Freddie, after the medley of old songs: "It's like a Turkish sauna up here. I don't know what it's like down there." Before he showers the audience with water, he says, "If anybody's feeling mild, here it goes." Brian also references the temperature in the building before the acoustic set: "You seem to be the hottest people we've seen this summer so far. You feel hot?"

Brian, after Is This The World We Created: "Anybody remember A Night At The Opera? There's a song on one of those albums which is done with the full Queen orchestral treatment, and we decided it would be nice to just go out and do it very simply which is the guitar and voice. So this is the way it turned out." He begins to play Love Of My Life, instantly familiar to anyone who heard the version on Live Killers.

Freddie: "Ok, this is another heavy track. This is from the album called The Works. You know that? It's a Brian May tune called Hammer To Fall."
