They were freaks and they didn't care.
Jake was wearing high-waisted pants with suspenders and no shirt.  He had sewn the pants himself, altering a pattern from the 1930's. Jessica was wearing harlequin tights and white body suit, both of which she had special ordered through a dance magazine.  Her ankles strained to lift her platform shoes with every step - they were three inches of dense, unforgiving plastic.
Their sole mission that night was for the both of them to get backstage and bang the best singer in the universe.
Okay, the music was part of it too.  
But the singer was, like, God.  And who wouldn't want to get God in bed?  

The crowd was massive, but Jake and Jessica were prepared for anything.
They got to their seats without having to stab anyone or throw pepper in their eyes.  
Jake reached into his pants and pulled out the Super 8 video camera they had smuggled in.  While Jessica loaded the film, Jake refastened velcro panels on his pants.  His seemingly large pants were transformed into brutally tight leggings .

It was 9:30pm.  The Blasters finally got off the stage.  Everyone was screaming, shrieking, whistling or clapping.  
Then he came onto stage.
Jake and Jessica forgot about the sex.  They forgot about their plan.  The camera was abandoned on Jessie's seat.
The entire stadium became raw, unadulterated noise as Freddie Mercury took the stage.
It was in San Diego, by the way.
Back before internet shopping, people used to have to use magazines or specialty shops to get unusual things.  Gosh, tough life...
