This was the biggest tour of '86 and the one that grossed the most that year too. It set records for attendance and everything. The two concerts at Wembley are probably one or two of the best concerts ever, but what about the tour?? What do u guys think?
Darling, Im not going to be a rockstar, Im going to be a LEGEND!!
Rolling Stones Exile On Main St'72 was the greatest tour ever ;)
Magic tour?
WORD!
Yup
Nah...

70% of the shows were set up in small-medium venues (10.000 to 30.000) and only the outdoor gigs were bigger but... not soooo bigger...

The Stones to Metallica, KISS... i dont know... U2´s ZOO tv, POP´s Tour and their current tour, Oasis, MC Cartney, Ac Dc...

And loooots of more artists have made longer tours... with larger audiences... and better results.

I think The Magic tour was only big for a particular moment of 1986 but not of all history...

My opinion is that the bigger and important Queen tour was the Southamerican tour...

Bye
Queen rocks!
Well, the Magic Tour was quite groundbreaking and big at THAT time. I don`t think anyone can argue about that. It could have been a hell lot bigger crowd wise ofcourse. The bigger the better ;)
and more international.
The Rush 30th anniversary tour was the best music tour of all time.
Well here's my counter-offer... do I have to kill you? What if I were just to kick the ever loving shit out of you?

You spelled Rolling Stones, and Exile On Main St Tour wrong man ;)
There were many bigger and better tours by many artists, including Queen themselves. IMO.
John hated Hot Space. Frederick's favourite singer was not Paul Rodgers. Roger didn't compose 'Innuendo.' 'Bohemian Rhapsody' hasn't got 180 vocal overdubs.
impact wise and media coverage the magic tour was massive bigger than the sones and anythin the who had to offer......
mjks
thatll be ....the stones

Every Queen tour after Queen II tour is better music wise (except for the Queen + PR tour. The Magic Tour had a somewhat stale Greatest Hits type set list, and there were only four new songs (aside from cover versions).

lmao :D


Seriously though, when it came to setlists and performance. Exile On Main St Tour was awesome. Magic Tour wasn't as great as Crazy or Hot Space. Sorry loves, Queen wasn't as perfect as you may have wanted them to be :/(RUSH is amazing live btw!)
Queen + Paul Rodgers Japan Tour 2005. The best ever!!!
I'm just getting used to my new exposure Come into my enclosure And meet my melancholy blues
