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!!!

Oh man...they were in Providence? Well, in 1978 I wasn't even born yet and in 80 depending on what time of year, I was only one year old. Damn I missed it!

Of the bootlegs I've only seen ne concert so far. Hyde Park is really good so far. I can't wait to see the others though....I'm totally psyched!

Yeah, they played Providence on 11/14/78 and again 8/26/80. That was their last time in Rhode Island but they did play there a few times on earlier tours. Freddie was amazing in 1980. If you have the bootleg from that show you can tell his voice was in great shape that night. I just restored all the photos from those shows recently and they look so much better with the color saturation.

Mine would be December 1980 Wembley arena my first, my first time.

Then Hyde Park 2005 was bloody good too, Paul did a great job and I had assumed I would never see them again.

Could you perhaps share your photos with us?

Wembley

I finally finished the download of Newcastle. 4-12-´79, and I think it really is my fav so far! If QP has a soundboardrecording of that one in the vault it should be the new release! Suberb concert!

I think they should release London 79.12.26 on DVD and CD instead.

They don't need a SBD tape for a release, they need a multitrack recording. I highly doubt they have any other multitracks from the Crazy tour aside from the Hammersmith show, which was certainly multitracked as they had planned to release that compilation album.

TOKYO, BUDOKAN, 25-04-79.

Even though Freddie was completely hoarse, the fans are hysterics and stunning, clapping their hands all the time, singing Teo Torriatte.
The show is available on video (a part only) and on audio (complete)

Is this show on DVD a dream ???!!!!!!!!

Call me an idiot, but isn´t a soundboard a thingy that processes multitracks?

I also think Newcastle'79 is brilliant. I really like it as well.
Btw, when I first heard it I was so surprized with the very hot audience singing almost all of the numbers, sometimes Freddie stops his singing to let them sing...

Tokyo 1-5-1975 has the best setlist ever... Amazing...

Just heard that concert. Great! At last a good recording of Hangman, and it´s great to hear Great King Rat live as well.
But the best setlist? Well...I kinda like songs like BoRhap, STL, WWRYfast and stuff on the list...
