“Every band should study Queen at Live Aid. If you really feel like that barrier is gone, you become Freddie Mercury. I consider him the greatest frontman of all time. Like, it's funny? You'd imagine that Freddie was more than human, but... You know how he controlled Wembley Stadium at Live Aid in 1985? He stood up there and did his vocal warm ups with the audience. Something that intimate, where they realize, 'Oh yeah, he's just a f***ing dude.'” IfsKnowsFeelsShouldHumansRealizingAudienceKnow HowGoneStudyImagineBandYeahWarmAidsAll TimeQueensIntimateBarriersControlledImagine ThatVocalStadiumsStood UpMercury Author:Dave Grohl
