Does the Marquee from 1972 exist??? That would be cool

i have part of it, but its really really really really bad, the ibex show is much better,

wow that bad eh??? Any American shows from '78???

I've got some, I'll see what I'm going to upload next... I suppose it'll be something from America '78 so stick around :P

REV: how about 26.12.1979 Hammersmith - could it be ??

What is the date of this show and more pertinently, is the show where Freddie upset the Brazilians with his plastic breasts? I understand that a video of that particular moment exists somewhere.

Thanks for sharing everything you've shared recently.

i only just learned it is the 19th not the 12th gig, where Freddie did upset the fans and yes IWTBF is missing from the tracks set listfor a unknown reason.

OK thanks taylorgaga.

Belated thanx Rev

I've been lookin' forward to hearing this for a long time. I have the Rock In Rio video but as you all know it's just one hour. Thank you very much.

Thanks for this great post !!....a real classic...and by the way, I was there in that wet night of 18th to 19th of january 1985.
The crowd was huge !!....about 200 thousand people,waiting in the mud,like Woodstock.....
The concert was memorable,played with a high exchange of energy, as there had been several parties, organized by the Queen Flash Club from Rio, during the hole week.....including one at the Copacabana beach with Brian and some crew members....

Real classic moments to remember for all my life !!

from what iv been told-they didnt play it on the first night, and if you listen carefully to that track, at the end you will hear it fade in then it will cut! so it was started but it has been cut from the audio we have here!

You know, i think they have played this one on both nights, because on the video, Freddie is not wearing the fake boobs.... One concert he wore it, and one he didn't..

correct me if i'm wrong, but doesnt go under being an "offical release"? I think its unfair that Live in Budapest '86 was removed for being a "offical release" and this hasnt, and both are on VHS and both versions of the videos are cut

Yeah, good question... but i think it's because Budapest was a "one-night-only" gig, and RIR was a compilation of both nights, and the one that's been shared is the 2nd one...

I have another question: Is it only me, or were some of the songs played slower than on the rest of the tour?

I was just listening to "STL" and noticed that the sound quality gets better on the first chorus "somebody, somebody... can anybody find me....." and then it goes back to the lower sound quality... Does anybody know why? Was there a mix from two different sources, and if so, why not put the whole concert on the better quality?
