Madeline Bell was totally fantastic! Roger Taylor was on top form, I was shocked when he started singing Under Pressure with Patti Russo. I was totally shocked when he did Tenement Funster, he introduced it by saying ‘This is a first, I’ve got my son here on drums, Rufus Taylor, Rufus Tiger Taylor. This is an ancient song, very old, some of you might be old enough to remember it’. He did all the old moves from the Electric Fire days! It was brilliant. He then did a ‘not quite so old song’ A Kind Of Magic then I almost passed out on the floor when he did Cosmos Rockin’. He introduced it by saying ‘This is a version of a roll and roll song, it was called the whole house rocking at first but that changed, from a house to a cosmos. He got the words slightly wrong ‘To the Panama (instead of Across the seven seas), mumble mumble muble (instead of ‘to the Panama’). At the end of it, he grabbed the tambourine and threw it in the air, and even managed to catch it!! Rufus was fantasic on drums and Roger kept going over to him at the end of the songs and looked like a very father! After Cosmos Rockin’, Rufus went to the drum kit at the end of the stage and Roger went to the other drum kit and they both drummed WWRY!
