Great photo. Never seen it before.
I vote for US 1980... beyond that I have no idea.
I've seen this pic (there are 3 or 4 more) for ages and always wondered where is that arena. As you said, Bob, definately from the US 1980, thanks mate ;)
For some reason I was thinking mecca arena Milwaukee and I now realise why! same outfit as on the cover of one of my cds (minus shades) obviously just because its similar to its a killers cover dont necessarily mean the photo was taken at the mecca arena. If anyone knows where wardours" its a killer" cover was shot then that could be your location. Hope this helps

that's another great press pic from the same arena but it's not Mecca, I'm afraid...
there's another pic from that session which features Freddie & Rog only

Possibly Seattle 1st of July 1980, if the photographer has his dates right.

Unfortunately they often don't. Sometimes a stock date is chosen, and the first of a month is usually selected.
Nice to see these pics all in one place !
I sent the pic from behind the stage to Martin (mr scully) about 10yrs ago. It came from Saul Swimmer who said it was took in Atlanta while they were discussing making the WWRY/Rock Montreal film. He obviously got his venues mixed up.
