Certain songs are essential for a Queen concert, like “Another One Bites The Dust,” “Radio Ga Ga,” and “We Will Rock You.” However, with their extensive music library, the band likes to mix things up by adding less wellknown tracks and seamlessly blending them during their shows. This keeps their loyal fans engaged and excited.
Join Queen in this “Queen
The Greatest Live” episode as they perform at Milton Keynes
Bowl in Buckinghamshire on June 5th, 1982. This iconic show featured Brian May’s jaw-dropping guitar showcase, “Dragon Attack,” which quickly became a fan favorite. The song was released as the B-side of the “Another One Bites
The Dust” single and was a highlight of the 1980s album “The Game.” The song’s fiery, funky fretwork was flavored by the long nights the band spent at Munich’s downtown discotheque
Sugar Shack while recording at Musicland Studios, which is even referenced in the song’s lyrics. Despite being recorded late at night or early in the morning, and possibly under the influence, “Dragon Attack” was consistently performed between 1980 and 1985 and often jammed out by the band. During this memorable performance at Milton Keynes Bowl, “Dragon Attack” flowed into a reprise of the fan-favorite anthem “Now I’m Here” from 1974’s “Sheer Heart Attack.” Keep an eye out for the moment inQ the beginning when Brian breaks a guitar string on his Red Special but quickly switches to a spare and continues to rock the crowd.

GEMINI FESTIVAL OF GOODWILL, OF HUMANITY & WORLD INVOCATION DAY
The third Spring Festival, that of Gemini is Saturday, June 3, 2023 at the time of the full moon. Each new and full moon festival is occult in nature, hiding deep esoteric truths about the true nature and salvage of humanity.
Gemini is the sign of receiving and distributing. The Gemini Festival gathers the Light, Love and Will of God and distributes it to humanity in the form of Goodwill. This Goodwill enters the hearts and minds of humanity to harmonize world conditions. The Lord of Love (Christ, called Maitreya in the East) presides over this distribution of Love/Wisdom while preaching the last sermon of the Buddha to those assembled for the festival.
Gemini, as the third sign of the zodiac, completes the triangle of Aries (divine ideas), Taurus (will to good), Gemini (will to love) and creates a field of unification for humanity. The Gemini festival is also called World Invocation Day (the prayer The Great Invocation is the mantram of direction and healing for humanity), Festival of Humanity and Goodwill Day. This festival creates a deep aspiration within humanity towards human and spiritual harmony, unifying all peoples, all nations, all cultures, East and West. During the Gemini Festival, the Forces of Reconstruction stream into humanity, ushering in an era of pronounced creative activity and will bring about the rebuilding of the tangible world upon the new lines. This the total destruction of the old forms will necessitate.
Gemini is one of the most important of the twelve signs and its unifying influence lies behind all the
