I saw them at the student union at Vanderbilt University in Nashville in 1979. The hall held about 2000 people. It was the best live show I ever saw, and I've seen hundreds.
i only dream of watching them live in concert with me being on 17.i wish i was their for the wembley in 86,the newcastle show after that and Live Aid.
Queen Live was an unbelieveable experence! Their Houston show was my birthday present that year and my Uncle even got us backstage passes somehow. Freddy was a sweet and funny person, so warm. The world lost a great talent when we lost him.
Because film cameras run at 24 frames per second and the PAL TV standard in Europe is 25 frames per second. They could have fudged (interpolated) an additional frame every 24 frames, but the result would look choppy or blurry.
Simply speeding up gives smooth motion, the same thing usually happens to PAL DVD releases of cinema movies, they are sped up compared to American NTSC or normal film version - you can see that if you listen to a soundtrack song in a movie and compare it to a CD or MP3.
class stuff!!!! freddie at the top of his game (as always!!!)

The best performance show by Queen is by my opinion done in Budapest. Not Live Aid or Wembley. This is pureness at his best.

@TheDddkkk I think you'd have to go a long way to find a better performance than they put in at Rock in Rio...

Spike Edney, he mainly played keyboard but joined in on guitar mid-song to thicken the guitar sound on this track.
