Boy oh boy Robert Plant

I rather think Paul Young has a good voice for that song. Maybe he was a little off that day but I still liked his version.

To see the majority of the concert you need the tape or laserdisc version. That version is close to 3 hours long.

I dont know if the people who were at the tribute remember, But i remember when Extreme came on stage and started the medley...the sound was SHIT!!! But It was sorted for the beginning of KYA. But I enjoyed Innuendo, although when that kicked in it took a few lines before you could here Robert Plant. Different, but enjoyable.

I don't remember Extreme sounding bad. I think I was just so bowled over by the medley. i thought it was very brave, and done very well (i.e with a certain amount of their own interpretation). Although I liked Metallica at the time, I always thought they were a strange choice for the openers of the show, as any non-Queen/rock fans watching on TV might have been put off, whereas if they stuck it out until Extreme might have been more encouraged.

Generally, though, I thought the whole thing was fantastic. I discovered Queen too late to see them in concert, so this was the best I was gonna get!!!

YEah

I thought Extreme was the best band from the first half (I was really into them at the time and still are into them and Nuno's new band)

The similarities are kept being made of Innuendo and Kashmir

To me they sound nothing alike - I think both songs kick arse though (Innuendo just a little more) but they don't sound the same at all

Not from my trained musical ear anyway

Top 3 acts from the 2nd half of the Tribute Concert

1) George Michael (I don't think I need to explain the
reason)
2) Robert Plant (Excellent - the only reson people didn't
like his Innuendo is cos it didn't sound like Fred -
but then again who does or did, Rob brough his own style
and performance to Innuendo and CLTCL and the kicked
ass)
3) Gary Cherone great performance and sheer energy - great
rock performance)

Guys guys guys!!! and gals of course.... Extreme was the best act of that night!!!!
And to also think I didnt know who extreme was until I saw the tributre concert I was freaking impress!
,massively ego'd band writing their own anthems in there little rock circuits... but in solid memory they have Queen as their patriots. totally rocks.

I think after being spoiled by too many tribute shows to this day I can safely say when Extreme came out with that medley on '92 it was another way of bringing back the live Aid vibe to the event with a few diffrent song..... electrifying!

then metallica came on...**I shut my mouth**

Actually Metallica opened the Show!

Yes I remember Extremes sound being a touch distorted as they came on but although not a massive fan I was impressed with there medley it certainly was right for the occasion.

The best acts of the second "Queen+" half IMO were James Hetfield (I loved SCC), Robert Plant, George Micheal and I also though Elton did alright with TSMGO. It seems strange analysing performances from a DVD or Video when you have actually been to the event. At the time I thought Paul Young was alright but watching it back I think you probably choose the wrong song!

Seal was flat singing WWTLF? No way...

They just performend it a semitone lower than Queen's live version, to make it that much easier on Seal's voice. He doesn't have the biggest vocal range in the world! Nonetheless, I thought he did an excellent job with the song.

Agreed... Paul Young was ASS on Ga Ga.

With out Freddie there I wasn't expecting much but all in all it was quite well structured. Good show.

Loved the Hetfield's version of Stone Cold Crazy (fav moment of the evening), George Michael, Extreme. And Robert's "Crazy Little Thing..." was absolutely awesome!!!!!

Because they played WWTLF lower, Brian's solo sounded a bit weak IMO- not bad, he played it all right but it totally lost its power- was flat...
Not the only one- generally changing the key didn't help the music...

robert plant on innuendo was great! come on! that song fits him perfectly! it was the ONLY thing of the concert worth watching...i have to admit...i've only watched the tribute concert once...and was very disappointed...i don't ever plan on watching it again or even owning it...probably because i can't stand 95% of the artist that were there...david bowie and robert plant were the only ones worth watching

Geee, I personally thought that Bowie was awful, so bloody pretenscious...

just had to put on robert plant's innuendo...that little interlude he does...just gorgeous and enchanting...i think i like it better because i always thought innuendo sounded a little too over processed...this version is just raw, and plant's voice conveys such emotion...btw i'm biased because led zepp is my second fav band right behind queen

I think I'm the only one who doesn't care for Led Zep...
----------------------------------------------------
you're not ;)

led zepp has the sexiest sounding music ever...just put on you shook me...it has such a dirty bluesy sound...i love it! they're geniuses...blues was born here in the south, but led zepp perfected it...leave it to the brits they know how to do it right :) but still queen reigns superior

Like I said before...LED ZEPPELIN ROCKS!!btw ms.Lurex, you forgot to mention Jimmy Page-problably the most important member of the group.
