Wow! It looked so cool!
I am soooo jealous!
What songs did they do?
btw, am quite interested in this clip of Love Of My Life you said you had, are you going to put it on your space on the other site?

Oh, jeeez, I can't remember... it's all a blur...
They started with Tie Your Mother Down. They did Love of My Life, obviously Er... Days of Our Lives, BoRhap, Show Must Go On, Kind of Magic, Champions, We Will Rock You, Last Horizon, Brighton Rock Solo , and a few more... I can't think, lol, still on the high! In terms of Paul Rogers hits they did All Right Now, Little Bit of Love, Can't Get Enough and Feel Like Making Love. A couple more of those I think, too. Don't know much Free or Bad Company, but the concert hasn't exactly put me off finding out more
I don't think I can put videos up on that site... I could email it to you, I suppose, bit it is about 5MB in size... Other methods are FTing it on messenger, or something. I dunno. How do you like yours?

think the file might be a bit big for email. Never mind.
Its a pity you can't twist the h2g2 editors arms to put it on the club page, suppose the issue is copyright though isn't it?
What a pain in the ase.
sounds like the set was absolutely great though.
Surprised they didn't do one Vision or Hammer to Fall, or did they? Would've thought those would've been right up Rodgers' street.
If you're interested in getting a good Free overview, the best of album is great. I've been delving into their early stuff recently, off the debut album (on vinyl!) Its fantastic.
Can't recommend any bad co: albums offhand, cos need to investigate that one myself, but I'm sure theres people around who can help. Ask h2g2.

Yeah, copyright would be a little bit of an issue, I'm sure... it usually is.
The set WAS great, and my list wasn't exhaustive- they /did/ do Hammer to Fall, but not One Vision. The version of Hammer To Fall was a little different... I didn't recognise it until Brian started singing the lyrics- first verse and chorus were done by Brian on his own, with his guitar on a clean setting. Sounded like a lullaby. Then he switched the gain on and rocked it up with the rest of them joining in for the remainder of the track. Very good .
They did I Want To Break Free as well, I don't think I mentioned that before.
I've got (a copy of) The Free Story on CD. I like that very much. I want to find something with Bad Company's 'Feel Like Making Love' on it because, well, I do And it's a good track
I'm sure there's a Best Of somewhere.

Yeah. Will have to find it. I think I've only got a couple of Bad co: tracks on conpilations somewhere.
Isn't 'I'm a mover' on the Free story?
I love that song!
