To finish off their biggest North American tour ever, the band have booked three nights at the prestigious Madison Square Garden for the only time in their original line-up. They were all sold out which must have felt simply incredible, considering they had played their first concert at the venue just about three years prior to this important moment in their history. Roger even has recalled this run of shows to be one of proudest moments of his life and it's easy to understand. The band are having an absolute blast tonight and not only perform their set with fire but also joke around like Freddie changing his usual adlib during "I'm in Love with My Car"'s chorus to "Yes, his rolls royce!" after Roger has confessed to love his ride. Reportedly, Bob Marley attended this show (or one of the following two nights) on his way to receive treatment in Germany. John Deacon, who is a massive fan of reggae and Bob Marley at the time cranked his bass up in pride.
