...am I the only one who has bought it yet?
I'm still at work so haven't had the chance to watch it yet, but any seen it - look/sound good?
Bit dissapointed about the packaging and lack of bonus stuff though.
(But, I bought the Audioslave DVD and Episode III DVD too, and they're stuffed with bonus stuff, so I'm no too dissapointed.)
I just bought it and I like it. Though I haven't watched yet, but I've checked booklet and there's my name: "tr. 28 remixed by Ross Roberston & SERGEY Tarakanov". Mr Tarakanov is DJ Koma, by the way (...and he has the same name as me) :)

Well filmed item, really!
Got the DVD yesterday. You can clearly see Roger and Brian entertaining the audience. Paul is very boring to watch at in my opinion. Doesn't interact with the audience very much.Clearly not the greatest showman.
After all a nice DVD. Not very special because of less interessting material used. Miss the Rehearsels, footage of Budapest and knebworth, a decent interview with all the members. Building the show.
I also find the lights very anoying. When they take a close up of Brian or his guitar the shot gets blinded by the lights after 2 secs.
I GOT IT!!!!! WATCHED IT AND IT FUCKIN ROCKS! SOOOOOOOOOO SAD BOH RHAP AND THESE ARE THE DAYS!
"Imagen" HYDE PARK WAS WICKED!! BROUGHT BACK MEMORYS FOR ME AS I WAS THERE!!
THEY BETTER HAVE THAT OUT ON DVD SOON!
FANTASTIC DVD! :D :D :D :D :D :D
Great DVD and performance as well... but can anybody explain the Paul Rodgers hand thing? Kinda reminds me of Donald Trump doing the "you're fired" bit; quite funny... as well as all the condom throwing. jajajaja. I laughed, I cried, I rocked out! Two thumbs WAY WAY up for Q+PR.

I bought a copy from eBay ($20 US in total), since the Canadian release was (and I think is still) delayed :P
I thought it was awesome.
I can't get enough of the drum solo (Let There Be Drums) :D
The 5.1 mix is very well done from what I've heard, when I brought the DVD to a store I used to work at that sells home theatre systems.
I was surprised that they used Freddie's vocals from BohRap in the centre channel. I was worried that the vocal and piano bits used from Wembley would only be used in the front stereo (L/R) speakers)!
I too am disappointed by the lack of extras.
Hopefully these will be restored if the concert comes out on Blu-Ray or HD-DVD (IF the latter format survives to see its launch next year, given that virtually ALL major movie studios are now supporting Blu-Ray, which IMO is for the better)
What would be nice, speaking of Blu-Ray, is if we could get small boxsets of the Summer Open Air Tour concerts released on that and DVD.
Wonderfull DVD!!!
My only critical note is the changing of camera's.... It's great they have so much different "points of view" but they are changing too often and too fast, so I can't really focus on something for a while..... They might have done it more like the wembley dvd.. or live at the bowl....
But that's all the nagging I'm going to do....
The DVD ROCKS!!!!
QUEEN ROCKS, AND QUEEN LIVES MORE THAN EVER!!!
The dvd looks and sounds great.I love all songs brian and roger sing!!Paul isn't always spot-on.He changes the emotion of some songs and I don't like it.For example:break free ,AOBTD,CLTCL,...I prefer watching freddie on DVD of course.He's unique and he can't be replaced.Sad but true.This said:I still enjoy this dvd because it's great music and they are great musicians.I would give it 3stars.

True. I noticed this sometimes. Like at the end of Tie Your Mother Down, with the big drum finish - why not show Rog? Sod Brian repeating a couple of chords over and over or Paul spinning a microphone stand, I wanna see the visual to go with the main sound.
I didnt get to go to this gig, but I did get to go to a lot of the others and I found that they had improved ten fold by the time they got to Hyde Park, so why the hell did they film the Sheffield gig. It was dire.
As for the promise of 'extras'......What extras did we get....One lousy song.
I would big up Queen with every ounce of my body, but this is just poor. The quality of stuff from Queen (with Freddie) was just so far more superior (both Quality and Quantity).

Yes well said. Burn all the DVD's of Queen + What's his name ?
