Jacky Smith Admin · 18 mins The Rhapsody Approaches…July 2019 Queen + Adam Lambert to debut brand new Rhapsody touring show across North America next year with 23 giant shows from July through August 2019 Tickets on sale December 7th at LiveNation.com Los Angeles, CA (December 3, 2018) – The soaring success of Bohemian Rhapsody – the Freddie Mercury/Queen movie that is set to become the biggest grossing music biopic of all time – has proven that the public’s love for Queen remains as strong as ever. Longtime fans and recent converts will be thrilled to discover then, that Queen – original band members Brian May and Roger Taylor, teaming up once more with longtime front man Adam Lambert on lead vocals – will return to North America next year. Produced by Live Nation, the epic 23-date arena and stadium Rhapsody tour is set to run from mid-July through late August with an all new concert experience. Tickets for the Rhapsody tour go on sale to the general public starting December 7th at LiveNation.com at 10AM local time. Queen and Adam Lambert Fan Club Presales will run from 10AM local time through 10PM local time on Thursday, December 6th. QUEEN FAN CLUB MEMBERS WILL BE SENT PRE-SALE LINKS AND PASSWORD TUESDAY DECEMBER 4TH. Going under the Rhapsody header, the six-week tour will debut a brand new larger-than-life production. Stufish Entertainment Architects’ set designer Ric Lipson says: “Queen + Adam Lambert’s Rhapsody tour will, once again for them, expand the parameters of what a live music experience can be. This new show promises to be their most spectacular yet, an innovative and interactive celebration of the continued power of Queen’s music.” The tour follows an acclaimed run of 10 sold-out shows at the MGM Park Theater, Las Vegas in September 2018 and will kick off July 10th at Vancouver Rogers Arena. Stop-offs include some of the most history-packed venues in the US and Canada, including The Forum in Los Angeles (the last venue the original line-up played in North America on September 15, 1982) and New York City’s Madison Square Garden (the site of past Queen glories, including a memorable performance from Queen + Adam Lambert on July 17, 2014). It will wrap August 23rd at Spectrum Center in Charlotte, NC. Announcing their Rhapsody tour Roger Taylor said: "We are ready for America and raring to get back in the saddle.” Adam Lambert said: “We have been designing a brand new visual spectacle that will reframe these iconic songs and we are excited to unveil it!” With Brian May adding:“ This is a great opportunity. Our last tour featured our most ambitious production ever, and got us our best notices ever. So we decided to rip it apart and get even more ambitious! Watch out, America! " Since Adam Lambert first shared the stage with Queen for the 2009 American Idol final, his dynamic performances have reinvigorated the band and delighted fans worldwide. Their first full show together – starting as they meant to go on - thrilled a half-a-million-strong crowd in the Ukraine capital city of Kiev in June 2012. Since then May and Taylor’s musical fireworks have been matched by Lambert’s vocal prowess and stage presence, making for an explosive combination. Over 180 gigs later, the partnership has proven a commercial and critical triumph, playing to enraptured full houses in every corner of the world. Completing the tour line-up are long-term collaborator Spike Edney on keyboards, Neil Fairclough on bass, and Tyler Warren on percussion. Never known to rest on their laurels, Queen on this Rhapsody tour will unveil a stage show as experimental and rule-defying as the hit-packed Queen back catalogue. The band have worked with the creative partners behind the eye-popping News Of The World 2017 tour – Ric Lipson of Stufish Entertainment Architects handling set design; Rob Sinclair on lighting design; and Sam Pattinson of Treatment Studio behind the video content – to develop an unmissable show. The tour follows a hugely successful time for Queen + Adam Lambert. 2014 saw them complete their first, rapturously-received North American tour together, as well as massive festival headline slots in Asia and a sold-out arena tour of Australia and New Zealand, leading to them being crowned Band Of The Year at the 10th annual Classic Rock Roll Of Honor awards and Best Live Band Of The Year in Ultimate Classic Rock’s Reader’s Poll. And they kept up the momentum – in early 2015 they embarked upon their first full European tour together, including two nights at London’s O2 Arena and in September of that year they hit South America, with a headline appearance at Brazil’s Rock In Rio festival seeing them rock a crowd of more than 80,000 people. 2016 saw yet more enormous headline slots, with a celebratory set at the legendary Isle Of Wight Festival one of many highlights. They continued in 2017/2018 with full-blown tours of North America, Australia and New Zealand, and Europe. Their run of UK dates earlier this year sold out in less than half-an-hour, their reputation obviously preceding them. Then along came 20th Century Fox’s Bohemian Rhapsody. The movie has topped the cinema box office in more than 35 countries around the world since its late October release, drawing worldwide box office receipts in excess of $500 million. The excitement the film inspired also saw Queen propelled back on to the music charts, where they hit No. 1 on Billboard’s Artist 100 Chart, reminding fans why they loved them and dazzling the previously-uninitiated. In the US, the band scored its highest-charting album in 38 years with the Bohemian Rhapsody soundtrack (Hollywood Records), which surged from No. 25 to No. 3 on the Billboard 200 chart on November 17, reached the top of the Billboard Rock Albums chart and were Spotify’s most streamed artist in the world for the week ending November 22. Rolling Stone called the album “more than just a greatest hits”, praising it as “a fun imaginative way to relive the band’s genius.” In the same week, Queen’s Greatest Hits Vol I, II & III: The Platinum Collection rocketed from No. 194 to No. 9 on the Billboard 200 and they had a jaw-dropping 22 songs charting on the Digital Rock Tracks chart including seven of the Top 10. In the UK the release of Bohemian Rhapsody has also given a healthy boost to Queen's music on streaming services. Rhapsody remains their most popular, with 50.4 million streams, followed by Don’t Stop Me Now on 46.1 million plays. When Freddie sang The Show Must Go On all those years back, even he couldn’t have guessed that Queen music would still be storming the charts in 2018. Next summer, the stages of North America will be well and truly rocked again. You can’t help thinking Freddie would be overjoyed.

