It was a bit hard to tell, cos some of the songs I didn't know the name of and it was non-stop right from the get go but Wiki says this was the setlist:

"Procession"
"Now I'm Here"
"Stone Cold Crazy"
"Another One Bites the Dust"
"Fat Bottomed Girls"
"In the Lap of the Gods"
"Seven Seas of Rhye"
"Killer Queen"
"Somebody to Love"
"I Want It All"
"Love of My Life"
"'39"
"These Are the Days of Our Lives"
"Bass Solo/Drum Battle"
"Under Pressure"
"Dragon Attack"
"Who Wants to Live Forever"
"Guitar Solo/Last Horizon"
"Tie Your Mother Down"
"Radio Ga Ga"
"Crazy Little Thing Called Love"
"The Show Must Go On"
"Bohemian Rhapsody"
Encore
"We Will Rock You"
"We Are the Champions"
"God Save the Queen"
I'm looking back and recognising the songs now!

What was Somebody to Love like, does Adam do it well, that's easily one of my favourite Queen tracks, love how Freddie used to sing it. Looks like you got your moneys worth, that's quite a set list. Who plays bass for them these days, now John Deacon no longer takes part?
