VH1.com reports that on this day in history and music, September 28, 2000,

''The Sadler's Wells Theatre in London witnesses the premiere of Ballet for Life, a dance in tribute to Queen's Freddie Mercury. ''I think it's a terrific piece of work - very moving, very striking, and a very stirring night,'' said an overcome Roger Taylor, although he admitted that at first the idea seemed to him ''very bizarre.'' One critic describes the show as ''gibberish.''
