The Rock in Wroclaw Festival is Queen's first-ever concert in Poland.

As part of pre-event publicity, just a few days earlier (July 4), Queen held a press conference at Wrocław airport which included Adam for the first time.

The band including Adam is even more relaxed and tight than the previous two concerts. For "Dragon Attack", Adam dons an outrageous red jacket made by The Blonds (see here or here for closeup footage).[1] He also improvises on some new high notes for the song.

Notes

  1. It appears that Adam first saw the jacket at The Blonds' Fall 2012 presentation during Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week on Feb 15.
  2. Taper: W.
    Lineage: Church Audio STC - 11 > Sony MZ-R70 > rec. with Audactiy 16 Bit/44 > WAV > FLAC Level 8 (TLH)
  3. Terra: I applied some treble & bass EQ to make sound brighter and less distant + a bit of channel mixing to reduce audio channel imbalance
