Did they know that this was their last show and if so, was it announced? Because I imagine there would be a lot more chaos if people knew, especially at the very end. I'd also think if Queen knew, they'd do something crazy special. That wasn't the case :(
@Typhoon792 Your thoughts are my thoughts. I never figured out why they didn´t bother recording their last show, you know, making all that fuss for Knebworth, like they did for Wembley, after all, this was their last show and why couldn´t they give something special?? It makes very sad and I think it´s a real shame that the last Queen´s show has not been properly recorded and can not be edited due to lack of footage...
There's much better versions of Champions on this tour: Mannheim, Brussels, and Stockholm (he even aces the C5) are leaps and bounds above this version.
@strandennn Hi, Queen is EVERYTHING! Queen is Queen, no need for labeling.
Even Metallica covers Queen. Queen has recorded a large number of songs in different genera / styles. (Disco, jazz, pop, rock, hard rock, rockabilly etc…)
They are might greater than any other band in the world.
bollocks presley was a talentless singer Freddie filled both bills Queen&King of rock remember that . He topped the bill and over killed!! KILLERQUEEN .
FREDDIE4EVER ALL THE CREW AT JBsWASTELAND LUVV U XXX
They decided to use to two concerts at wembley for future video release, filmed with 15 different cameras its one hell of a show. The knebworth was a last minute decission by promoter Harvey Goldsmith, they wanted a third show at Wembley but it was already booked...
But then again Wembley had 72000 seats for that show, there were 120.000 at Knebworth that day.
Freddie mercury you are not death, you are still in our heart, you have left your memories. in every one heart..... we wish your soul rest in peace.... Rest in peace....
It was the last show with Freddie Mercury. I´ve got the whole show on tape! Freddie only appeared live after this with Montserat Caballe in 1988 and with Cliff Richard at the Time Musical in London. Greets from Berlin!
this isn't from knebworth, this is from live magic, 'thank you beautifull people, you've been a tremendous, and have been a really special audience...'
im afraid to say that knebworth 1986 WAS the last gig that queen did with freddie, but im proud to say it was the 1st gig i ever went to!,so it was probably the greatest introduction to live music i could have had.unforgetable.
@x0LiveLaughLove0x Yeah, they never toured again after 1986. Freddie appeared live one more time in 1988 on stage with Monserrat Caballe in Barcelona. They sang songs from their album - Barcelona. The band was continually asked in interviews in the late 80s if they were going to tour again. Their answers were evasive, usually with Freddie speaking up to say he didn't want to. At that time nobody knew the real reason - that he was dying and physically incapable of performing live.
That is because the video is an audience recording of the big screen above the stage. There are slightly better recordings out there somewhere but you would have to pay quite a lot of money or download it from bittoret (which i would not reccomend)
en el DVD de bonus del concierto de wembley dice que que podrían haber llenado unas 5 noches el estadio de wembley pero después de la segunda noche(la del vídeo oficial) el estadio no se podía seguir ocupando por eso eligieron knebworth ya que era un parque bastante conocido y ahí podría entrar toda la gente
Seen them Live 1986 Slane Castle Ireland. 80,000 fans. Never realised I was one of the last to see them Live. Even more honored than I originally thought. effing amazing concert and not just because it was my first.
Thank you for posting this clip. I LOVE Queen. They are the BEST band EVER. Freddie Mercurys voice is FANTASTIC!! Freddie is THE King!!!!! I Love you Freddie!!!! RIP

Got problems holding back my tears when I see this recording from that gig.
As a broke 17 years old kid from Norway, it was unbelievable. I bought two beers and an apple for my last money at that show..
I met an Italian guy there, wonder if he reads this post.
Quite close to the stage with a bunch of HA guys.
Remember: Status Quo, Big Country and one more band were also on the bill….. But… who cares?
Still, Status was great..
