Ang buong crown lighting rig ay hindi magkasya sa venue, kaya ang ilalim lang ng korona ang ginamit sa palabas na ito (at gayundin sa sumunod na gabi sa Hamburg).

Bago ang medley, sabi ni Freddie, "We have a lot of music for you tonight. That's why we don't have a support. I just wish there were a bit more of you."

Sa panahon ng "Take me with you and love me forever" linya sa The Millionaire Waltz, sigaw ng isang solong tao sa audience "forever" sa tamang sandali, kung saan tumugon si Freddie, "That's nice!"

Tumugon si Freddie sa maindayog na pagpalakpak ng kamay ng manonood pagkatapos ng medley. "You're the only audience that does that... did you know that?... in the world. I mean, if you all clap together, I'll have you sing together too, right? Let's what you can do in this next song. We ended up with a song called You're My Best Friend. For those of you who didn't know, it was written by John Deacon, and we'd like to do another song written by John. This is our latest single release. This is called Spread Your Wings." Ang sumusunod ay marahil ang pinakamahusay na live na bersyon ng kanta ni Freddie, na inihatid nang may kumpletong pananalig. Ang kanyang boses ay nasa hindi kapani-paniwalang hugis ngayong gabi.

Muli siyang tumugon sa pagpalakpak ng kamay. "Do you do this for everybody? Do you do this for Led Zeppelin?" (Wala pa sila sa Denmark mula noong 1973, ngunit babalik sila noong 1979 sa ilang libong masayang tagahanga para sa mga warm-up date para sa malalaking palabas sa Knebworth). Ang isang mahusay na bersyon ng It's Late ay sumusunod, na may perpektong naisagawa na vocal harmonies na ginagawa itong isa sa mga pinakamahusay na bersyon kailanman.

Roger drums up ng isang bagyo sa Now I'm Here, lalo na sa unang taludtod.

Brian, bago ang Love Of My Life: "This is a song for Sheer Heart Attack which Freddie wrote, and it was written for piano and voice but we're gonna do it with guitar and voice tonight, so we'll see how it goes." Nakalimutan ni Brian kung aling album ito, at tila naging patuloy na biro sa pagitan nila ni Freddie sa buong tour.

Ang paggamit ni Brian ng kanyang echoplex delay unit sa huling minuto ng White Man ay napakahusay.
