I did some crowd estimating based on the scaled field size from google earth, taking into account stage and sound booth, etc. some assumptions on how full the field appears to be etc. I am guessing 20-25thousand. Call it the SWAG method, but what the heck. Will be interesting to see what the venue releases or if they do.
Edit: Ah, Q3 seems we are thinking in the same range

Help me I cannot stop listening to IWBTLY. In this video you can see that in certain part Adam's actually closed his eyes while singing. Maybe he's trying not to miss all the words  and Brian looked a bit tensed. LOL.. Maybe because that's the first time they actually did in on tour (per Brian's tweet in the earlier page in this thread). But at the end.. before Adam shout "We did it", you can see Spike's jumping up with his hands up in the air and down and then Brian's did the same thing without the jump.. LOL.. They're so excited they did it without major mishap! 
www.youtube.com/watch?v=l9wrBV4jR10&feature=player_embedded ooooh, thanks for catching that, adamme!! I watched this vid twice and never saw Spike with his hands in the air getting so excited!! awwwwww.... |

I'm finding myself quite overwhelmed with QAL's IWBTLY. It's really something special. |

I was going to jump in and say exactly what you said!  Wanted to add that according to the Japanese wikipedia page for this song, the use of this song in the very popular TV drama Pride in 2004, lead to a resurgence of popularity for Queen music and resulted in a Japan only best of album (Jewels). The song's recognition and popularity amongst the Japanese (not just fans, general population) rivals "We Are The Champions" and "We Will Rock You". I am so so so happy that they played this! (though sad I didn't get to hear it live in person) so it is a  for me. Thank you, seoulmate! (^-^)/~ Hi Usagi chan! I know... I'm in happy tears, too. I can only find this "sound only" YT video of an acoustic "I Was Born to Love You" Brian and Roger did years ago. |

went hunting the sold out tweet was for SummerSonic on the 16th Found this: "WOOOT! Summer Sonic is sold out... i.imgur.com/NBT7WGF.png"  But I am not clear which show this really is....doing more research BRB Queen in Osaka on the 16th and Tokyo on the 17th using this site: ticket.rakuten.co.jp/features/summersonic/en/index.html not finding any tickets for either night at either location, so MAYBE these the two Japan shows are indeed sold out. |
