tech_guy Posted March 6, 2011 Posted March 6, 2011 FM & Queen weeing on all the other acts at Live Aid 1985: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lDckgX3oU_w http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MfYcKNqQoJo http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IGUdjHUVd18 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E5RFOii3efs http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vdcDswc97Bo
synaesthesia Posted March 7, 2011 Posted March 7, 2011 Huge Queen fan, and those were truly terrific performances. Never a greater showman in music. And it's real music too, none of them had to wear more rubber than a Durex advertising mascot or F and blind in their music to be successful. I still follow what's left of Queen closely to this day, definitely much better than anything GaGa related. Just a shame about where she got her name from
3s-gtech Posted March 7, 2011 Posted March 7, 2011 We recently bought the Live Aid DVD just for these, Queen is far more featured on the discs than anyone else, with good reason!
GrumbleDook Posted March 7, 2011 Posted March 7, 2011 Planning to see We Will Rock You again on the weekend of 25th March ...
synaesthesia Posted March 7, 2011 Posted March 7, 2011 Still yet to see that, keep meaning to go with the wife (also a fan) I'd ask if it's any good but considering how long it's been running it can't be bad!
GrumbleDook Posted March 7, 2011 Posted March 7, 2011 I would definitely recommend it. John and I keep trying to sort out going to watch it some time during BETT week, but apparently going out on the beer is a preferred option by some. They don't know what they are missing!
Jawloms Posted March 7, 2011 Posted March 7, 2011 My Dad still has their Wembley '86 concert on VHS which he recorded off Channel 4's 'The Tube'. He even paused it at all the ad breaks! Those were the days..........
HarryMonkey Posted March 7, 2011 Posted March 7, 2011 That must have been their "Kind Of Magic" tour ... I saw them at Knebworth later that year along with 120,000 others ... A fantastic day, but little did we realise it was to be the last one.
GrumbleDook Posted March 7, 2011 Posted March 7, 2011 Awww!!! I would have gone with you too!! Sounds like a plan for next year. John, get organising
sister_annex Posted March 7, 2011 Posted March 7, 2011 Our Sixth Form are putting on a performance of We Will Rock You... it's actually pretty damn good (although I am biased) they've got a live band in to do al the music who are fantastic also It's good to see that the newer generation have been bought up to appreciate true quality in music not like as synaesthesia eluded too...
john Posted March 7, 2011 Posted March 7, 2011 Sounds like a plan for next year. John, get organising Can I have your diary of BETT evening appointments now please Mr GD then we can try and plan it in as you were a very busy chap (and I don't mean for anyone that wasn't there, just drinking Beer in bars!
