if your ISP is dynamic IP based (my case), you don't have to wait (disconnect / delete temp files & cookies / reconnect) or just use US Downloader: http://queenzone.com/forums/1179241/usdownloader-mediafire-megaupload-plus-cryptload-for-megaupload-links.aspx

Wow. Thanks, Olivier. Many thanks. Is this one that killer version of "Spread Your Wings"? I listened to it long ago and was looking for it!!!  Thanks a million.

Well...(heads down, kicking the floor softly and knotting the fingers as a result of absolute shyness)...well...how’s life in general? Belgium is a beautiful country...did you read about the soaring surge in the unemployment rates of the three Baltic states? (trying to look clever). The economic downturn...(cleaning the glasses and tossing the hair)...well...it must have something to do with the surprising results of the Japanese elections. By the way, do you remember Queen, the band? The rock band? I listened to one of their gigs a long time ago and sometimes I think it’d be an interesting experience to listen to it again. The ¨hanging around¨ gig, do you happen, I’m not asking you to share it, by no means, I’m just asking because...I know fans like to talk about their most beloved bands, so, if you wanna talk about it I offer my ears and eyes and all my attention...so if you happen to have the ¨hanging around¨ gig and would like to about it, I’m here, I understand this need of the fans, sometimes they even want to share the stuff they like, I’m not saying you should, of course, I’m here as an understanding friend whom you can freely talk to.

Thanks. See you anytime.

Hahaha. Of course. Being a student of physics myself, I always thought the role of the uneven ground in farmers' neck acrobatics was being exaggerated. Those fancy tractors people use nowadays in the fields have such a powerful shock absorber that they could drive it up and down the pyrennes as if they were traveling across a flat, lavishly colored dreamy meadow. 

Now you see. If, during "One" or any other song, one happens to crash his head against the wheel, he may well sue Metallica for damages! The only way the band could then prove their innocence would be demonstrating that the driver had been listening to MP3 versions of official material downloaded in the web!!! Tractor drivers of the world, unite! (?)

Since you're insisting so much on sharing the concert...I get even embarrassed. Hehehe. : -) It's the hanging around gig, the gig in which Freddie nails the highest verses of "If You Can't Beat Them" just perfectly. It's sounds even more exciting than in the recording because the delivery is raw, almost brutish, full of bravura, and strength and yet the vocals sound very clean - less raspy than in Jazz. 

It's that concert in Saarbrücken in 1979. It's one of the last concerts before what's known as the "Crazy Tour", I guess - that series of concerts held in December. The Saarbrücken was in August or September. I don't know if they played more than one night there but the version I listened to was the "hanging around" one - it's a pet name I gave to the concert because of the powerful rendition of the song and of this particular, and quite difficult, line.

HELLO SIRGH!!! You have to comment on this in the website. I don't remember listening to Roger harmonizing that section of the song in this gig so it's very likely that they agreed on not doing the usual live vocal harmony to see how Freddie would fair trying to hit the higher notes. It was planned!!! It was maybe a warm-up for the Crazy Tour when Freddie would go out of his way to get his vocals sounding closer to the album versions. Interestingly enough, the thing must have been impossible to go on with, since by the very end of 1979 at the Hammersmith Freddie doesn't go for the A-based verses and drops his pitch to the usual E and adjusts the volume of his delivery to let room for Roger to harmonize the lines, as they usually did! And Freddie took some significant risks in the gig at the Hammersmith! 

Torrents are not working for me now. That's a major problem, though. : -( 

Olivier, if you feel like sharing it, I understand. You can count on me to download it, I'd be very glad to help you talking about and sharing these things you like so much. lol  : -)) 

Ok, I better go. :op

I'd like to listen to the Stockholm 1978 one too - it's a concert very early in the tour. When time allows, and if someone feels like sharing it, I'd be really greateful. 

Now I'll go before I get slapped in the face. lol

Yeah, you're probably right.  Either that, or Roger was pissed off about his green hair and just wasn't into it.
