By the way the headphones we are using are AirPods one of the loudest headphones out currently so we heard everything loud and clear so please don’t trip about the headphones and also I do videos by myself I wasn’t prepared to film with anybody 😊
I dont think the problem is how loud they are. With Queen songs you hear different parts with each earbud. Especially with Bohemian Rhapsody. So if you share you are each missing parts. Be better to just do without if both of you are listrning.
Marggie is correct, Queen studio work is heard best with both earbuds/headphones because panning or flipping different sounds from one side to the other is part of the overall effect they were building. Trust us, you will thank us for it !
Hi from the UK 🇬🇧. If I may? Don’t rise to peoples negative comments. In truth when I first started watching your reactions to Queen I found you a bit much. I’m a female black Brit and we Brits are subtle in most ways. But it’s my decision to continue to watch your reactions. People forget that as you are learning about Queen, we are learning about you. Most comments are meant as constructive criticism by us Queen fans. Though not a big deal for me, for other reactions to Queen without headphones is sacrilege. If you try to please everyone, you’ll end up pleasing no one and loose who you are in the process. Just do you. People who don’t accept you and / or your reactions will move on. Great reaction so far. Gonna continue now. Take care. Stay safe and healthy.
Vincit, I wasnt being mean. I just wanted him to know that sharing earbuds would cause him to miss alot. Like I said, it would be better if they did without them if 2 are listening.
@@marggie4129 Hey 👋 I didn’t read anyone’s post just his response. I was just trying to let him know that it might seem as being mean but it’s constructive criticism. To be able to grow mentally, psychologically and emotionally we should be able to handle constructive criticism. That’s part of how I learn and grow. I also mentioned that we Queen fan are a nice family around the world. Not that some of the comments aren’t going to be totally uncalled for. I even mentioned that at the beginning I found him too much however, I chose to continue to watch his reactions because I’ve learnt to embrace how he reacts. There are some reactors that are a no no. I just reminded him that as he is learning about Queen, we are learning about him. I wasn’t taking a dig at anyone I was trying to say different people have different foibles so the best for him is to be him. Not for a second was I taking a jab at anyone. You have your reasons to comment and you owe no one an explanation.
No one could command a crowd like Freddie. Remember, this was not a Queen concert. They were a list minute add in so they weren’t even on the bill. Side note, Freddie was told not to perform this show due to the fact that he had a throat infection. The man was sick and still sang like that. Legend!
I saw Queen live in Montreal, it was one of the best concerts ever. Freddie was the master of crowd control. More than 83,000 people in that stadium with half a million more watching live, he held the world in the palm of his hands for 20 minutes that day. It is great to see younger generations experience the music of my generation.
Just to watch Freddie strut his stuff across the stage was a joy to behold and hold the audience in the palm of his hand none of today's band could ever equal R.IP freddie
When you talk about the size of the audience there was reckoned to be about 1.9 BILLION watching worldwide at the time when there was approximately 5 Billion on the planet, that 4 in every 10 people alive then watched this concert for famine relief in Africa.
Unfortunately today's generation do not realise great music. When bands wrote and composed their own songs. Played their own instruments. Today they are spoilt by computers doing the music for them which takes out the genius of actual instruments and playing them. Freddie even said this in the 80s that one day the magic would be taken out of music and computers would take over. These bands played all live. No autotune back then...no playback. Most concerts by performers today are sung a lot via playback and autotune help. They do not do 43 odd concert tours. Live Aid had each band perform in a 17 minute or so set. Most other bands played up to 3 songs..Queen practiced and rehearsed to fit 6 songs in. This is why it's voted best live concert. Their catalogue is massive and widely sung today...30, 40 odd years on. I can't think of many today who will be remembered like Queen or prince or MJ etc. Not in 50 years time. This is music. There is no teaching today's youngsters what proper music is. They have been brought up in a different generation of "music".
They are but slowly. They not ready! Freddy is a BEAST! 😍❤🙏🏼
Always a bad idea to judge a whole generation of people as being the same. There are plenty of younger people who are into Queen and other classic rock bands and other genres. Generalising makes you look ignorant.
