Sao Paolo 1981!!!

A chemistry that evening that was rare, even for Queen. All members are right on top and Freddie has one of his best nights. And he KNOWS it! Imagine Milton Keynes with just a little even móre.
My favorite shows were the two I attended in Providence, RI in 1978 and again in 1980. As far as bootlegs? I love Montreal, Toronto and Chicago from December of 78. They were in the middle of the tour and you can tell by those shows they were really on fire at that point. Outstanding performances!!!
The Rainbow and Earl's Court are my favs
Sao Paulo (pity Brian fucked up solo in STL- that would be the best version EVER!)
Hammersmith'79
Golders Green is also great, especially for such a young band
Wembley Arena'80 (MUSTAPHA is amazing!!!)
http://www.queenzone.com/queenzone/forumnew/forum_topic_view.aspx?Q=696327 Wanna trade? Here's my list...
My favourite live is the show at the Hammersmith Odeon in 75 for Christmas, I also like tha show at the rainbow in 74.
"Fantastic, c'est la vie mesdames et messieurs!" Seaside Rendezvous

yeah, Hammy'75 and Rainbow'74 are my favorites, too. Something from NOTW tour such as "Houston" and Jazz tour such as "Montreal" are stunning.
Je vais bien. Estoy bien.
either Milton Keynes 1982 or Rainbow 20/11/1974.....Copenhagen 1978 & Earls Court 06/06/1977 are good too
Hammersmith, Odeon `75 was brilliant, probably the best show ever filmed...
Queen is dead - long live Queen!

That's what I think too. It was such a special chemistry between them, even both Freddie andBrian were suffering of bad flu (you can even hear Freddie's voice is a bit nasal, but it doesn't matter), the whole show's like a musical celebration. It's awesome... and I guess it's the best guitar solo (Brighton Rock) I've ever heard Brian playing.

Live Aid is also a jewel, especially Crazy Little Thing Called Love - so much vital energy... Perhaps the band's finest 20 mins.

In what concerns Live At the Rainbow'74, if there are no overdubs, then it's indeed Brian's best gig. The guitar is simply awesome.

Earl's Court'77 is a great show too. Especially Freddie's voice was in excelent shape (just listen to the White Man / Prophet's Song medley and you'll know what I mean)... and he was so sweet while talking to the audience!
I LOVE QUEEN! "My guitar was my weapon and my shield to hide behind" (Brian May)
My top five concerts are:

Hammersmith '79
Earls Court '77
Budapest '86
Milton Keynes '82
(people are gonna kill me for this :-) ) Rock In Rio '85
"The years have been unkind... but kind enough!"
I'm so jealous of those that got to see Queen live. Myself, I've only been able to enjoy official releases and bootlegs but my favorite of those would be a tie between Earls Court '77 and Vienna '78.
"You Can Be Anything You Want To Be"

She was my lover It was a shame that she died But the constitution´s right on my side Cos I cought my lover in my neighbours bed I got retribution, filled´em full of lead
copenhagen 13/04/1978

i haven't heard many shows... maybe 20 or so but this is definitely my favourite and the best part of it is for me death on two legs/killer queen/loverboy/i'm in love with my car/get down/waltz/best friend.... i can skip the rest of it (although it's also great) and listen just to this part of the show over and over again... amazing...
the only thing to fear is running out of beer...
I would have to say Earls Court'77 because there is so much early stuff like the prophets song and white man and freddies vocal performances in between are awesome. Also brians three blind mice appearance in the brighton rock solo is awesome. But the highlight is white queen. The solo is diffrent then the studio and sounds awesome. I also like wembely'86.
