That set list looks identical to Leicester the night after. Alas I cannot download at the moment, my phone line and broadband are dead (using 3G for this). I'll have to wait.
They haven't changed the setlist in quite some time, to be honest. The only thing they've done significantly different is remove the intermission in the middle!
Thank You, Inu-Liger for giving up your time to split the tracks, equalise & everything else that goes with it. Also thank you for posting it here.

I'm seeing them in Glasgow tomorrow. What time did they come on stage elsewhere?
Sheffield was really early, they came on at 7:15pm & the show finished at 9:15pm. The reason being is the venue in Sheffield at 10pm becomes a night club for Friday night revellers. But I do believe all the other venues it has been about 9PM that they came on stage.
Just went to Glasgow gig, thought it was pretty bad, tight young band but I wish cover bands would stop and make new music of there own, Why do we need this?
Why go to a "cover bands" show if you're only going to criticize what they do for fun or a living?? And also, for your information, some of the QE members DO write their own music and sell their own CD's among the official merch! I'm guessing you couldn't have done your own research however, considering I have to point it out to you straight up.
You just shot down your own credibility and logic all in one post without anyone else's help. Here's some helpful advice: THINK, next time.
Ha Ha yeah I did see 2 of the band selling there cd's at the merch stall and probably they may be good because the band are great musician's, but they are on the road as a cover band and not playing there own music,I don't often go to any cover bands shows ever only wanted to see QE because of the Taylor connection but I still feel they are pointless. My opinion.
Not meaning to be a moany git, just like you all love Queen and cant get into tribute acts etc,I find it the same with all bands, doors, Floyd etc, it's just hard when your an older git like me to watch others perform your fav groups songs, I didn't have to pay to get in as I work in the crew, so that's why I watched the show, try to like these things but just cant, sorry!!!! as I said top musicians play and sound fantastic specially tyler, just prefer to see good musicians playing original music of there own, I did get a copy of tyler's cd but not listened to it yet, I take it you liked the show?
I loved the Leicester show and I don't see what your problem is QueenTwo. These musicians are getting exposure doing QE and it will help their own careers. And we get to see a good representation ot Queen music played live. Seems like a win all round to me. Why go at all if you know you've got something against tribute bands.
I think Tyler's new album (Fallout) is fantastic. All instruments in his music are the real thing, Tyler told me himself there is "DEFINITELY nothing artificial of any kind" on it. "Even the 'Intro' song was guitar parts that I messed with, effects-wise."
At least two of his songs are on youtube, mixes of his band doing them live in Nashville.
This is a great recording, nice and clear. Thanks very much to all involved.
The crowd are great too, plenty of singing. If QE comes to the UK again I'll probably go to a different venue to Leicester, I didn't realise what a pokey little place it was (with very little parking as I found when I got there).
EDIT: having said that, the deciding factor as it was this time will probably be where they're playing on a Saturday night. Fridays I'm busy, and other nights need holiday taking to get there.