Most definitely I grew up in the 60s 70s and 80s so that generation of music was the best ever after the '80s it just wasn't the same lip syncing started to happen and oh my God that was a big deal back then if someone was caught lip syncing it was very shameful to do that now they do it all the time why pay to go to a concert if someone's going to lip sync it that's just wrong to me
@@isthisjustfantasy7557 I meant it as a reference..obviously I did not mean the whole entire people of todays generation..I said this generation who listen to the computerised music 🎶
If you want to introduce this cute kid to Queen try the songDon’t Stop Me Now. It appeals to very young kids and actually everyone. This kid will love it.
what a fantastic reaction, and it's great seeing a new Queen fan being born. This was a great day, i know, i was there. 8th row from the front, and slightly left of center. what a day that was.
You think that crowd is huge? They actually played to a crowd more than 3 times larger in Brazil!!
The guitar that Dr. Brian May (Ph.D. in Astrophysics) is playing is called the Red Special. Brian built it with the help of his father in his late teens (age 16-18). He couldn't afford the type of guitar he wanted so he designed and built it. The design he created was so advance of anything available at that time (the mid-1960s) the many of the innovations were added to the design of other electric guitars. For example, it features three single-coil pick-ups (most guitar only have 1 pick-up) that are wired in series rather than the more usual parallel configuration. (A guitar pickup is a device that converts the vibrations of guitar strings into electrical signals. These signals are then sent to a guitar amplifier, which boosts them to audible volumes.). There are switches for each pick-up that allows him to switch each pick-up in or out of phase while playing to create different sounds.
He built it so well that it is now over 50-year-old and has traveled with him all over the world (the change in air pressure from flying can cause guitars to breakdown) yet the Red Special has never had to be rebuilt and Brian still uses it today. The name Red Special came from the reddish-brown color the guitar attained after being stained.
Queen is one of the best bands in the world! I watched this concert on tv when i was 14 years old in 1985. It was a charity concert that kept on for 13 hours with a various of artists. Queen stole the show with their immaculate performance. It was kind of a comeback for them since they hadnt playd together for a while. Thanks for a fun reaction!👋
Ok I'm 54 dude this was my teen years.
I'm 46 and these were my pre-teen years :D
Me too 😊
@MnG Same here. I was waiting to go to my friends house to go out cruising, as we did, but I had to stay and watch Queen until they'd finished.
I’m 55
Wow, I’m honestly jealous! I’m 30 in under 3 months. How I wish my teen years could’ve been filled this music - I would’ve travelled ANYWHERE to get to see Queen (*with Freddie) live just one time!
this was shown all over the world, to 1.5 Billion people, Dr. Brian May is the one playing the guitar, which he and his father built it together, it is now over 50 yrs old, and he is still playing it. Dr. Brian May was rated the #1 guitar player in the world this year, and the band Queen has been rated the #1 Live playing Band in the world, Roger is the drummer, and he is voted #3 in the World, just think, they have been going for over 50 yes now, don't think many Rappers can say anything like that. They are the best, oh and by the way Dr. Brian's May Guitar is called "The Big Red"
“Red Special” 🤗
Nice reaction. If you're talking about Brian's guitar he made it himself with dad. He still uses it. John Deacon the bassist built the amp for him
I'm an italian dude from Rome and Queen are my favourite group and Freddie is my hero since I was 5 thanks to my mom, I use to listen from classical music through 60'/70'/80'/90 rock music to hip hop and trap. I love music in general and I think it is the best thing for reaching hearts and merge the world, I'm so grateful that from the Queen's biopic my generation approached back again to older music, (which in my personal opinion is obviously better than today's one) listening how great it was and don't let it die like it was doing 10/15 years ago.
Hahaha!! Love your enthusiasm! I can watch LIVE AID over and over again. Epic!
Remind your cousin that there was no auto tune back in the day. It was all talent.
AAAAYYYY OOOOHHHH. Freddie passed November 24, 1991 😭
Brian May built his own guitar!
Red Special :D
I think he sales them now too.
The young dude did say it sounded like a rare guitar. I was screaming It IS! It's the Red Special! Bri built it with his dad!
@@kerrimcclain3648 Red Special - Never! Yes he sells his guitars mass productions but the real one no.
The one with the unique sound was made from a piece of a fire place mantle from his family home, I do believe. 😉
Brian & his Dad made his guitar when he was 17. Called it the red special & he still plays it 50 yrs later. He has a small company that makes them. 🎸
Remember David Bowie, The Who and Elton John had to perform after this!
Not sure if this is true but Bowie was heard to comment : "I got to follow that"?
