Queen are said to have been live monsters, so please choose your favourite live release by them. My vote goes to Live At The Bowl (though I've never heard Rock Montreal yet so that may change).

Admins, feel free to move this to the Proto-Prog And Prog Related section where it really belongs (why aren't we allowed to create polls in there BTW?).

Don't remember much about Killers, Live Magic, I would like it much, but all this song shortened, just something...why this?, so Live at Wembley is the best, in addition has songs from old and new. The other two, I never listened.

Voted for 'Live Killers'. Great setlist and some excellent performances (especially 'Brighton Rock', it's just incredibly good here).

'Live Magic' was a mistake. 'Live At Wembley Stadium' ain't bad, but Freddie Mercury sounds a bit weak here. Actually two shows at Wembley were played, but until 2011 only the second concert was available. In 2011 the first day show was released in a double DVD set, and I can say that it sounds much better than the widely known second day performance. I wonder why they initially chosen to release the weaker sounding show?

'Queen On Fire - Live At The Bowl' contains the best Somebody to Love version you can imagine. A great show and much more interesting than Wembley one.

'Rock Montreal' suffers from a weaker setlist (or maybe that's just because I find 'The Game' the weakest thing Queen did), and it loses any competition with all of the above (except for 'Live Magic').
This night wounds time.
