By "2 already relesed concerts" I assume you mean Budapest and Rainbow?

I'm as mad as HELL, and I'm not going to take this anymore!

I personally think that Freddie had to not only be vocally but also charismatically at his peak during the filming of the next relese. I think that we need a show that is the Live Aid of the 70s, Freddie had so much charisma during Live Aid, if one of the 70s concerts was judged to be like this, then it would easily be a bestseller.[/QUOTE]

- Visual quality is no issue with the official tapes, and even the bootleg video looks good. Plus, the lighting is far superior to Wembley.

- Hammersmith '79 is noted as being one of Freddie's best vocal performances ever, and is certainly a gig with the whole band in prime shape

- The audience was fine during the show.

well then TQ, I will have to drag my bootleg folder out and see if I have it, cause that certianly sounds highly watchable.
I would like to see some NotW-material get released, I'm dying to hear a live version of It's Late...

But Hammersmith Odeon '75 is genious. Best version of Ogre Battle there, as far as I'm concerned. But the show is kinda short...

Nah, the quasi-operatic part of "March Of The Black Queen" was completely out of tune, and Freddie had too much coke before the gig.

I mean, Queen can't go round publishing a DVD that'd get an X-rating, and I can't see much else happening considering the fact that he fucked a roadie on-stage during "Get Down, Make Love".

The looks of jealousy in Roger's eyes were priceless, though.[/QUOTE]

Is there any footage of that availble?
ummm yeah- Rainbow '74

Is Hammersmith '79 available as a torrent? For some reason I've never actually seen that one yet.

Audio / video wise the obvious choice is budapest and the fortcoming motreal

after that it will be interesting to see what they choose to put out.

as far as I know, they will have no more concert shot on film, so it could be anything

my guess is that Hammersmith 75 / Rainbow 74 will he released as one, seeing as they are both pretty short gigs

and I think Hammersmith 79 will be released alone, together with highlights from the 79 tour (paris, japan..)

and of course; in between this, I'm sure Queen & Paul will do more concerts and release live dvds...
What I'd like to see:

Rainbow 74, Earls Court 77, and Paris 79.

...if enough footage and audio exists from these shows (maximum 7 nights between the 3 venues), of course. But for commercial reasons, I doubt we'll see Rainbow, since there aren't too many hits on there.

In no particular order:
1.) Rainbow Theater '74
2.) Earl's Court '77 (or Houston '77)
3.) Hammersmith '79

I would like the Hyde Park gig, too ('76), but from what I've seen or heard, the quality of the recording isn't good (maybe it's because fans did it?).
I always had a thing for the Rainbow '74 concert =)

Yes!! There are so many songs from those series of concerts that have never seen the light of day in a proper video release. Fred's voice may have been a bit shot but those concerts were excellent.

I would say Hammy 79, but the setlist is very tired. We've had similar setlists on the On Fire release and on the We Will Rock You release (and on the upcoming re-release).

I would also throw Houston 77 in there as well just for a chance to see more footage from the tour as bonus material.
Something from 1980 or 1984 but I don't think there is much pro shot from those years...

But in 1979 Freddie looked cool since he didn't have the ugly mustache yet :) Give me non-mustache DVDs already!
