It's from Pat Badger (Extreme bassist) - he uploaded it as a bonus to pledgers on his recent solo album pledge campaign. He has also uploaded a fair amount of backstage footage from the Freddie Tribute.
He has the whole of that Wembley gig in his vaults - it was filmed with a multi camera shoot for official release but never got that far.
(A little aside - I was there, following two nights at a The Marquee seeing The Cross; a great three consecutive nights!!)

So BADGER was a member of Extreme? No wonder Brian supported the band that much!

hahahahaha, indeed, Ogre !! :-)
btw, I've been following Pat Badger's uploads at pledgemusic and he has certainly shared very cool stuff. The backstage footage at the FM Tribute was amazing, as well as the Abbey Road sessions footage while recording the symphonic parts for the "III Sides To Every Story" Extreme album.
a very nice way to record an album and involve fans in the making process.
I pledged, and so far I'm more than satisfied.

Me too. Perhaps most importantly, his new solo stuff sounds superb too!

Totally agree ! and it's so nice to see Pat handling lead vocals at last. His backing vox in Extreme always hinted him as a very gifted vocalist.
It seems good times are coming again -at last- in the Extreme front, after the "Rhianna hiatus",eh? After Pat's album, work on next Extreme record is likely to start. And they are touring Pornograffitti in Europe next summer!
I've already booked a VIP package for their gig at Barcelona on June 27th ! Can't wait, yeah !
I've pledged too guys, and really looking forward to Pat's album. Vali, have a blast at the show, amazing band in my favourite city in the world, I'm envious :)
