The only one I can think of (off the top of my head) is Saturday Night Live. Can anyone think of anything else? |

There's an Entertainment Tonight segment with brief interviews of Roger John and I think Freddie and Brian as well. ...Im pretty sure someone's left out. That was apparently just before their HOT SPACE USA Tour. In terms of live performances I think SNL and AMERICAN IDOL (QUEEN +) are the only instances of that Brian did a solo spot on the Tonight Show With Jay Leno in the 1990's... supporting act for GNFNR'S tour. |

link ^HIGHLANDER link ^new haven Damn galaxy phone won't let me link properly. Just YouTube "QUEEN IN NEW HAVEN" , "QUEEN ENTERTAINMENT TONIGHT 1986" if neither work Also. .. WHAT THE HELL DOES ROGER SAY AT 2:14 in the HIGHLANDER ET clip? The start of his talk sounds like absolute cockney gibberish. |

Thanks musicland. It actually makes sense to my ears now and I can't hear it like I had before. This is so strange. Weren't they also on local tv in the 1970's? Song snippets and back stage stuff? But they never performed on live aside from Saturday Night Live .... right? |

Brian May did host a VH1 special in 1991 before Freddie passed away. It was a Queen special and Brian did announce all the clips and talked about the video and music. It was a 1 hour special. |

As mentioned above, there is the New Haven 82 footage from Entertainment Tonight. They were on Don Kirshner's Rock Concert on February 8, 1977, but not a live appearance - they showed the promo video of Somebody To Love and Sweet Lady from the Hyde Park 76 show. Promo videos were rarely seen on US TV back then, so this was a rarity. MTV didn't come until the 80s. Maybe they were on Midnight Special too? And then there are the short TV reports... There's a report with some New York 76 soundcheck footage of Now I'm Here and an interview with Freddie. There's a short report from one of the LA 1980 shows. There's the footage of the band walking through the corridor with Michael Jackson to their last US show in LA 82. And there's this 1977 report with a few seconds of footage, but the footage has never gotten out - just these screenshots: link link And then there's the one-off special called "The Champions" aired on 12-22-79. It had Paris 79, Tokyo 79 and various other footage. A bizarre mish-mash that actually took a lot of work to compile, as it was riddled with edits. But it has some footage that was never seen elsewhere. Any others? |

The US VH-1 show that is being referenced was called My Generation. It was normally hosted by Peter Noone of Herman's Hermits. Brian hosted two episodes in 1991 to help promote Innuendo. |

One is pro shot and the other is 8mm shot from the audience. |

As to 'The Midnight Special' (personal knowledge only). If I saw an advertisement that they were going to be 'on' for a period of time, I would watch. Caught the BoRhap vid 4-6 times. After that, I was working 2nd shift plus OT, and hitting a bar afterwards, where I saw STL twice. No idea if any NOTW vids were shown, as my interest in the show had severely waned. Absolutely have no clue as to why I remember Debby Harry introducing the FBG vid (and groaning to the occasional slo-mo). Those were the last times I saw those videos until around '97 or so. MTV did an edited Caracas concert late '83/early '84, back when 11pm on Saturday nights was 'must see TV' for their concert offerings. - test edit |

This could mean there's a copy out there with much better audio. There's no way they would've broadcast a version like the one we have on DVD. |

I thought it was later than that, though.....maybe I saw a rerun :D I think they would have a 'guest host' from time to time, though I can't remember who else they had aside from Brian....the one thing I remember was Brian breaking out the Red Special and playing a few licks before introducing one of the videos :D Also there was that 'semi-unplugged' performance he did for VH1 in '98.... |

tried to correct my earlier erroneous post, but cannot. It was a South American concert....not sure of location. Sorry if I raised any false hopes from my haste and faulty at times memory |
