Here is a torrent of the show Double-U just shared here with Mediafire. Below are his notes:
As requested I share the concert at the Ice Stadium in Stockholm on April the 10th in 1982
It was the second gig of the Hot Space tour and has some special moments.
After "Get Down, Make Love" the audience began to sing "We Will Rock You" and Freddie also started to sing it.
Later Freddie started to sing the first line of Save Me: "It started off so well... " but Brian didn't play along on the piano. Freddie stopped and commented: "It didn't start off so fucking well!" After which he laughed and they both started the song off together again.
And Queen performed the song "Not Fade Away" from the Rolling Stones.
Absolutely a nice recording and here it comes:

Good download and enjoy :)
Is this the best source, yes or no? I think we have to find a consensus between us to choose which is the best. All the Gypsy Eye releases sound heavily remastered and not natural at all and it seems to me that the best sources should be chosen between all the unremastered sources or at least not ruined recordings as this one.
I agree with SIR GH about the sound quality. But there are some jewels there in what is otherwise a weak concert. Their performance of Bohemian is absolutely amazing. It's blistering and Taylor and Freddie are on fire. I wrote that elsewhere, but the grand finale is just off the wall in terms of skill. That "ooooooh baby...." we all feel the need to shout sometimes, it executed by Mercury flawlessly. He stretches the note much longer than usual, the note keeps its color, timbre and pitch throughtout its whole duration and, what's really interesting, Freddie not only sings it probably a seminote higher than in the studio recording but with much more power and SMOOTHLY. Believe me, there's NO VIBRATO during the whole finale. There's not any sign of vibrato, to be precise. It's quite a feat because, you know, taking such a long note so high without vibrato and with such resonance...he goes for it, definetely.
My favorite song, Under Pressure, is ok right up to the final verses. From then on it gets magical because Taylor's voice is so well tuned and he hits the right note so squarely that he takes Freddie together with him and, surprise, they manage to sing the whole thing much closer to the studio recording than in the official release of the Montreal gig with all the DTS and stuff.
is this the 16th or the 10th as in the description ..the d.l. says 16th desc. is the 10th .. ?

I agree, not a great show. But I also enjoy the average ones, they're interesting to listen to. Brian also plays a great solo in Liar here. And the bit before 'Save me' is pure Mercury, I love his comment:-)
Freddie was bit rough during the first few Hot Space shows, the same thing happened in Europe'80. In shows like Leiden or Paris he wouldn't be as strong yet as London and Brussels in december.
