if there was a miracle tour those who would have been lucky enough to witness the greta event would have been amazed i feel at this point in queen history they were at their songwriting prime and they were all so...well....perfect together thanks

The miracle
Somebody to love
Under pressure
Love of my life
'39
In the lap of the gods...revisited
Guitar solo
Chinese torture
Was it all worth it
We will rock you

Good set KJ but you forgot the big hits
Bohemian Rhapsody
Radio Ga Ga
Crazy Little Thing Called Love
Another One Bites The Dust
I Want To Break Free
I'm sure there wouldn't have been a show that all of these songs weren't played. Other than that your set was pretty good. I think on different nights they should rotate and play a song that was never or rarely played live. Would've been an awesome tour.

Thank you Bohemianrhap84. And yes, you are right. The big hits included, it could be like this:

Maybe they would skip IWTBF and AOBTD. IMO it does not fit in the setlist.

If there would have been a tour it would have been A Miracle Tour because those songs wouldn't have been written...Freddie wouldn't have written a song called The Miracle if he didn't have Aids...
If there was, I would want to have seen:
Hang On In There
I Want It All
Breakthru
Was It All Worth It
Chinese Water Torture(in a Brian BR solo is fine)
I would like to have seen some other notable ideas like:
I always wanted to see a piano based live version of Love of My Life.
I would like to have seen Queen bring back Prophet Song, Liar and Doing Alright.
Most of all I would have like to have seen Queen one day retire the repetitive We Will Rock You/We Are The Champs ending they always did in their late tours.

Adapted from my "Let's Make Up Queen Concerts" topic, I present the Toronto date from the Miracle tour.
I'll lead off with the first Canadian stop on the "Miracle on Earth" tour. Freddie, Brian, Roger and John were all excited about coming back to North America, especially with the sales of The Miracle north of the 49th.
So, without further ado, the set list from "Miracle in Toronto", live from the SkyDome, July 15, 1989.
1. I Want It All
2. Tie Your Mother Down
3. Long Away
4. Breakthru
5. One Vision
6. A Kind Of Magic
7. Another One Bites The Dust
8. The Invisible Man
9. I Go Crazy
10. I Want To Break Free
11. Keep Yourself Alive
12. Guitar Solo
13. Now I'm Here
*Intermission, band sort of lazes around, chats amongst themselves*
14. Love Of My Live
15. The Miracle
16. Fat Bottomed Girls
17. Action This Day
18. Seven Seas Of Rhye
19. Hammer to Fall
20. Bohemian Rhapsody
21. Scandal
22. Crazy Little Thing Called Love
23. Radio Ga Ga
24. We Will Rock You
25. Kashoggi's Ship
26. We Are The Champions
27. God Save The Queen/O Canada
The intensity of the crowd was high with the SkyDome wide open, and brilliant lights shining all over the place. The "Miracle Face" was displayed on a large video scren behind the stage, and out of nowhere, it spoke "I Want It All, I Want It All, I Want It All, and I Want It NOW!" Cue the massive pyrotechnics, Queen has arrived! The band pulled out all the stops for their opening number, Freddie being as lively as ever. Frederator was in a Toronto Blue Jays tee and blue jeans, Brian was wearing his Magic Tour get-up, John was in leather jacket and shades, and Rog seemed to be wearing...well, not much. The band swung right into another high-paced number, Tie Your Mother Down, to get the place jumping. They quickly took it down a notch afterwards. Brian said something about "reaching to our bag of tricks and making some miracles tonight." And just like that, Long Away starts, completely surprising the better part of the audience! Freddie and Brian sang vocals back-and-forth, until John decided to do his own thing, and shunt the tune into Breakthru, which was the popular single at the time. One Vision and A Kind of Magic were next, with Freddie trotting out in his old Magic Tour jacket, "just for old time's sake." Another One Bites the Dust followed, with the band warning that "things are gonna get a little steamy in here." AOBtD led into the Invisible Man, with John actually singing his part, getting a good rise out of the crowd. Afterwards, another "miracle" from the band: they play I Go Crazy! No one really even knew that this song would be played live! EVER! But it received a decent response from the crowd. IWTBF followed it, which led into Keep Yourself Alive (another nifty one from the archives), after which Brian decided to do his guitar solo. It seemed the band just threw together their setlist at the last moment, which is why there wasn't any Impromptu beforehand. Now I'm Here closed out the 1st half of the concert, leaving the 55,000 or so in attendance nicely buzzed.
Freddie: Now, if you'll excuse us, we need to take a bit of a break. We are, after all, four aging queens. We're old. We need rest. *trots off*
(and btw, Rog was wearing Canada-flag boxers...)
The intermission was a bit of a weird one. The band came back after a while with a change of clothes, but without instruments. They just sorta lay around on stage, chatting about how the concert's going, and plotting out their second half, cracking the occasional joke, stuff like that. (I honestly hope this part makes the DVD...)
Eventually, Brian finds his guitar, and Love of my Life is played. Following that, an acoustic version of The Miracle was sung by Freddie and Brian, which was a bit of an accomplishment considering the source material. Afterwards, the band
Suigi wrote:
Maybe we should try and patch together a setlist of the Miracle tunes and other live releases, add in some crowd noise and reverb, and release a "live" album onto the QZ tracker.
Or, we could listen to other bands instead of fantasizing about something that never happened.
Sorry, but that post kind of crossed the line of Queen fan to Queen-over-obsessed... :)
