pittrek wrote: I noticed again something strange - when "Dave" leaves the stage with Freddie, his shirt is black, e.g.1:19:00 . When they cut to the next shot, at 1:19:09, the film quality changes and "Dave" has a blue shirt on. When the video cuts again to the next shot, to the bad quality shot, Dave has again a black shirt on.

pittrek wrote: Also one quick note to Chin - the concert footage is the same(?) in both of the 2017 documentaries (American Dream / Rock the World).

Chinwonder2 wrote: Just picked up on something here, there's a very small clip of colour of the 'Atlanta' soundcheck, and Freddie's wearing that same brown jacket. However, in the background of one of the shots, you can see some sort of camera. Now, is this Houston? haha. -Chin

Chinwonder2 wrote: Also again (sorry for the spam of replies), during the GSTQ clip which is 100% from Houston, Dave is in a black shirt walking Freddie down the corridor, whereas before he's in the white shirt in the dressing room, here's a few more screenshots of what I think, let me know your thoughts: During the dressing room (white T-Shirt): This one is 100% from Houston: Dave & Freddie down the corridor with a dark blue/navy jumper: Dressing room after the show with Dave in a white T-Shirt: Dave blowdrying Freddie's hair which is from Houston as he's wearing the same black T-Shirt and cream/white trousers from the GSTQ shot: So from what I can see, there are 3 different nights here, so one is possibly Atlanta, one is 100% Houston and the other is maybe Fort Worth or Las Vegas? Guesses are White T-Shirt = Atlanta Black T-Shirt = Houston 100% Blue jumper (the very short clip) = Fort Worth or Las Vegas -Chin

Chinwonder2 wrote: Just to clarify and so I'm not being stupid, these are the bits you're referring to. To your knowledge, this is Houston: This is Atlanta:

pittrek wrote: And I apologize - the title of this thread is killing me - "documenantry" - I know, I'm an annoying grammar nazi :-)

pittrek wrote: Back in 2011 this was reported to be Houston, but in the 2017 documentaries it was suddenly The Omni. I never understood why

pittrek wrote: OK, this is getting fascinating. The SAME brick walls, the SAME fire extinguisher, the SAME people, but DIFFERENT Freddie trousers, and DIFFERENT Freddie "jacket"? They didn't spend 2 nights at the same venue, did they? Or can it be that one shot is from before the concert and one is after the concert? My head hurts.

Chinwonder2 wrote: Freddie's movements are quite similar but are still different. So we officially have two different concert clips. It's gonna be next to impossible to know which night that shot is from though, without some sort of inside information, as there's nothing distinguishing at all. BOB HELP US lol.

Chinwonder2 wrote: Just spotted another thing, these don't look like the same Arenas to me, so perhaps the 'Atlanta' Soundcheck is actually Houston and the stage crew packing away the equipment is actually Atlanta? Houston?: Atlanta?: -Chin

Chinwonder2 wrote: The extra scenes in the packing segment come from the 'American Dream' DVD & leaving the hotel clip comes from the ending of the TV edit, just before the Queen + AL WATC bit. -Chin

The Real Wizard wrote: Pittrek is correct. @ 1:02:59 it's the rehearsals at Shepperton Studios. Mercury and the lighting director Joe Trovato are discussing the lights, and that's not something that would happen mid-tour. Compare it to 53:30 - that's the same room.

Chinwonder2 wrote: Hello everyone, So a couple of years back, QZ user 'Bullub' created a compilation and merged together all the available Bob Harris footage that was shot for an upcoming documentary for the Old Grey Whistle Test. That post can be found here: /queenzone/1448556.html Since then, new clips have appeared on the 2017 (40th anniversary docs on NOTW) and in the Bejart Ballet (which I forgot to include in this version of the video). I decided to update and also fix up they're original video and I'm presenting it here first so that I can get some feedback before sharing it properly. -Chin

Bullub wrote: Pittrek, I think London was filmed by DoRo in 1987

Chinwonder2 wrote: Here’s the full V2 everyone, I’d like you all to voice your opinions on this edit please :) -Chin

Chinwonder2 wrote: Also, I'm not sure what to do regarding the order of the interviews, it's gonna be next to impossible to figure out the date for each one. :/ -Chin

emrabt wrote: In my opinion, the first bit, with them walking up the stairs is correct in the "incorrect" footage, As the sleeve of the jacket reads RAMS (Or something similar), and the"S" is correct here. The rest is correct in your "correct" footage as the wording on Freddies jacket matches the black and white footage, ITV obviously flipped it in their broadcast.

Schmelvin wrote: I think the whole portion of the 'Incorrect?' is correct.

Chinwonder2 wrote: V3 is out, perhaps the final draft? Do give feedback, I won't bite, honest haha -Chin

Chinwonder2 wrote: @HelloDelilah Thanks for the feedback! I've looked at the duplicate footage and the only reason why it's the same audio, is because that particular clip just so happens to have the audio from the video behind it. As the two 'Rock The World' and 'The American Dream' are slightly different, one has more than the other on occasions and this is one of those times. The 'My Fairy King' texts come from the Champions Of The World/The Phenomenon documentary. Previously Bullub cropped out the image which made for a jarring watch imo :). And yeah, I've fixed that, my bad haha. @Schmelvin Thanks, didn't spot that before, that's now been fixed! :) -Chin

pittrek wrote: By the way the interview starting at 27 minutes was filmed during the US tour, maybe it would be a better idea to put it somewhere to the tour part? Just thinking

Chinwonder2 wrote: Ok, I think that's correct now? If you come across anything else, feel free to let me know, I want this compilation to be as perfect as possible! -Chin

Chinwonder2 wrote: V5 is now up for feedback :) -Chin
