[QUOTE][QUOTENAME]doeeyes wrote: [/QUOTENAME]saltnvineger, thankyou, first I was always into different music when I was about 15, I loved the doors janis joplin jimi hendrix, then came this song, borap, I thought it was so unique, and the guitar sound they sounded like no other, so they
facinated me from the start, they were better received in the uk, united states I hate to say were not into different sounds or people, and freddie of course was the showman. but there were lots of fans, but not like the uk. in 1982 he changed his look of course, myself I liked it
he was a beautifull man, very lithe and very sexy
the us did not take to it, but they had their heads up their ass, as far as I was concerned.
I had good seats and enjoyed the shows so much, Freddie was so great and funny, he was more into it by 1982. later on the I want to break free video turned a lot of people off, but I thought all of it was in good fun, a lot of people especially in the south were i live, they all love country music, but there are still a lot of Queen fans here, I cherish all those memories especially 1977 when they were getting thier feet wet, and becoming the great band they are,
they always spoke to the audiance, and Freddie would look at you when he sang, good eye contact
I enjoyed sharing my memories with you, have a great day. trish...lol[/QUOTE]
Thanks a lot for answering my questions. I've only met one person who has actually attended a Queen (-PR) concert so I really like to hear every little detail. I enjoyed reading your memories of those special occasions and really envy you being able to see the "very lithe and very sexy" Freddie- I'd have probably tried to storm the stage and grab him if I'd have been there! If you every remember anything else you want to share, I'd be glad to read it. Bye for now x

Well, A Kind Of Magic (A tribute to Freddie MErcury) is, I think, The worst crap ever :s..
And speaking of Freddie saying weird things on stage, I actually heard him say that 'Brian´s got a big cock' on stage :p.. I swear it was him :D

Wow, doeeyes, that sounds like a great collection of memorabilia-don't throw it away ever! Yeah $6.50 sounds like a great price for such a wonderful show but I'd pay 10+ times that to go back in time and see it for real LOL!
On a non-Queen related note...you got a LedZep signed drumstick? wow, did you get backstage and actually meet them? Were you lucky enough to meet the Queen boys too or did you know anyone that did?
again, sorry to you all for the thread hijack...back again to Freddie's stage persona! x

It's available to hear on one of those sites with concert mistakes and funny moments, it's been put up here a few times but sorry, I don't know the link right now and and the search feature just doesn't seem to work for me on this board anymore :( I must admit I wasn't sure whether he said c%$k or 'conk' (as in nose)...that might be more appropriate!

saltnvineger, Hi, actually when I got the drumstick from led zep I did get to meet them as they each signed, they were great and fun guys,
soooo young. When i had seen Queen in 1982 a Friend of mine his brother was in collage and talked mike into going to a Queen concert with him he thought no way, but non the less he went and loved every minute of the concert, Freddie
just pulled you in with his wit and charisma.
mike now is a physical thereapist with his own buissness. I had to claw my way up and had very good closeness to the stage, but i am short and kept getting knocked out of the way, or pushed.
he would say hello darlings and wink. I keep all my stuff Elvis and I like Dwight Yoakum, C&W singer I seen him twice..lol....thanks i love sharing.
