A friend of my uncle attended that concert when he was 19 years old. So it's from him who I got this info.
He said it was rather crowded there but he remembers that someone in the audience was filming parts of the concert with a Super 8 camera. (since it cost about 50 Dutch gulden to process 5 minutes back then, I guess only a few minutes have been filmed.) He also said Queen performed quite well that day although it was the first time he ever saw them as a band.
So there's definitely footage of that day but if it survived in any way is of course uncertain.

why don´t you make a request in the local newspaper?
Well mostly due to the fact that making an add in the paper costs too much for my wallet right now and besides if the footage has survived it's probably in the hands of a private collector.

Well, the guy that is SUPPOSED to be the owner of this piece of history (I say suppose, cause I am not convinced of the accuracy of the info that came to me) should be a German guy. Not realy a fan, but a guy that worked for a tv/film-company. The tapes are supposed to be locked away somewhere in an enourmous mess of an archive and the guy doesn't want to take the time to search everything out. (Also because he now lives in another country and is just too far away to hop by...)

It's funny you should mention that. I've been wondering about that as well. Somehow when I look at those clips I get the feeling that they were profesionally recored because of the image quality and camera standpoint.
Yet again an example that there's a lot more out there then we know. :-)

Jeroen, you are dead right. You have spoken to the same guy as me.

No the rarest is Syracuse 1977. My friends mom went there and recorded some of the concert. Audio only. It's okay quality, but don't ask to post it. That woman wouldn't let that recording leave her presence for a half a second...I was surprised she let me listen to it. :P
-Onondaga War Memorial 1977, she went to the 1980 concert but didn't record it.

the rarest queen concert would be - without doubt
a Queen + Paul Rodgers concert that BRYAN'S PERMED POODLE didn't drone on about like a fucking moaning cretin...now that would be a really fucking rare concert...almost as rare as Rocking Horse Shit!!!

@ Jay:
Yes it's indeed rare footage I only count 2 or 3 camera's one of them is under the stage and recorded upwards this is quite unusual, so I think some tv station did this!!!
@ On my way up
Yes the Brussels nigh was recorded ! You can even see it in the Hammer to fall video. There's is footage shown of radio Gaga clapping !!!

The only part that was filmed from the Brussels CONCERT are some audience shots! The rest is from the soundcheck/videoshoot that afternoon.

It's really odd to only film the audience isn't it?In his book greg says:this show is filmed for the Hammer to fall video and he describes the handclapping during gaga like if he can watch it,so maybe queen have full footage!!this is possible isn't it?would be really great because it was a great show!!!!and in my homecountry:-)

Well, in reality it id not so odd to only film audiance for a promotional video.
And I'm sorry to say that Greg's book got lots of errors. This is one of them: the Hammer To Fall video was filmed during SOUNDCHECK and not during the show.
And him describing the audience: it can be seen in the HTF video, het could have been there, or it is just a figure of speach. It's quite well known that the audiance started clapping along right at the first time they played GaGa...
