An early tour itinerary listed the intention for this night's show to be played in Syracuse. In 1982, Emotions For Motions was a huge hit album for Billy Squier in the US, while Queen's Hot Space was only moderately successful. As a result, the radio stations and the Cleveland "Plain Dealer" newspaper hyped up Squier before this Saturday night show, not Queen. However, the Monday papers (including the Elyria Chronicle) raved about Queen while barely mentioning Squier. The review reveals that Somebody To Love was played at this show, which wasn't heard every night. Photo by Patti Horetski. |
