In front of us, on the huge stage, a huge curtain stamped the famous band logo sways to the sound of mystical intro that continues to drag on, trying perhaps to hypnotize us early. 8:05 p.m., still no Queen, the public is impatient, hitting the feet and hands to attract the band on stage. And finally, the lights go out slowly while violent percussion inflame the public, the displays light and a video is started; we see Brian May, Roger Taylor and Adam Lambert forward facing camera backstage.
