It’s the fortieth anniversary of Live Aid this month and Roger Taylor and Brian May have been recalling Queen’s show-stealing set and have revealed that the band originally had serious doubts about doing the gig at all.
“We thought it was going to be a disaster.” May has told Radio Times. “Freddie, in particular, said, ‘I haven’t got the right feeling for this.’ He wasn’t the leader of the band, but if he dug his heels in there was no dragging him, so we parked it.”
