Wish i could have been 15 years older actually, then i would be able to see them live in my homecountry Norway. Was only 1 year old back in 82 :(
Queen with Freddie is history, but i was able to see them in Newcastle last year. I can honestly say it was (and still is), the best day in my life.

never got to see queen, but I did see queen + paul. It was a decent show I suppose, but I didn't even pay no mind to paul.

15/11/1975 liverpool empire - was only 15 at the time travelling on my own from dublin -
flight got routed to manchester and had to bum a lift. saved like mad to go booked by post
when the tour was announced in the nme/sounds - then they added another date for the previous day.
great show for me 3 or 4 rows to the stage on brians side - rememeber getting scared at
the start of ogre battle thought the place was shaking and being totally in awe at the length of
brians curly lead. watching the christmas show from the hammersmith odean brings it all back
but it couldnt replace actually bring there - still have the photos i took that night
- they were great days - great memories
22/11/1977 rds simmondscourt dublin -the first night of the crazy tour- amazing show -
seen some people on the web note that they played danny boy that night but for some reason i
can only remember brian playing it as part of his solo and us singing our heads off. freddie handing
out a champagne glass to a friend of mine who still has it. anyway it was nearly 30 years ago
and i find it hard to remember what i did last week never mind that long ago. they ended the
show with the outro from a day a the races which took me a while to figure out what it actually was.
the lighting rig was totally amazing - the pizza oven was aptly named - it was scorching and the
intensity of the light when it turned around behind the band to face the audience was
something else made a couple of friends that night ( in the horse show bar opposite the venue)
that i am still in contact with and we are all still crazy after all these years
- eat your heart out paul simon
my sister was at milton keynes does that count? she never lets me forget i missed it.
28 & 29/8/1984 rds simmondscourt dublin (again) fantastic times again in dublin - queen were in a different
league by now. remember freddie putting a womans bra on his head that i thought was thrown from the audience -
or maybe it was from part of his "break free" gear which was a laugh. brians solo was great as it seemed
to incorporate a lot of other sounds from "machines". was very hoarse the second night and did'nt sing as much
got slagged big time next day in work as i could barely talk as my throat was killing me.
5/7/1986 slane castle - co meath (not dublin by the way) the magic tour - travelled down the day before as we had booked into a b&b in slane village
for the weekend had a great night out in the pub with some likeminded queen people and they served the black stuff
way way way too late as we were singing our heads off as usual - have a very vivid memory of one guy standing on
a table full of glasses and singing break free for all he was worth. woke up the next day the worse for wear - the village
was filling up fast and we made our way to the site - was up on the hill a near the castle enjoying it. watching the
helicopters come in and the people like ants wandering around the changing rooms backstage. great show from where i was
the crowd enourmous and singing every song - the only bummer i remember about it was it was way bright and there
was no lightshow as such. and you could see the river boyne behind the stage - a great setting for a gig.
brian may - the point dublin 1993(i think) sometime around oct or nov - good show - good to see brian get
out there and do somehting - love of my life was touching - cozy powell was loud (very loud). hung around
side of stage after show to try and get autographs and ended up getting my photo taken with cozy powell -
a very nice guy - said a few words that i cannot remember but took the time and made sure the few of us that
stayed all got a photo with him. still have it - great memories - again
brian may - royal albert hall sometime in 1998 - not a bad show - but was way up too high in the gods to
clearly see anything but the sound was great and i suppose it was to simply be there
