Freddie: One Night With Freddie (Outbreak Productions)
By Chris Lambert | Published on Tuesday 20 August 2019
The full light show, video screens and industrial fans showed that Queen tribute band Majesty meant business, but led to a twenty minute delay when a fuse blew half way through the first song. On their return they launched into an acceptable reproduction of Queen’s back catalogue, with Seth Daniels (as Freddie Mercury) disappearing every other song to change into one of Mercury’s iconic costumes. Majesty have been doing this for ten years and it shows – the most notable part was a shot for shot reproduction of the video that Queen used to play instead of playing ‘Bohemian Rhapsody’s middle section live. Solid musicianship and a full-on show meant that they really delivered.
The Old Dr Bells Baths, run ended.
