ORIGINAL: Red2112 @Wings7 Iam afraid not Wings7, there´s things that can´t/should not be told. As they say, well they don´t but, "what happens in Rock and Roll, stays in Rock and Roll". I´ll just let you in on one thing that happen that night... They wouldent let me and Mike in the club because Mike was wearing a sweat suit/track suit and the guy at the door had no idea who Mike was. We had to wait till my boss came down the stairs, which was 5min. later. As in most show´s (the hand-over of the olimpic flag in Barcelona, in this case), after the song/show you usualy take the artist to the best club in the city, if he/she or the band wishes to, or take them on a small tour of the city. Nobody knows where you are going and its usualy a VIP area. This is the event that took place, I was with the fountain lights and later took Mike to the club... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hkskujG0UYc It was funny because the back lights of the main building in the background are WWII search lights that have to be lit 2min. before because they light up with gun powder! It was a complicated situation to coordinate with the rest of the lights for the "grand finale" -- Interesting story, thanks for that and for the YouTube video! My original response to you was for your comment on who wrote 'Barcelona'. Your comment: "I had the pleasure of working with them, actualy neither wrote the song." Post 4943 My response: "Freddie Mercury co-wrote it with Mike Moran..." Post 4944 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barcelona_(Freddie_Mercury_and_Montserrat_Caball%C3%A9_song) I thought you had new info on who wrote the song. I still think Mike wrote the song. If your a star, you add a arrangement with a couple of notes to a song and your now co-writer! Iam not saying anything, "who knows", just saying this has been pulled off so many times in the music biz, that it´s not even funny! For the "Image" of the artist you might never know who did what!
