Well, it was a nice prog. Nothing too surprising and pretty run of the mill. Though, it was nice to hear the same cock riding story again from Trip! But I think it sounded better in the Freddie's Loves prog.

Some little stories I hadn't heard before like, the first video attached to Keep Yourself Alive was a cartoon about a train. NOT the later attached video to the track where there were a mixmash of images, e.g. boxing, real train, etc. etc.
And of course the dissection of Queen's, and more importantly, Freddie's earnings. There was a moment just before Mike Moran was about to be interviewed in a studio - a quick shot shows him playing the piano for the guy and panning to a Queen Greatest Hits music book, then to the interview. But they didn't let us hear that part!! Arrrrgghhhh! I don't know about any of you, but to me, hearing Mike play some Queen hits on the piano would've been very interesting.

Overall, worth a couple of looks. But not much for repeat viewings. It was shown at 8pm, but if you missed it, it'll be repeated tonight at 12:25am.

Peace,
Adam.

P.S. Watch out for the guy with the banana on his mic! Wow...lol!! Or even the tribute band guy after that. Eeek.

I thought it was quite entertaining.

I'm listening to bananaman again as I write this.
What a laugh he was......
What the hell we fighting for?

damn... missed it. I'll tape it later on. Thanks for the info though!

I recorded it too, so I'll put something together. Although, I'm not sure on how to deliver it, if you know what I mean. Maybe try passing it onto someone on hear for torrent?

EDIT: It's recorded direct onto the computer. I can turn it into any video file format. But like I said, what format and how to pass it on? Through the hub?

Peace,
Adam.

Trouble with the Hub is not everyone can access it... why not torrent here on QZ? I'm sure many non UK Queenzoner's will want to see it (along with the Freddie Loves doc.)

Exactly how I did mine Adam.

Aint got a clue how to torrent it though. Might look into it

I'm in the same place, Ogre! I'll do some tests.

Peace,

Nice one, Ogre! I'll leave it to you. Btw, thanks for sharing that torrent place. I think that could be very useful to keep bookmarked.

Peace,
Adam.

Nice to see that i'm now seeding to people.

I should point out that it is a *.DAT file that i'm uploading so some people might need to change the extension from .dat to .mpg
I just double click on the file and 'open with'
windows media player

thanks for this... wanna copy this post into "sharing the music" section as well?

It was a pretty fair reflection - not too negative or scandalised, but two points stick in my mind...

First: most of Freddie's finances were divided four ways - which means that the other members of Queen are just as wealthy.

Second: Freddie's been dead for over twelve years, and he earns more per annum deceased, than I ever will living! Who says that "proper" jobs are secure!

Adam, get in touch if you are able to torrent it. It would be great.

i would suggest www.divx.com for the file format.

Current torrent seems to be working well so far. Thanks for the show, Ogre.
DJ's the man we love the most

Yes, thanks Ogre. This is the first time I've downloaded anything Queen related via bittorent.

I sure am getting screwed on download rate vs. upload. My share ratio is like 150%. I'm upping around 30k and d/l as low as 2. Is that normal?
