IINNUENDO

I didn't realize it was a mystery that only half (if that) of the show is on the DVD release.

I believe Taylor's speech is on the DVD, though it is a weird place and you are even prompted to 'Watch full version' - or something like that.

Plus, Bob Geldof and Spinal Tap aren't even on the official VHS release.

The important Queen half was on the DVD because it was easy to get the rights to those songs.

The VHS was cut because some of the performers were unhappy with they're performance. The DVD was cut for whatever reasons & I think they polietly put Innuendo's disapearence down to "technical dificulties"

worst performance on there was annie lennox screaching under pressure

I don't know, Zucchero was pretty awful too. I don't know why they left the Extreme medley off of the DVD because it was great performance and a true tribute to Freddie and Queen.

i got extreme performance on the vhs from the tribute.good job they made

yeah the extreme tribute was class infact they shudda been on later in the set not 3 oclock or whatever time it was

Those who mentioned "worst performers", do you really think Liza was better?
Just curious.

As I was one of the lucky soles to be there on the day, a number of things were missed off the video release, don't have the DVD but I think this is edited even more.

From what I can recall, the following was missed of the video -

Def Leppard - Animal
Extreme - More than words

Robert Plant - Innuendo (sounded great on the day once his mic started to work, maybe it lost something on TV).

Liz Taylors Speech - this did not go down very well as despite her best efforts Roger's drum kit with the Queen logo could be seen behind her and everybody wanted to get on with rocking - so she got heckled quite a lot.

It was a great day, especially as we really had no idea who was actually playing until we arrived at Wembly that morning.

Oh yes and Spinal Tap and Sir Bob - got the chop aswell.

I forgot those two. Wonder why!!
