I think I need need this DVD once it's available. I'm not a huge Queen/Freddie fan but I'd like to have this mainly for Metallica, Iommi, etc. and all the great musicians. Discuss.

alot missing

[Vic2012]

I don't know, looks like a pretty good set list. If it's reasonably priced I'll get it. If it's priced ridiculously high I'll pass. Lots of great singers and musicians all over it (imo).

[Deano]

I was there

Not a lot missing really - bits of Extreme & Leppard...Spinal Tap...Inuuendo w/Plant & Bowie's The Lords Prayer...can't think of anything else

[Scott Bails]

I'm probably going to have to pick this up, too. I remember really enjoying it when it aired on TV.

[Jerjo]

I wouldn't touch it without Innuendo

[Rufus]

I wouldn't touch it without Innuendo

Exactly my feelings too ! Innuendo was the highlight of the show so it beggers belief why it has been ommited !

[BravadoNJ]

yeah Innuendo was incredible, especially Plant singing Kashmir in the middle.

i have the 10th Anniversary edition and it's the same DVD. except for the opening acts.

[SteveSly]

I might get this. I remember watching the whole thing live on TV with a buddy of mine. After it was over I remember having a discussion that the only two vocalists who were really able to nail Freddie’s parts were Gary Cherone (Extreme) and George Michael. I agree with the other posters though, the “Innuendo” was also great, and I can’t imagine why they would leave it out.

I've been uniformly disappointed when other musicians, no matter how talented, play original music by another band. I'd be more likely to search out a Queen DVD at the peak of their career. To those who enjoy it -- I appreciate they're truly great musicians playing on the DVD.

Find Rainbow Theatre '74.

Amazing.

Re - Innuendo

this has always been left off the various releases at Plant's request...he was unhappy with it due to him forgetting the words

[No Pride]

I remember seeing some of that on TV. George Michaels sounded great; too bad they didn't get him instead of Paul Rodgers (who's a great singer, but totally wrong for Queen)! The worst was Liza Minnelli singing "We Are the Champions." Ugh; if she only had half of her mother's talent.

Find Rainbow Theatre '74.

This is a pretty great Queen concert too; from '75. They were really at the top of their game!

actually, now that i think of it, he didn't forget the lyrics. it was a technical problem- the mic was not turned on and you didn't hear him until the second verse.

Actually, I read in a interview once that Plant didn't want Innuendo on the concert film, because he did forget some of the lyrics. Didn't he also forget some of the lyrics to Kashmir?

[Jerjo]

definite mike drop at the beginning

[BravadoNJ]

if any singer can get away with messing up the lyrics, it's Robert Plant.

So was I.
