The Show Must Go On – Happy Birthday Freddie Mercury

Today would have marked the 69th Birthday of Farrokh Bulsara – better know to the world as Freddie Mercury.

Fortunately, living here in England, I have enjoyed watching bands in the old and new Wembley Stadium so I can only imagine what it must have been like to be there and been one of the 72,000 people who was in the palm of Freddie’s hand… actually, no I can’t.
