Two concerts are very untypical: in Hannover Freddie falls down the stairs during Hammer To Fall and injures his knee. Phoebe and Crystal help him to the piano and despite the pain he sings three more songs: Bohemian Rhapsody, We Will Rock You and We Are The Champions. The event obviously has an impact on Brian who is confused and starts playing the guitar solo in We Will Rock You too early! Something similar happens in Sun City: Freddie loses his voice after Under Pressure and the whole concert (October 7) has to be stopped and cancelled. The Dortmund concert was rescheduled from September 10 to September 11 (only the tickets sold on the day of the concert are printed with the real date). Not to September 12, as some concertographies say.

Please note that ALL other concertographies are WRONG about the Sun City dates! I have done extensive research and although I'm not 100% sure, the Sun City dates on this website are more accurate than in any other books, websites or concertographies. The interrupted Sun City concert was on October 7 and the two cancelled gigs were on October 9 and October 10).
