'Who played what': live and studio differences

You guys have been saying that Freddie played piano for "Save Me" instead of Brian, but on the "We Will Rock You" DVD, Brian definitely plays piano for most of the song. Was this just a one-time thing or are a lot of people here mistaken?

Sometimes when Brian started to play guitar Freddie began to play piano, sometimes he didn't.

Obviously, a lot of the drum parts in the studio were programmed on a drum machine - no real drums. I guess a lot of Hot Space for starters

That's right, but if Roger programmed them in the studio and played by himself on live shows that doesn't count to this my list.

Only if someone else from Queen played them in the studio!

Brian played acoustic on CLTCL which he didn't in the studio.

Is it possible that Freddie played piano on Teo Torriate in Japan while Brian played the guitar (before they got Fred Mandel)?

But Fred played the piano after the second chorus (except on Hot Space tours). Those piano parts had been taken by Brian in the studio cut. That`s what we meant
