Hello Fellers
in the champions documentary if you notice there's about 5 seconds where they show freddie sitting on the back of the santa and throwing bananas to the crowd
PLZ can you tell me with precision and for sure the date and the place of that concert?
And i know this concert too exists more than 5 seconds on video...

Ofcourse there is more than 5 seconds of video. Do you really think they would waste money by hiring equipment and camera men just to shoot 5 seconds of video?

Was it Santa, or Superman? The latter I think...

Its coming for sure from News Of The World Tour USA part, November-December 1977. If its Santa Claus Freddie is sitting on, then I think we are talking about a gig from the 22th December 1977, the well known because of one particular song played that night, acousting version of "White Xmass"... Maybe Im wrong but Im only guessing.
Anywawy, the time is December 1977, right before Christmas.

Cheers
It's definitely 1979... look how short his hair is.

But he never wore that glitter leotard in 1979 right? Only during the Day At The Races/News of The World tour.
Well, I think it is the NOTW Tour or the US Jazz Tour in 1978. Maybe some people have the book "Queen The Visual Documentary" by Ken Dean. On page 38, there is a photo of a leotard Freddie on the shoulders of Superman and his hair is quite short as the video shows. On page 39, there is another photo with the same Freddie and there is the NOTW robot on the drums of Roger. We could say it is from the NOTW Tour but on the Buffalo 78 (Jazz Tour) video, there is also the robot on the drums. I don't have a scanner so i can't show you the picture. Maybe someone who has this book can scan it and post it here. It is definitly not from 77. Watch the video of Houston and you'll see that his hair is longer.
It's the Jazz/Live Killers lightning rig.

The robot is Darth Vader from Star Wars. Freddie came out singing WWRY on his shoulders during the US Game tour in '80. The Santa pic is from LA 12-22-77, and I'm pretty certain that happened only once. The Superman thing was done for WWRY from April to December '79.

Based on the pictures I've seen, the NOTW logo was Roger's bass drum skin on the US leg of the Jazz tour in '78, and he used the Jazz skin in Europe and Japan '79. But of course there may be exceptions.

This is definitely from '79:

When it comes to Queen concerts in the 70s, very little of it is known, if you look at documentation vs. concerts as a ratio. Most 70s tours have only a few bootlegs, and pictures from a few shows. If we're trying to generalize something for an entire tour, all we can do is make educated guesses. We don't really have this problem with the 80s tours, especially the Works and Magic tours, since they're so well documented.

But we need to be careful. For example, some people think that Freddie only wore the green and red outfit on the ADATR tour because of the Earls Court video, and they think that Freddie wore the black one only on the NOTW tour because of the Houston and Munich videos. But the truth is, it went both ways, and there are fortunately pictures to prove it.