@@xoxxobob61 someone said the bravest thing Bowie did was go out there after queen
@@xoxxobob61 "how am i suppose to follow that?"
It was cool Queen let all those other people play at their concert 😂😂😂
The band that followed this performance was mad that they had to follow this.
Freddie was a boxer at a school in India. Not a lot of people know that.
LOL I know
Pretty sure most Queen fans know it. Including the new Queen fans who watched the movie as it's mentioned in that.
I love seeing younger generations loving Freddy and queen like we did in my day. I was 16 years old on the day of this concert. I sat down early in the morning and watched live aid from beginning to end and recorded every bit of it. To this day really the only performances I remember are queen, Madonna, Duran Duran, mick Jager with Tina turner, And George Michael with Elton John. All the other big name ex came to this concert without rehearsing and honestly did half butt work. they didn’t realize what an impact this was going to have. But queen rehearsed and came to this concert ready and prepared. Also I remember everybody else performance has been quieter. One of the sound engineers for queen actually turned all the microphones and the sound equipment for the instrument up and that’s what made queen louder. They were used to playing large stadiums like that because they went to South America a couple years before and sold out big huge soccer arenas in Brazil and Argentina. So Freddy knew how to work the crowd better than anybody. This was the best rock live performance in history and always will be. I remember Freddie was the first single 45 that I ever is in sixth grade and a boy gave me and it vinyl record which is a single which we called 45s of queens another one bites the dust.Still have that record at my parents house. I love your enthusiasm and love for queen! Keep up the great reactions! Ignore the haters! That’s the best life advice I can give anyone no matter what age.
"Twenty-one minutes of just greatness".... Cousin: "It's pretty good" (Me: "What??? Pretty good??") Hehe! You are forgiven, because you rocked out on 'We Will Rock You' :D
Love your videos man! Love your personality. Remember this wasn't a Queen concert, so for the crowd to know all the songs and do the claps in Radio Ga Ga showed how much they knew about Queen. Also they had about 20 minutes to perform and people had to sing live (no prerecorded stuff like they would've needed to do all of Bo Rhap ). I believe he once said that his favorite instrument to play was the audience :)
This was the Live-Aid concert. Queen was one of the last bands to sign up to do this charity event for African Famine in London 1985 . They raised $127 million. Their was several amazing bands.
Exactly my dear...
I love that you get how amazing this band was.
the amazing thing about this performance is that Freddie was sick that day and losing his voice. his doctor advised against him performing.
Yeah he had a throat infection. Somehow still managed to sound amazing
I have legit never heard of a single rapper that kid mentioned.... there were over 70,000 people in that audience. And over a billion people watching via MTV world wide!
Oh my .....here we go .....a short live set......Freddie is at his best when he’s on stage. This day gave us great music...all day and all night....Live Aid = Legendary. Facts. 🎼🎶🎹🎸🎤🤘😎 Rock on dude....love your reactions!
You’re obviously a big Queen fan. The songs here are all written by different members of the band
And by the way, headphones in the 70's were HUGE and covered your entire ear. Quadrophonic was out and headphones were the only way to listen to music unless you had four speakers.
Watched this on TV
My teen yrs🎤❤
That guitar was actually made by the guitarist (Brian May) by him and his dad when he was a teenager. So it is a one of a kind of guitar!
Love seeing someone watching this video for the first time!!! ❤️
Thankyou, anything performed live by Queen I love. And especially you youngsters reacting to it! The fact they are still actual in 2020, makes my heart jump. Hope to see more and much bless and love to You ❤
Omg your enthusiasm is beyond contagious i love it
More songs for u to react: White Queen (LIVE from the Hammersmith Odeon), The March of the Black Queen, Death On Two Legs, Don't Stop Me Now, Innuendo, The Show Must Go On, I Want it All, The Great Pretender, Under Pressure (MIX with Bowie), Who Wants to Live Forever (LIVE from Budapest), Love of my Life (LIVE), Its a Hard Life, Killer Queen, The Prophet's Song, Bicycle Race, A Kind of Magic, Great King Rat, One Vision; Save Me, Dragon Attack (both LIVE from Montreal) & many more hits... There are also Freddie's solo songs like Barcelona, Living on my Own... ENJOY! haha
Yall just made my evening!
He made mine too. Really neat.
The Live Aid crowd did not even know Queen would be performing when they bought their tickets so Freddie got this reaction from a crowd who were not specifically Queen fans.
