The leotard was stolen from Freddie's dressing room following a gig in 1978.
I think the guy who stole it is a big Formula 1 fan as I have seen him waving it around towards the end of several races. The police however refuse to take me seriously whenever I alert them to his presence.

fatty.

fatty, the authorities are in on it. No wonder they don't take you seriously. They don't seem to care when I report WATC being stolen and played at a lot of sports events. It's like every cop has something against Queen!

You're wrong. Close, but wrong! Freddie wore a leotard with one side black and one side white. I used to make that mistake until I saw the video!

Hello All. I have a copy of Earl's Court 1977 and Freddie's not wearing the B/W outfit. Instead, it's an orange/white/green checkered leotard of the same diamond pattern. I am not sure when the Black and White one was worn...but i'm sure it's from the same era.

1977 is a definite. Chicago or New york city maybe?

Definitely Chicago!

And Houston'77...( we can see a little part of it in the rare live video.)
He was wearing B/W checkered leotard around the era of NOTW tour.
