I'm always happy to answer. :) The first link is from Oct 17, which is the same show as the one I shared. That one is also a compilation, and I took a couple pieces from that one, which is the inferior source. The majority of my copy sounds better than that one. The second link is from the second night (sometimes it's mislabeled as Oct 16). I've got a second generation recording of that night, and it sounds very good... but not quite as good as the first night. If Martin's recording is the commonly circulating one, then mine should sound a bit better. I have another copy of that show including the part with I Go Crazy, but it really doesn't sound too good. In theory, I could make a mix of those two sources, but overall, they just don't sound nearly as good as the first night. Therefore, I honestly don't think I want to share that one here, because there are many other recordings that are a lot better quality and, in my mind, more worthy of being shared. Speaking of which, I think I'm going to share a third gen copy of Oakland 80 next, in EX quality. Or do you have any other requests?

What a shame, Maruga. Are you sure that both events are related? And, if they are, do you blame the proxy or your ISP? I say that because it's been working fine for me for weeks, both at home and at work. Cheers, Ogre-

Well, that's sort of a relief. I'll keep an eye open, anyway. Thanks for bringing it to my attention. Cheers, Ogre-

Yes, that's true. The concerts in Puebla were at Estadio Ignacio Zaragoza.

No. Wrong. The stadium is called Estadio Cuauhtémoc, Puebla de Zaragoza, Mexico. One of the streets where the stadium is placed at it's called Ignacio Zaragoza.

Sir GH<br><h6>ah yeah</h6> wrote: (...) Priceless moments: During the middle of NIH, Freddie reacts to the rowdy audience throwing shoes at the band: "Feels like bloody Chelsea Cobbler, I tell you!" (for those who don't know, Chelsea Cobbler is a men's shoe store in London). And at the end of the show, he says "Thank you for the shoes! Adios amigos, you motherfuckers! You bunch of tacos, goodbye!" However, it's worth noting that on the second night, these were his closing words: "Thank you for being a totally different audience tonight. We all thank you." The stories often circulate that Queen's concerts in Mexico were horrible for the band, but the bootlegs reveal that it was just the one concert in Puebla that gave them problems. Fans who attended the Monterrey show have also said their concert went smoothly. As for what happened in Mexico outside the concert venues, that's another story! (...)

Wiley wrote: Ok, now I got a bit confused. I only corrected the spelling on the word "Cuauhtémoc" without remembering or checking if the venue was correct. Estadio Cuauhtémoc is indeed on a street called "Calzada Ignacio Zaragoza" but this is a soccer stadium (World cup matches were played here both in 1970 and 1986). "Estadio Ignacio Zaragoza" is a baseball stadium and many sources, including a ticket scan in Mr. Scully's site (queenconcerts.com) and many reviews of the show online by mexican fans, claim that the concert took place here and NOT at Cuauhtémoc Stadium so the venue should read "Estadio Ignacio Zaragoza".

Ademas de que no existe tal calle que dices ninguna cerca de los dos Estadios se llama asi. No confundas a la gente por favor!

Indeed... Another example of stadiums names: Queen played in Argentina at the Estadio de Vélez Sarsfield, but the real name of that stadium is Estadio José Amalfitani... Am i right Mr. Solan?

Are you finally going to share some audio with us for a change, instead of taunting us with pictures? That soundcheck sure sounds interesting.

Oh, I see it now - but do you mean 'combo' as in McDonald's or 'convoy' as in the Far West? ;-)

Sir GH<br><h6>ah yeah</h6> wrote: Even though the ticket says what it says, I heard from someone who attended the shows that the wrong venue was printed on the tickets!

<font color="lime">Raf840 wrote: Sorry if the question is dumb or silly... But what exactly happened in Mexico when they were not playing, outside the venues?

For starters, for the entire crew to get into Mexico on time, the band had to bribe the authorities at the border, because there was a limit of visas they could issue each day. I think it was 500 pounds, which was pocket change for them! Secondly, the promoter for the shows somehow got arrested, and the band had to bail him out. Third, the band didn't get paid for the second night in Puebla. It was some tax crap of some sort. Queen got fed up from everything and left Mexico, although they told the promoter they were heading off to another city for the next gig. Needless to say, the promoter was pretty upset when he found out that the band had left the country! But he made plenty of money from the shows... probably more than the band did!