The saying from that concert was there was 2 queens that night the one from the royal family and the band that held the world in their hands for 20 minutes
Best ever, Queen did a concert at Hyde Park, UK, and were on a break, the played Bohemian Rhapsody on a speaker and the CROWD of 60,000+ sang the entire song...seriously worth watching.
I love the fact how much you love Friday because that's how we all feel about him and you're right legends never die and nobody will ever replace him ever ever ever do who wants to live Forever live at Wembley I know this is all one sentence text because I'm working and I have headphones on
What your cousin needs to realise is that Queen only decided to play at the Live Aid concert at the last minute. The crowd, about 79 thousand people in the stadium, were there to see other bands but Freddie and the guys had them all in the palm of their hands. Queen killed the show for anybody who followed them on stage. Elton John told them as much when they went off Stage, David Bowie, I think, just said "Bastards" as he was getting ready to go on.
The reason they didn't sing all of Bohemian Rhapsody was because each artist only had around 20 minutes to perform so BH would have eaten a big chunk out of their slot. Also, did you know that Brians' red guitar is a home made one of a kind.
That last shot of the crowd was of JFK Stadium Philly where the American part of Live Aid took place. Phil Collins played Wembley then flew by Concord to the US to play at Philly too.
Freddie was also sick and went against doctor advice to perform.
Love to see how much you enjoy Queen and appreciate real music. Please react to THE MIRACLE. you will be surprised. Greetings from Greece
"Freddie passed away?" "Yes sirrr"
lmao. Its so sad but the way you said it.
like 29 years ago this month 🎼🎹🎸💜🥁
Love the racer back t-shirt, the armband and the way he fucks around with the cameraman !!.....LOL
The greatest day of our teenage lives.
Live Aid was our Woodstock, and turned out to be the end of an era. The greatest era of music, 1979-85.
I was 23 when he passed and still to this day I get emotional when I hear him sing they were epic and Freddie was sick with a throat infection he went against Dr's orders to be there he said his throat felt like he was gargling with crushed glass while singing
Yes Freddie does the “impromptu” singing!!
Brian's guitar The Red Special or The Old Lady as he lovingly refers to her, has her own security guide while on tour. She's priceless.
Brian and his late father built her from an old mantel shelf and he used parts he took from his mother's knitting bag ie buttons for fret markers. Truly a one of a kind. Like ALL the members of the greatest band ever!
There were great front men. Ian Anderson of Jethro Tull, Robert Plant of Led Zeppelin and Roger Daltrey of The Who to name a couple but NO ONE was better than Freddie Mercury
About Brian May's guitar: The Red Special is the electric guitar designed and built by Queen's guitarist Brian May and his father, Harold, when Brian was a teenager in the early 1960s.[1][2] The Red Special is sometimes referred to as the Fireplace or the Old Lady by May and by others.[3] The name Red Special came from the reddish-brown colour the guitar attained after being stained and painted with numerous layers of Rustins Plastic Coating.[4] The name Fireplace is a reference to the fact that the wood used to make the neck came from a fireplace mantel.[2]
A guitar that would define May's signature style, it was intentionally designed to feed back[3][5] after he saw Jeff Beck playing live and making different sounds just by moving the guitar in front of the amplifier. He wanted an instrument that would be alive and interact with him and the air around him. May has used the Red Special almost exclusively, including on Queen albums and in live performances, since the band's advent in the early 1970s.
It's so Awesome to watch you react to Queen! Your enthusiasm and appreciation of the knowledge that you now have, and passing along the knowledge to your cousin is the exact reason I love these reactions. Well done!
That guitar is The Red Special, hand-built with his father when Brian May was a teenager... it is completely unique, although Brian now has his own line of guitars built as copies and for sale at fairly reasonable prices as guitars go.
The Red Special has its own Wikipedia entry, and Brian also wrote a a book about how he and his father built it (with schematics)...

RIP Freddie darling. Love you still and always will. Queen best band in history. 1.8 billion saw this concert and about 78K people in Wembley Stadium.
Princess Diana was at this concert.
They performed in Wembley before 70k BUT it was streamed around the world and at least ONE BILLION PEOPLE saw it live on tv. An amazing accomplishment for the time.
It never grows old. I've seen this many times, dozens x dozens, and enjoyed it each time as if it was new.❤❤❤❤
All of the songs were shortened this was a fund raising concert they only had 20 min per band. This consider the best Rock Performance ever.