I would wait for the general sale. At least as long as ticket sales go as slowly as last time. In the UK, chances are big, that you won’t get a ticket, when you wait for the general sale. |

He sounded like a dog wanting a bone. His vocal acrobatics have become even more annyoing than they were. And his ridiculous women's voice sounded even more atrocious. He did not move one bit and looked like the twat he is. |

You said they were boring, miserable and without even listening to one of their albums. The most you ever listened and watched Sam Smith was at Rock and Rio and you had much to say about that, and nothing good, that you couldn't even hear him. No, I haven't seen them live, but I don't need to see things live to know what I like or don't like. Do you? Or do you just want a cut of Q+AL profits? Every Q+AL tour you give people crap 'asking' if people attended Q+AL shows or not. If people don't go, you think their views don't even matter. Even when people go, and something is posted that there was thing/s they didn't like, that's still not good enough for you. I dare say if I went to a Q+AL concert, that I still wouldnt like the coronet for example. Don't be a hypocrite again, sweetcaroline/CNB. You have said an awful lot about artists ( and even their fans) that you don't like even from not listening or watching much by them, but look out if someone dares say something you don't like regarding AL. |

But look out if Caroline posts, cause Icy is there to get her!!! I think you can get a good idea whether or not you would like something in a youtube, BUT it is nothing like being at a concert. AND I think with Adam's voice it is even more problematic. He is very hard for the sound guys to get the sound right (no idea what the word is, Mic up, maybe??) because of his range. Then too he sounds different on every stream depending on where the recorder sits. He also always sounds better live than recorded. I have seen him on every tour he has done, his own and QAL and he changes songs up and they song and his voice don't sound like a youtube. His real voice and his recorded voice are quite different. I haven't experience that with other singers. What you hear as a weak voice, fills the who arena and is very powerful. It is correct to say, you would probably like his vice better in a concert than recorded or on a stream. |

Concert sounds different to studio recording -- Wow, what a revelation! In fact, this is all about creating a "safe space" here for Lambert fans to gush as much as they want without allowing anyone else to have an opinion about anything. You just like to drown out any view about anything Lambert-related that isn't 100% positive. It's very odd, obsessive behaviour. |

