Answer: The answer is that during Live Aid, the soundboard engineers had a set volume to work to. The story goes that the soundboard engineer for LA also worked for Queen and set the volume louder for their set only, to make sure they came across louder and therefore better for the audience. That's one of the reasons that Queen's set is regarded as the best on the day.
