I attended this concert 10 years ago and still remember my impressions well. Over 200 thousands of people from whole Ukraine and even from neighbor countries went there to see this unique show. It was one of unforgettable moments when the legend Brian started to rock with "One Vision" riffs in 10 meters from me. And this part with Bijou and Freddie's voice was incredible and probably the best part of that performance. That was a real bijou, a piece of that Queen's magic that Freddie, Brian, Roger & John gave to people on a stadiums of the world at those glorious times.
