I recorded this myself back in 2001 and I've never come across another copy, although that doesn't mean there aren't any!
Security was VERY tight that night and many video recordings were stopped midway and tapes confiscated :(
Because it was 7 years ago, I can't remember exact details of equipment used, but it was minidisc set to LP mode (ie, full quality mono) and it was recorded with a Radio Shack boundary mic.
The recording was also probably EQ'd in Soundforge to add some treble to it.
This is a rip of the CD I made at the time. The original Minidisc will have been re-used many times since.
This is disc two of a 2 CD set I made.
Disc one is just the SAS Band, whereas it's disc 2 that focuses on Queen songs and features Roger & Brian making a "surprise" appearance. (It was a surprise to many, but some of us knew - hence recording equipment & video cameras....)

It was an amazing night, especially to those of us who were unlucky enough to have never seen Queen before.
To have both Roger & Brian on stage performing together was a dream come true to many, including myself.

As requested, here is disc1
It's the SAS band performing all the tracks with numeroud guest vocalists. Please don't ask who they are as I can't remember!
Also, if some of the song titles are incorrect, please forgive me, I'm a Queen fan and there are millions of songs by other artsists that I'm familiar with but haven't a clue what they are called.... :)

OK I just want to tell you that the 2 tracks you posted as mp3 are in fact the first flac file in the original upload :-)
Thanks anyway
Oh that's a shame [img=/images/smiley/msn/sad_smile.gif][/img]
I was hoping that meant someone else had recorded the concert as well and maybe had a better copy...
