Highlights
The first of three Queen + Adam Lambert's London concerts. A film crew is reportedly on set to film this concert for an upcoming DVD, and will continue to do so for the remaining two concerts.
Besides people from the press, the audience includes a number of celebrities, including Bob Geldof KBE and Black Sabbath's Tony Iommi.
Compared to the Eastern European gigs, the band has grown even more tighter, with Adam much more comfortable in his role as Queen's frontman.

Terra: The recording was made from the back of the stalls so it sounds quite distant and muddy. For crispness of audio some of the available YouTube files are better. - ↑ Lineage: Original CD-R > EAC > WAV > jetAudio > FLAC
