Actually the problems were during 'Liar' and occurred on the second night on the 20th.
It's fascinating to watch, but RT's solo wasn't that long.
Thanks for this - I was recounting this from memory and from the Rosie Horide review of the gig. I knew it was from one of the nights......

GT.... Could you please confirm that both night were shot on 32 mm film. Is this also double anamorphic and could be the same quality as Queen rock montreal?
You made us laugh, you made us cry, you made us feel like we could fly!

Unfortunately I can't imagine the band wanting anyone to see this, as it is all rather awkward when it happened, FM is lost for words. In which case if anything, they would use the other night's version.

Well it could be really amusing to put a few songs, including that major problem, of that concert on the bonus disc if a DVD would be released in the future. Let's not forget the problems with Brian's guitar during his guitarsolo on the  Milton Keynes Bowl DVD.

And maybe an interview and the backstage footage of that show on the bonus disc

The shows were actually shot on 2" tape, which was the best quality format at the time.

Hang on.  So the edit that was shown at the cinema then is actually a telecine transfer from 2" tape?
Wow. That's excellent news. the 1970's 2" video tape look is beautiful and I much prefer it to the 80's 1" tape and every other recording format since then.
I'd be over the moon if either one or both of these concerts was released in full as originally shot, ie interlaced!!!
God, i can't stand de-interlaced material.

Queenp found 1-2 years ago the complete recordings from november 19th rainbow on film. Short bits where shown at a convention which I believe was 2010
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Which convention was this at then?
I've not missed a UK convention for 12 years and I've never seen this footage.
Certainly the session GB did at last years UK convention showed only out-takes from recording numerous promo videos

Thank you for being honest and heading straight to the question.

I second that.  My apologies to Gary for some of the harsh things I've said in the past.  Clearly he has turned out to be a force for the good.

Without pointing a finger towards any direction, I must say this unbelieve and a kind of anger a lot of the Queenzoners have gained for the last years, isn't really directly a shot to QP. It's mainly a few figures working for QP who can't deal with the situation in communicating in a decent way at Queenzone. In fact there are quite a few Zoners who have quite a extreme good memory when it come to Queen related issues and anyone who thinks to fool those people by carrot dangling etc. get's punished for what he deserves.

So be nice for people, keep your word and you get a lot of useful en helpful information back from the boys and girls on Queenzone.

Great to know this - much better Telecine than film...

Hold on, if the power cut out during Liar on the second night, then what date are the 3 trident reel-to-reel tracks from? (Son And Daughter, Stone Cold Crazy and Liar)

They must either be from the previous night at the Rainbow, or some completely different date. Any idea guys?

Very good observation !  So then they are very likely from the first night, unless the gap in Liar has been edited out.  Unfortunately we still can't make a 100% conclusion here.