Great parenting. Always require them to know the best music. Love it. Do this with my kids at least once a week. Queen, Rolling Stones, simon, and of course the Blues. I grew up in the delta. Birthplace of the Blues. Love it. They will get it later.
its weird. ive watched this performance alot but there is just something about seeing others watching it for the first time that brings a whole new level of love and excitement.
Yes he passed Nov. 1991 at 45 yrs. young. He'd be 75 or 76 if he lived. Please check what Live Aid represented. Popular Groups of performers joined in. A fight to survive starvation in Ethiopia. Many of us watched in our living rooms globally. Queen stole the show!! Today the crowd would txt or hold their phones and not be in the Moment! BTW your relative in the backseat couldn't stop from moving to radio ga-ga. Thank you for passing on the legendary Queen. 72,000 crowd. crazy 🤪 You heard this from a young 63 yr. old. LEGEND LIVES!!!
I was born in 1964, the year The Beatles ruled the world. I grew up with the first albums of Queen. Freddie Mercury was the best performer, but also the best songwriter that has ever lived. His Bohemian Rhapsody is probably the best song ever written!
Thank you for one of the best reaction videos to the best ever performance.
I remember watching this on tv when I was like 10. And wishing Prince could have been there. It was logistically impossible because the Purple Rain tour was going and that was like 85 shows. Besides if he couldn't kill it he wasn't gonna do it.
Good gracious the young man in the back went from inanimate to whiplash with We Will Rock You. 😂😂🤣🤣🤗
Your young cuz in the backseat is most definitely still learning the way of the world.
This video was pure fire. Huge thanks for the full 4K version.
So proud of you young man...
You Sooooooo GET IT to be so young.
Well Done Young Brotha 🙏
I love your joy in this reaction 🔥 i love Freddie Mercury and Queen since i was a little girl 🐾💖
Hope your cousin had a good time. Was nice having him watch queen with us all🎧🎧
Queen has 3 of the best selling albums in the top 10 of all time sold in England (more than the Beattles and The Rollingstones. As for large crowds for artists I would say MJ, Beatles, and Prince during the Purple Rain tour.
It was crazy crowds but it was a charity event with Elvis Costello, Sade, u2, David Bowie, the WHO, Elton John, PAUL MCCARTNEY and so much other people. But yeah
Behind the scenes, the producers were asking themselves, "What are they doing?"
They're stealing the show.
They got the most prime time slot for the British side of this international performance. They also got a few minutes longer than anyone else.
AND
Freddie and Brian came out one more time and did two more songs. No other act got that. Reactors I see don't react to that "encore".
On a side note. They are the highest educated rock band of all time. Three have at least a Bachelors, and Brian has a Masters in Aerospace. Yes, he is a rocket scientist. When you watch the many behind the scenes videos where they explain recording some of the classics with only the equipment and technology that existed at the time. Genious.
All four completed their chosen higher education plans. Brian a Masters then returned for his PhD in 2007...believe Deaky has Engineering Masters, Roger a Bachelors in Biology, Freddie an Art Diploma. They didn't use excess time . They were right on time. Freddie picked the time slot realising it best for world wide viewing. Freddie and Brian did only ONE extra song....there was a planned 2 song encore - Freddie and Brian with "Is This The World We Created". and Paul McCartney. the other. (Don't remember which Beatle song but the sound system malfunctioned on him . . . . however the entire 72,000+ joined in and it was wonderful.) I think I'm right on all this...sorry if not.
@@marvalstith2749 Thank you, I am trying to do so much today that I just put what I knew, thank you for getting it completely correct.
@@richgoebel882 Thanks Sir - BUT you've encouraged me . . . . lol. adding Roger says the plan by his parents was he would be a Dentist - not his wish tho'. . . changed his program to biology. I applaud him for getting 'that degree' tho'. Those Queen boys --- very good guys !!!
Excellent keep the queen songs coming 😀
You should react to the Live Wembley concert 1986. It's a lot longer than this, and shows a lot of crowd participation, along with some great performances of their great songs. If not, you can react to the songs from this concert individually. And some other songs, Dont stop me now, white queen, Who wants to live forever", "we will rock you" We are the champions" live they usually played the together.
