A Queen debĂŒtĂĄlĂĄsa / The Queen's debut đ€
Az egyĂŒttes Queen nĂ©ven, 1970. jĂșlius 18-ĂĄn lĂ©pett fel elĆször a londoni Imperial Collegeban, egy szƱk barĂĄti tĂĄrsasĂĄg elĆtt. Ezen a fellĂ©pĂ©sen szinte kizĂĄrĂłlag feldolgozĂĄsokat jĂĄtszottak Ă©s csak kĂ©t sajĂĄt szerzemĂ©ny szerepelt a repertoĂĄrban, a âStone Cold Crazyâ Ă©s a âLiarâ. A valĂłdi debĂŒtĂĄlĂĄs azonban csak jĂșlius 25-Ă©n törtĂ©nt meg, Cornwallban. A koncertet âQueen (korĂĄbban Smile)â-kĂ©nt hirdettĂ©k Ă©s a truroi PJâs Clubban kerĂŒlt megrendezĂ©sre, mely egyben Mike Grose utolsĂł szereplĂ©se is volt a Queennel, hiszen pĂĄr nap mĂșlva kilĂ©pett az egyĂŒttesbĆl.
A következĆ koncertjĂŒk augusztus 23-ra volt tervbe vĂ©ve, Ăgy az egyĂŒttesnek sĂŒrgĆsen basszusgitĂĄrost kellett kerĂtenie. Egy vĂ©letlen talĂĄlkozĂĄs rĂ©vĂ©n Barry Mitchell lett az Ășj basszusgitĂĄros, aki Ăgy emlĂ©kezett vissza a srĂĄcokra: âSzuper fazonok voltak, tĂ©nyleg jĂł arcok. Brian kifejezetten kedves ember, NagyszerƱ, gondoskodĂł tĂpus. Freddie egy kicsit rejtĂ©lyesnek tƱnt. Akkor mĂ©g nem volt olyan szĂnpompĂĄs, mint amilyennĂ© kĂ©sĆbb vĂĄlt, olyan magabiztos sem, ami azt illeti, pont az ellenkezĆje rĂtt le rĂłla, Ă©n kifejezetten fĂ©lĂ©nknek lĂĄttam. Igen, hatĂĄrozottan jĂł arcok voltak.â
Az oktĂłber 16-i koncertjĂŒk elĆtt kiderĂŒlt, hogy Freddie bĂĄlvĂĄnya, Jimi Hendrix, vĂ©lhetĆen kĂĄbĂtĂłszer-tĂșladagolĂĄsban meghalt, Ăgy a tiszteletĂŒket kifejezve, a koncerten csak Hendrix szĂĄmokat adtak elĆ. LehetsĂ©ges, hogy ez hiba volt rĂ©szĂŒkrĆl, ugyanis a következĆ fellĂ©pĂ©sĂŒk a londoni College of Estate Managementben katasztrofĂĄlisan sikerĂŒlt. Freddie egyik ismerĆse, Alain Mair is jelen volt a közönsĂ©g soraiban Ă©s Ăgy idĂ©zte fel a koncert Ă©lmĂ©nyeit: âRoger Ă©s Brian addigra mĂĄr nagyon kiforrottan jĂĄtszott, a problĂ©mĂĄt Freddie jelentette. A korai idĆkben szokĂĄsa volt kissĂ© Ă©lesen Ă©nekelni. TĂșlsĂĄgosan lelkes volt, Ă©s ettĆl kissĂ© visĂtĂłvĂĄ vĂĄlt a hangja. RĂĄadĂĄsul elĂ©g kĂnosan mozgott a szĂnpadon. HĂĄtravetette a fejĂ©t Ă©s elĆrelĂ©pett, de valahogy nem voltak szinkronban a mozdulatai.â.

The band first performed under the name Queen on July 18, 1970 at Imperial College London, in front of a close group of friends. They performed almost exclusively processing in this show, with only two of their own songs, "Stone Cold Crazy" and "Liar." The real debut, however, was July 25 in Cornwall. The concert was announced as "Queen (formerly Smile)" and took place at PJ's Club in Truro, which was Mike Grose's last appearance with Queens since he left the band a few days later.
Their next concert was scheduled for August 23, so the band had to find a bassist. By chance, Barry Mitchell became the new bass player who remembered the guys: âThey were super cool, really good faces. Brian is a very nice guy, great, caring guy. Freddie seemed a bit mysterious. At that time he was not as colorful as he had become, neither was he as confident as the other way around, he was particularly shy. Yes, they were definitely good faces.â
Before their October 16 concert, it was revealed that Freddie's idol, Jimi Hendrix, had probably died of a drug overdose, so in all due respect, only Hendrix song were performed at the next concert. It may have been a mistake on their part, as their next appearance at the College of Estate Management in London was disastrous. One of Freddie's acquaintances, Alain Mair, was in the audience and recounted the concert's experience: âBy then, Roger and Brian were playing very mature, the problem was Freddie. In the early days he used to sing a little sharply. He was too enthusiastic and made his voice a bit screaming. On top of that, he was moving quite awkwardly on the stage. He put his head back and stepped forward, but somehow his movements were out of sync."
