Man I wish I was there, rather than watching it on the internet

[@marionott1145]

What a great band and every member so special in their own way. One of a kind. Never again. Thank Godesse all this great music was recorded and saved for us. Thank you as long as man live.

[@deathchronicles6960]

10:34 john daecon omg he fucking rape that bass line.. fucking best bassist of all time ever..

[@deondevilliers9272]

Freddie deserves the crown that he wears at the end, my opinion the best rock performer ever although he was an excellent performer with whatever he did. Few comes close but he was the best. I was very sad the day he died but he left us with an amazing gift of music. You are a legend., thank you for what you gave us. R.I.P.

[@joedoe7506]

Freddie was one of a kind...the legend, always and forever

[@sionlewis827]

I lived in Wembley at the time and you could see the Stadium from our back garden and hear the concerts as well, not to clearly but you could tell what song was being played, it was great. I remember hearing Queen's concert and being gutted because my parents wouldn't let me go because I was a bit young. Someone invent a time machine please!

[@baijusbabu900]

time punk floyd

[@goesjem]

Sean, I am from Dollis Hill and me and my dad went to both gigs. I was 11 at the time. We walked home after the Saturday. We got totally soaked, but it was so worth it! We used to hear all the concerts from our house. Live Aid is the first I remember, but Queen, who are my favourite band along with Zep, The Who, Purple and all those guys, they were the first and best gig I attended. So powerful. I was also at Freddie's tribute gig in 1992. We were so lucky to have lived so near....

[@veronicacalero2600]

OH MY GOD!! im just glad I was born 4 years after he died haha I envy you

[@LauraGarcia-jc2lz]

I was at Freddie's Tribute concert, too. All the way from Buenos Aires, Argentina, for that very special and unforgettable occasion.

Harry Warburg You see, being older must have some advantage!

[@peachesjackofski8363]

How nice is Brian May. Such a lovely man.

[@SuzyQ334]

Agreed. He comes across as a lovely bloke (as well as a mega-talented guitarist). Our Brian is probably the Roger Federer of rock! xx

[@filipe240300]

Well I don't know about that I think in an interview with is wife he actually said he was really different from the calm person he seems to be. I guess he as well is a great pretender

[@taniagariepy]

Yes

[@JJ-bs5bo]

John Deacon rocks in those shorts he wears on stage!

[@metacosmos]

queen has been probably the most democratic band in the world, four members contributing all of them with songs, playing and singing, with no changes of members in all their story. A remarkable feat, probably due to the touch of class of the Doctor and the graduate in biology.

[@hannyhawkins7804]

metacosmos Dr Deacon is a PhD, too, in electronics. He was as vital as any of the other three.

[@metacosmos]

@@hannyhawkins7804 Good, i didn't know, very good for Doctor Deacon, those three May, Deacon and Taylor were learned people, and this was why they got to keep the band united so many years without changes and with respect for each other, not like Deep Purple which was the absolute opposite sample.

[@hey_thankstommy5269]

[@jenbickies7876]

I think if Freddie did a concert now he would be disappointed by the amount of fans watching him on stage through the camera screens of their mobile phones. All he would see is a crowd of smartphones for faces. It's such a shame. I understand record a little moment or two to enjoy later, but people literally record the whole show and are ultimately missing out on the overall experience of being there.

[@paullaup5475]

"Darlings put your bloody phones away"

[@jeanettebadham6494]

Neqver no mobiles could take the place of being in there with him.because you see him sweating his guts out ..the magic was breathing the same air as him .

[@linaskranauskas]

Nonsense. Freddie always embraced new technology. Knowing how many concerts Queen did and how many of them are properly recorded, those phone videos would be a blessing now. I would give anything for a poor video of Freddie's last performance. And there are none.

[@fredmentor]

I think you're right. It used to exist and lived moments, today you archive them .. It is sick, awareness of being confirmed by social media. Unfortunately - we have different times, but the legends - remain the same and we have the opportunity to notice the differences. Regards! Mark MS/fm_04/08/2021

Weird how so many incredible bands were around at that time. And within bands like this were so many legendary key people. It is like someone put together a supergroup, only nobody did, they just found themselves together anyway.

[@adventuressurvivalinthailand]

Roger Taylor was brilliant live with his back up vocals and his part in Under Pressure

[@ruralrob228]

Was luck enough to go to this concert on the saturday, I was 17 at the time and I've been to many more since but this was by far the best.

[@mrcmalubay58]

robert smith your very lucky sir. Here I'am wishing I was born more earlier I was born in 1991 and here I'am wanting to go their concert.

[@christiinejoyce]

The bond and respect these guys have for each other is just incredible. I have watched their interviews and they truly are really involved with how the band goes. Despite Deaky's no longer in the limelight I think he is still their finance manager or something. I think John is still very much involved, just dont wanna be around cameras.

[@chonarilloraza4501]

The four are equally great.Each playing each part so well. Without one of them they will not be the same. Queen the greatest

As if a drum solo would bore people... Roger you're awesome!

[@onlykismet]

I was born in 1984, I'm from Mexico, and I was introduced to Queen since I was very little thanks to my dad, Freddie had already passed, I remember my dad saying he passed from AIDS (this is also the first memory I have of this disease). Years later when I was probably in my early 20's I bought the DVD of this concert at Wembley as a present to my dad for Father's Day...little did I know watching that with my dad would totally make me fall in love with this band, the show was just so powerful and mesmerizing, and oh did I have a crush on John ♡ that bass is always so good! Anyway, it just makes me sad that Freddie didn't have a longer life :(

[@timsplanet2]

Humble????

[@CB-xr1eg]

@@timsplanet2 Yes humble, listen to Brian on this video, he's not saying what a brilliant guitar player he is, but he could do, because he is. Same with Roger, no boasting just telling it straight like it is. People always assume Freddie had an ego but it was just his stage persona, off stage he spoke quietly and he was almost shy. John Deacon, a ore humble person you will never meet.

[@cwir88]

I was born in 1988 and obviously I could have never been on that show, but having seen lots of gigs from 80s and 90s on dvds AND attending dozens of large live shows nowadays, I can tell you it's certainly the best live concert ever played and registered by human beings.

A cassette of this performance (called "Queen Live at Wembley Stadium" or something) was released in 1986. I bought it and then listened to it on my first Walkman over and over and over again until I thought I'd actually been there. That tape must have worn out or I got interested in Guns and Roses and lost it - or it's in some box in my parents' attic. But it was really great and this documentary makes me rather sad that I let it go. Fickle creatures, teenagers. Fickle and unreliable. Speaking for myself as someone who was one once, of course.