Thx for a Nice, funky video... and by The Way, Freddie was having a sore throat, and made a killer performance... greetings from Denmark (Europe)
This reaction video is hilarious...you two could not be more opposite in your physical reactions to this. 😂😂😂
You need to teach that young man what REAL music is all about. All he knows is what's generated by a computer, auto correct, auto tune, etc.
Back when: no flames shooting up, no guitar smashing to hype the audience! Back when there weren’t even screens on the side so people in the back could see him! If you were half way back Freddie was an ant on stage! BEST PERFORMING ARTIST OF ALL TIME. They didn’t need all of the stuff musicians need now to command a stage or entertain the audience! Just a band and GREAT music! Thats perfection!
There were 72,000 people there at Wembley. But this was shown all over the world, up to one million or more.
Queen - best band ever ! ❤️ love your reactions! Queen has a lot of amazing songs you should react to !
This crowd was 72,000 but the entire world watched this live...they did concerts in 86' that had 220,000 people!! No rap group has never had that many young man in the back seat, nor have they ever had such great control of their audience like Freddie Mercury did!!!
At a normal concert bohemian rhapsody would be performed in its entirety, however at LiveAid artists were only given 18 minutes roughly to perform a set and they were told by bob geldof to make it popular songs and since rhapsody is a 6 minute song that would have eaten up too much time of there set. Check out one of their live renditions of that song to see how they do it .
❤️❤️❤️ Queen forever
Please keep up the brilliant work with your videos :)
Good reaction guys is really music queen is legend
I love your enthusiasm about Queen. It always great to see young people like you discover and get enthusiastic about our favourites and great music. I know James Hatfield is no Freddie Mercury, but if you want to see a huge crowd and a great life performance, try Metallica life in Moscow 1991. Enter Sandman shows the crowd best, but for good songs Harvester Of Sorrow and Creeping Death.
Live Aid 1985 They only did a 20 minute set.
Wembley Stadium in London, UK, attended by about 72,000 people, and John F. Kennedy Stadium in Philadelphia, the US, attended by exactly 89,484 people.
Location(s): Wembley Stadium in London, Eng...
Attendance: 72,000 (London); 89,484 (Philade...
Simply amazing so cool the younger generations see so much GREAT MUSIC so many dont know when they watch sports some of the cult classics came from those bands
It’s so obvious how well you know this performance now! It’s like you were there! 😆
When When the guitarist Brian may was young he desperately wanted guitar and couldn't afford it either. He and his Dad designed This 1 of a kind masterpiece, known as "The Red Special."
PS There is some great videos Of Brian explaining exactly how this guitar was different from others.. And how it had both groundbreaking technology never used before, and that bar you see is a kickstand from a bicycle. And yes he is still playing it to this day. Catch some current queen Videos. Adam Lambert is no Freddie, but he is the 1st to say that! But he does a fine job and it's great to see the band still on the road!
He's right . . . re Queen you can expect the unexpected especially their fantastic music, performance talent and energy. Freddie Mercury the number one frontman. Nice experience watching that time with your young cousin. Fun actually.
Talk about a crowd! Not only was that stadium filled with something like 79,000. All around the world people watched. It was Live Aide. It was a benefit concert for Africa!!! Elton John played after him and said something like, you son of a bitch how am I suppose to follow that🤣
Freddie performed in South America to over 300,000 people and they sang to him singing in English .. no one compares to Queen
you could review the Freddie Mercury Tribute Concert from Wembley. All the top bands of the era took part and it was wonderful to seuch love expressed for him. I truely believe he spent his life looking for love. Brian Mays guitar was made by him and his dad. Its called his red special and he is still playing it. He customised it and its a unique sound. He made it out of a victorian fireplace and some old wood. He is the best guitarist in the world currently. Live aid was a charity show that involved all the top groups of the era raising money for the people of ethiopia who were in a dire famine.
If you want to see something truly amazing....same stadium, seven years later, The Freddie Mercury Tribute Concert. George Michael, with the remaining members of Queen, performing "Somebody To Love". You will love it!!
Brian plays 3 different guitars during crazy little thing.
Acoustic, a telecaster & the red special.
Awesome 👍👏 Freddie
The guitar is called the red special it was made by Brian’s father out of an old fireplace.
I like your reaction.great!
There were over 72,000 people at Wembley Stadium for this. Not to mention the millions that watched is live on TV worldwide.
1.9 billion tv viewers ! 72,000 Wembley ticket holders and 90,000 Philadelphia ticket holders
Dude you’re fucking awesome, love your passion and energy
