"ITTWWC performance on live aid was RUINED by technicals problems. We can hear some people talking through the P.A. during the song, and Freddie looked very annoyed. That's sad, it could have been THE song of the day :( "
I have it and yes, it did have its technical difficulties, but still was a pleasure to see and Freddie sang that song with such emotion on that day especially. A true treasure to have.

Check with queencollector.com. All of Queen's main performance and 'Created' are available on one of his tapes.

Apparently the BBC have big plans for the 20th anniversary of Live Aid next year. I would imagine that they will re-show it.

"So, will QP ever release this footage, and the entire Queen set from Live Aid in some DVD form or perhaps in the GVH3 dvd? Or should I hold my breath that it would never be released?"
All bands that appeared at Live Aid did so under the proviso that it was a one-off and no product (audio or video) would ever be issued.

ITTWWC wasn't part of the main Queen set. Brian and Freddie came back on just before the end of Live Aid. After that everyone came back on to sing Do They Know It's Christmas (even though it wasn't). You can hear talking and noises all the way through it but for me it was the song of the day. I taped it off the tv on the day.

Is that last song also called "Feed The World"? I keep getting confused.
Is there any MP3s of that btw.?

I remember it well, Live Aid.
And indeed when ITTWWC came on and that stupid mike did not work and you heard all rambling with connectors and people talking... Of course someone would "spoil" a Queen performance... Just like almost every pop-programm showed Queen as their last act so the ending titles of the show would run across the screen while Queen was on... AAAARGGGHHHH
But the video footage of Queen at Live Aid? Well... it will be on my site, I will start working on it.

Rien, do you also have the rehearsal footage? also, when are you likely to upload the 3rd and 4th part of When Freddie Mercury met Kenny Everett?
Rien · Member since
I think I don't have the rehearsal material. And the Freddie and Kenny docu will be uploaded every Friday/Saturday (2 to go as you know). Last week I've upgraded my discspace from 300MB to 450 and again it's almost full. So things will be deleted again to make space for the docu (etc).

TY Rien - keep up the good work!!

I have it on DVD along with ITTWWC and rehearsals and interviews etc. Thought I'd better put the original tape to DVD before it deterioates, it's gettinhg on to 20 years old!

I know there is a Yahoo! group that I joined many a moon ago who have got the entire Live Aid (Wembley, I guess) on VCDs.. I never really followed it up.

If your after more than the Queen part of Live Aid, you could also try this.
