Freddie Mercury Stops Concert to Stop Fight in Audience (Queen Live at Slane Castle)

An estimated 80,000 fans paid £15 to see the band. Gardaí reported that there was some trouble when part of a wooden barrier at the side of the stage was torn down and security men turned water hoses on a small group of people who were attempting to get backstage. Around seventy people were arrested for minor offences. A total of six hundred security guards and a thousand Gardaí were on duty at the concert to quell the trouble.
