will last forever"

The European Jazz tour didn't play to a million people and the album wasn't two hours long, neither was the average set list. Queen productions were great at inventing figures, size of the lighting rigs, PA systems, audience sizes were all at some point claimed to be larger than reality. Just like your two hour set lists.

Oh well you'l have to take that up with Queen productions then because that is probably where i saw that piece of information.
