I’m trying to find that info for you. But in the meantime I saw this about that concert. It was the last time Freddy performed live with the band. It was in 1986. Here’s what was said about that show…
The show sold out within two hours and over 120,000 fans packed the park for what was Queen’s final live performance with Mercury.
This from Queen’s wikipedia page…
In October 2011, it was announced that Queen will be recording a new album featuring lost demos of Mercury on vocals.[185] Brian May confirmed that he and Taylor are working their way through the band’s old material to compile a selection of unreleased songs for the forthcoming album.[185] May also revealed that a series of duets that Mercury recorded with Michael Jackson are to be released in 2012.[186]
In February 2012, it was announced that Queen will be headlining Sonisphere at Knebworth on 7th July with Adam Lambert.[187]
No wonder he was all smiles lately. Not too shabby for a dorky theater kid.
Great photo of Sonisphere…

From the Sonisphere website:
The first thing I noticed is that Adam is referred to as a singer-songwriter. Love it! And there is no mention of Idol.
Guys, Its getting ugly at MJs Nele put in her dig and I walked outside, so I wouldnt say something I shouldnt have. Hello, Kris played at a 100 person bar thingy, and Nele thinks thats the best thing in the world. But Adam playing at this Queen thing, no big deal according to her. Well people replying to her are gonna get deleted or banned, well I am going back, its gonna get good, lol
No kidding. Good for him! I’ll bet he’s black and blue from pinching himself. It’s no dream Adam! It just feels like it.
I’m seriously hoping for a DVD of this. At the very least, a CD!!
Here is a video of Robbie William at Knebworth. Gives you an idea what Adam will be doing. Amazing…

OMG! I just bought a ticket to the festival for Saturday July 7th, I’m freaking going to England, to see Queen and Adam Lambert! Wooooooooo Wooooooooo Woooooooooo
Watching that video and picturing Adam on that stage just gave me the biggest chills.

This is the set list they used in 2008. I would imagine the one from 1986 would look pretty much like this. I will still keep looking though…

I can book a hotel on credit right now, but I’m gonna have to get a part time job for the plane ticket, about $1300.00 geez, I better get those want adds out asap. I cant believe I’m doing this, I think I’ll book a show to while I’m there. Anyone have any suggestions? Who else is going? Ya’ll don’t know me much as I usually just lurk, but I just couldn’t help myself, this is awesome, Just awesome times a 100!!!

Thank You dcglam and Miss Chaos!

This is the closest I could come. This is the Queen set list from July 12, 1986. It was the Magic Tour and that’s how it was billed for Sonisphere. So this should be what they sang on that fateful night.

I am so happy for you!! Glad you came out of lurking to let us know your plans. Please keep us updated as you move towards the concert. Also would you be willing to do a recap once you are back stateside?
I almost want to buy a ticket “just in case” I can go.
Happy Birthday Cher!
Maybe your DH will pay for a ticket for a July trip to London!

rainbowgal4, I found the actual concert song list and posted it a few posts back along with the concert video from youtube. The thread is moving fast so it’s not easy to keep up here sometimes! Here it is again…for those who missed it earlier.

It’s slightly different that the one that you posted.
How funny!!

@adamlambert You have to wear this at Sonisphere? Do you think Elton John has custody of it? Congrats!

Hello Luval!
Northern Spirit and I just bought a Rock Royalty pass for the entire weekend. We’re booked for the Premier Inn. It looks like a good deal because it includes 3 night’s accomodation for two, plus two full weekend festival passes and shuttle bus to and from. We figure, after exchange rate, its approximately $800 each which is pretty good.
What I’m saying is: if you go for it, we might be able to rustle up another Toronto person for you to share with. We have a few people we can’t get hold of (it’s family day here) and we will probably have an odd number.
I love Adam so much I’m going – come hell or high water.
Thanks a million … rainbowgal.
Great job. Fast and furious !!!
I have a couple DVDs of Queen. So I’ll watch them repeatedly now.
cher … What a great birthday present for you!!!
Congrats WW. Photos and recaps … later … right?

I will take me forever to clean up my bookmarks. Live in the Adam fast lane!!
Thanks for the repost. I did miss it and yes things move so damn fast. I have more open windows on my desktop.

What an exciting day! I go take a drive for 4 hours (to get back home) and when I arrive, I find I’m going with TLKC to Sonisphere! I’m so excited. I want to reach out into cyberspace and give TLKC the biggest hug ever!!! This is going to be a concert to remember. OMG Queen + Adam!! Looking forward to seeing some of you there. Luval….you must come.
TLKC, where did you find the info to order that package???
HK fan, are you a member of the ALFC, here’s the link to the tickets…presale. It’s the Rock Royalty package that TKLC got.
Follow link to presale tickets http://adamlambertfans.com/news/63291
Thanks everyone for your well wishes, I’m not much of a camera person, so I dont know about photos, maybe, video definitly not, recap when I get home, absolutely!
HK fan – buy the package for Premier Hotel. Includes 3 nights accomodations for two PLUS two passes for the entire weekend PLUS loot bag, PLUS access to backstage Rock Royalty garden with food and cash bar and LATE NIGHT DISCO and more surprises. It works out to approx. $1600 Cdn. for two people. Not bad at all. Plus a chance to fraternize the way we did on the patio in Ste-Agathe. We don’t want to see a lot of the other acts anyway. LOL
Plus I think the LATE NIGHT DISCO is tailored to us, cause they are not a disco crowd.
It’s on the front page of ALFC – we and the Queen fans have a three day head start. Make the most of it.

another article about Sonisphere and Adam….

this according to someone from England on what the concert might look like…
It won’t be 24 songs. It’s a headline act of a festival… They’ll be on for an hour maybe so 8 to 10 songs I’d say?
rainbowgal4, sounds about right, 8 to 10 songs. Still, the chance to see the two of them together…priceless.
The Olympics would have been one song only so this is awesome. For me, it’s a lifetime thing. I am 60 this year. A housemate turned 60 last year and she went to the Amazon. I told her I was going to the drugstore. Now I’m going to the UK. I will see all of my family over there, visit Tate Modern, which I’ve been dying to see, etc. And I will see Adam and Queen.

I think there’s an understanding of life once we hit sixty and it’s time to do whatever we want. I know I’ve lived that way most my life but now there’s a different passion to it. Have a grand time!! I will be interested in your recap.
