"Don't be ridiculous you impertinent little man"
Freddie's riposte to the Newcastle copper, who boarded the NATO tour bus in '75, after a disgruntled former employee allegedly tipped off the police, after the city hall show, that there were drugs on board.
I can imagine that copper regaling that 'un to all and sundry in subsequent years after Freddie gained his legendary status .
"I'd rather not go to jail in a leotard!"
Or something like that. Isn't that what he apparently said when the police stopped the hyde park show? I don't know if he actually said it or if it's just a rumor but its funny ^^
............and of course the dressing room footage , bedecked in harlequin leotard, : " I can't do my own laces, it's just not rock n roll, Dave!, do do do !" (gesticulating to an assistant).
. Absolute sheer class. Wot a bloke.
Actually his name is Dane (Cook) not Dave. But I SOOO agree with you about Freddie's comment to the cops after their entourage got "raided." I think I even used it on someone a few years ago but it went right over their head!
I'm as gay as a daffodil dear (1974)
We were hungry.....For a hamburger(1984)
Nobody told me this would be as hot as a bathouse....let's all shower together after the show
