The performances tonight are truly great but poor Brain isn't as lucky, he messes up his solo on Somebody To Love, the transition between Death On Two Legs and Killer Queen ans breaks a string halfway through Liar in which Roger improvs on the Hi-Hat until Brain comes back with a Red Special Copy, but after that his playing is spot-on.
Freddie also makes a rare reference to his vocal nodules during the intro speech to White Man; "It's a real bitch of a song. It really gets to the nodules". Not often Freddie would do that.
The soundcheck video of Tie Your Mother Down comes from the "Stormtroopers in Stilettoes" Queen exhibition in 2011, filmed by Leo Pelz using his phone. Many thanks to him for recording this rarity! Which can be downloaded here:
