Zitat:

13.07.1985

London

(Wembley Stadium)

England


Most of top artists of that time were present at this mega-famous festival and Queen of course had to be there.
  • Each artist got from ten to twenty minutes for their show;
  • no playback or soundcheck were allowed.
  • Queen hesitated because playing without a soundcheck is always a risk. But then they accepted the rules and their 20 minutes of fame came on at 18:44 GMT.

Queen were on top form and not only according to Bob Geldof and Elton John, they stole the show.
  • They played only the intro to Bohemian Rhapsody (the opera part couldn't be played from the tape as playback was forbidden & there wasn't enough time anyway).
  • Instead of the opera part, Radio Ga Ga followed.
  • We Will Rock You was reduced to the first verse (and the final guitar solo) only.
  • Is This The World We Created was performed by Freddie and Brian only later in the evening.
