"It's not the Queen touring rig that you'll see - that wouldn't fit in this hall, which will hold about 2,300 tomorrow night - it's a rig specially designed for the occasion, which will look about as far away from an MTV or EMA set as could be imagined. We're using a lot of state of the art technology - including a new kind of metallic gauze-type screen - but the business end of the light show is all retro - using incandescent lamps - par cans - and a completely 'analogue' themed set - Old School with New School capabilities ! So the heat will be real - there is nothing quite like hot tungsten ! It goes well with the vacuum tube technology of our amps."

This is what Dr. Brian May said in his blog about the "rig" for the stage, including the screen you see behind Roger's drum set:"It's not the Queen touring rig that you'll see - that wouldn't fit in this hall, which will hold about 2,300 tomorrow night - it's a rig specially designed for the occasion, which will look about as far away from an MTV or EMA set as could be imagined.
