Watching the concert now. Several artists saying very nice things about Queen. In a behind-the-scenes rehearsal video shown between acts the guy from Fun said he stayed up late as an 8 year old to watch the Freddie tribute concert and it made him want to be a musician. Brian told him it was moving to hear a story like that.
I can't watch this, is anyone else following it? There's a lot less activity than there was for the Kiev show, where people were posting the setlist as it went - makes sense though if people can't access the livestream.
Bohemian Rhapsody (short)
Another One Bites The Dust
Crazy Little Thing Called Love
Who Wants To Live Forever
Somebody To Love (with FUN)
Fat Bottomed Girls (with FUN)
Dragon Attack
Bohemian Rhapsody (Reprise)
We Will Rock You
We Are The Champions
Sounds like they only played for 40-45 minutes?
Don't expect more, iHeart is a shitty festival. Also, a lot of casuals in the audience, and the organization put the 'best dressed' in front row for the livestream.
iHeart, great bill, poor organization.
It reminds me of their Live Aid set. Just nowhere near as good. I'm surprised Brian and Roger are willing to do these 'jukebox'-type of performances on a non-charity event.

iHeart is about putting the MTV acts on top.
The fact that Justin Timberlake is headlining on top of Paul McCartney is just disgraceful.
Sacrilege.
I don't care how much money anyone's making. How can someone who makes that kind of executive decision sleep at night?
