What were really Freddie mercury's aids symptoms?
I'm sorry about my last answer for this question. I was partly right, and partly wrong: Right: Freddie did have growing weakness of the body, which means by 1990 he could barely stand, and by 1991- by his last few days on Earth- he became bedridden. He also had growing loss of sight (Which is normal before dying). Exhaustion must've also accompanied him, too. Maybe he had symptoms of a cold (Well, I only say this because I saw a YouTube video of the making of "I'm Going Slightly Mad." He sneezed at 4:09 (four minutes, nine seconds). Look for it, I guess.) Also, in his last few days, he could only have fruit and fruit juices. He was agitated, too. Wrong: Okay, he did have "mild fits", but they weren't coughing fits; they were severe anxiety attacks. I read an exert on Jim Hutton's "Mercury & Me." Someone named Joe- a friend of Freddie's- had to pin him down on his bed whenever this happened. Well, I'm Lauren, and I was wrong about his symptoms before. Have a nice day.
What did Freddie Mercury die of and was he ill when Queen did the Magic Tour in 1986?
He died of bronchopneumonia brought on by AIDS. That was the official cause of death stated on his death certificate. Freddie was indeed ill during the Magic Tour. That's why he stated that The Magic Tour would be his final curtain call. He knew there would be a falling off of his energy and didn't want his fans to remember him as anything other than the dynamic performer that he was, and that was documented in the DVD Queen: Live From Wembley 1986.

Adam Lambert will be a good replacement for Freddie Mercury?
Adam Lambert is not a replacement for Freddie Mercury, nor can he be compared to Freddie Mercury. This was merely an unjustified claim made by the media.
Why did Freddie Mercury always have so many drinks on his piano?
You can get very sweaty and hot running around a stage all night so you need lots of water and drinks. Also those drinks are also for John Deacon and Brian May.
Where is Freddie mercurys yellow jacket?
For some reason I often wonder the same thing and i've come up with 2 possibilities.
1. Mary Austen probably has it. Mary was his best friend and confidant for much
of his life. I am very sure that she has most of his possessions as such.
2. At the height of Queens fame they had a full time wardrobe person who made that jacket for him from scratch. Perhaps after his death (and without hind sight) they gave it back to her as a keepsake.
Only other option would be his mother. For some reason I just dont think she has it. I think this one went to a close friend. Its a highly desirable item and anyone who owns it is subjecting themselves to a scam artist if they let out the fact that they have it.
According to Peter Phoebe Freestone's blog: "Jim Hutton had it for a number of years and then he put it into an auction where it was sold to a fan. It has been seen a few times at various displays when the fan has lent it out for others to see it up close".
The armband Freddie wears is a 3/4 inch wide black latigo leather band with 1/2 inch pyramid studs and 5/8 inch snaps. Items like this are typically sold at stores like Hot Topic. Or you can make them by buying the leather from a craft store and cutting it to size. The snaps can also be purchased at a craft store like Michaels or JoAnn Fabrics. You will need a leather hold punch to apply them along witha hammer. The studs can be purchased at specialty shops online.
