CHICAGO!!!!!!!

The show was Awesome. Good Crowd. Pretty Full. The band was hot.
I can't wait for St. Paul!!!
The highlights for me were: Dragon, Pressure, Ga Ga and All Right Now. The crowd really got into Ga Ga and All Right. Brian seemed to really appreciate the reception! As did Roger and Paul. All seemed very happy and encouraged, proud, confident. No mistakes(big ones). Brian used a back up (red special) guitar a couple of times. My friend who went, not a Queen fan, had a great time. He was REALLY impressed.
GREAT SHOW!!!!

Highlights for me, Let There be Drums, I'm in Love with my Car, the Guitar Solo, All Right Now, We Will Rock You, and Under Pressure.

Behind the stage was of course empty, but the upper deck was over half full. I would gueses it was over 85 % full.

I would say the crowd was very good. There was at leasat one time that Paul stepped away from th mike to let the crowd sing. The crowd was especially loud during the second half of the concert.

Overall a very enjoyable evening that exceeded my cynical expectations.

Great reviews guys!!!

WOW! Great show!

Under Pressure, Dragon Attack and Tie Your Mother Down were the highlights for me! The crowd sang along well, and did a pretty decent job at Love of My Life.

Chicago Rocks!

Here are some pictures I took..

Excellent Pics - I enjoyed the way you've captured the ambiance of various effects from the light show. Cool !

Gosh darn, that was such a pleasant surprise. I was so moved and so exhausted by the end of the show. I am amazed at these guys, yeah Roger Taylor shows a bit of age but his voice is and drumming are a force that time has not affected. This was a show so fresh I felt like a kid again. They had better work on an album because there is certainly something there and they need to tap into it.

QUEEN-CO.!!!!!!! sounds better than
BAD-QUEEN

I got a text from Erin and Pieter this morning. They didn't have any internet access in their hotel in Chicago. They said the show was awesome and the crowd rocked. They are on their way to Detroit now.

I'm glad it was a success. Chicago is a great town, great people.

YESS!!! Chicago Rocked!! Loud- standing most of the time- singing along!!! Outside of Pittsburgh the best show so far!! Just arrived at Detroit hotel..we have a 45 mile drive to the palace and then tomorrow we fly off to St. Paul.

I am elated at this tour!!!

Gr8 King Rat, your array of photos is outstanding. Thanks for posting them.

IT ROCKED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I loved it. I have been a Queen fan for along time and I finally got a chance to see them. It's not the same without Freddie, but Paul Rogers did an awsome job! I spent the whole night on my feet singing and dancing.

Check BrianMay.com
He said some great things about your show.

I drove from St.louis im glad i did it was a awsome show!i loved under pressure im a little disspointed at the turnout in Chicago was there advertisement for the show?and other venues in the states when they tour europe and the world it seems they get more fan support.i thought paul did a great job!anyway im glad they came to the US!!!!!QUEEN FAN FOREVER!!!!!

I drove from St Lousi also. Man... I haven't been in a concert for years, and this was the first (sadly, maybe last) time I had ever seen Queen. How do I rate something that I always wanted to see, yet never thought I would? This was an incredible experience in my life. Queen (especially brian may) been such a major influence in my life. When they were taking their bows during God Save the Queen... all I could think of was the word "thanks." I have been through the crapper as of late... but this made me forget about all of my problems, everything... and for a few hours... I enjoyed life again.
Thanks Queen. Thanks to the fans to were on their feet shouting... Keep Rocking!!!

I'm still too stunned to write my review... I also have some kick ass pictures that I'll post when I get back from St Paul -