No, some of you act as if he has this thin, weak voice and since it doesn't sound like that in the concert, you must be basing it on something else (probably delusional minds at least on Runner's part). You can say what you like about his voice as it isn't like Freddie and more hair metal than rock in the school of Paul Rogers. It doesn't need to be a safe space, grown ups can have a chat, but some of you start with the c..t word and really nasty stuff which adults don't do in a discussion. Maybe if you could talk about this reasonably it would be fine, but you guys don't. Most of it is ugly and very nasty and it isn't Adam's fans that post like that. You people are the odd possessive ones hanging on to a version of Queen that just isn't possible anymore. Most of Adam's fans have moved on and enjoy what is being offered right now by Roger and Brian and for most of the concert goers it is more than enough and winds up being a delightful experience. Nobody says you have to approve, but you don't have to be ugly either in your posts. |
Holly2003 09.12.2018 14:26 |
I have tried to talk about QAL reasonable only to be drowned out by a chorus of obsessive fans. No one is allowed to express even constructive criticism in this forum. Your post above has the usual collective nagging, insinuations, lies. You're like a Lambot, programmed to defend your guy. I don't see much evidence of any self awareness or any critical thought. It's always somebody else's fault. There are aspects of the current set up I like but you guys -- and by that I mean you and sweetcaralarm -- suck all the life out of it with your incessant nattering. |

Queen fans want a Freddie clone. That’s why a lot of them prefer the sound alike voice of Marc Martel. But Brian and Roger want the spirit of Freddie and that’s why they like Adam. I have said I like Jeff Scott Soto. If these old legends keep on going and they find another guy to replace Adam, I think I could accept it better than the stubborn people who refuse to accept Adam. I could see the young man who just won the X Factor because he has an amazing, flexible, spontaneous voice that goes to unexpected places sounding very unique. |

Nor do I need one. I'm happy with what he left us with and the fact his legacy is living on. Something that you are pretty blind about. Do you really think AL has the spirit of Freddie and that's why Brian and Roger picked AL?! Where's the proof of that? I thought you said he was picked because of his voice, man it's amazing and appalling how you change your stories to suit yourself. Hate to tell you, it's not fate or destiny that AL is the one singing Queen songs, although that's exactly what you have posted a few times. I bet you still feel it's fate and destiny. No, you couldn't even accept Lady GaGa and Nate onstage for only one song they sang with Brian and Roger. You want and need all the attention for and to AL You wouldn't be able to accept anyone else, other than AL, singing Queen songs. Don't even try to pretend otherwise. |

No, you don't understand at all.. Clearly, you haven't even tried. All the matters to you and sweetcaroline is that only praise for AL is ever allowed in relation to anything to do with AL. You both can't take the slightest criticism about the guy, then you both bleat on about haters, negative etc. How odd for you to stir the pot here and say I hate sweetcaroline the way you did recently and today for you to once again say I hate AL? Fact is, I never even said any such thing. How odd it is for you to imply that I fault someone here for what is going on in my personal life when I don't? Maybe not so odd after all, because it's your way of trying to get what you want. Well, sorry for you and sweetcaroline because it's straight out of luck getting what you both so desperately want and desperately need regarding AL or anything else on any Queen boards.

This is a THREAD FOR QUEEN and ADAM, can you not get that through your thick head and he can be mentioned here. Nobody is bigging him up. Adam fans are merely trying to have a discussion which you won't allow, since you constantly throw crap at people who post anything that might be vaguely positive. You are the epitome of damning with faint praise. Go look that one up if you don't get it. Nobody needs any praise here for Adam, YOU need constant praise for Freddie and this is not the right thread for that. You are the only one who desperately needs to hang on to the idea of Freddie, but saying something good about Adam in no way reflects on Freddie and you refuse to see that. Fans like who they like and they defend them and talk about their "idol" and this is the place to do that. This is not the place where Freddie is necessarily the focal point. What don't you get about that idea? Anyone becoming familiar with Queen since Adam is singing with them doesn't know much about Freddie, so why would they discuss him when their knowledge of Queen is QAL, which is what this thread is for. YOU need to get over bigging Freddie up and pushing his agenda and desperately fawning all over him like you do. I don't understand the fixation with him, as you didn't even grow up in the period that Queen started out.. You came to admire them late. This is really weird to me to become such an super fan. Most of the die hards saw Queen and grew up with them. Talk about an obsession of Caroline's, I don't know who you are kidding because you win that competition hands down. The whole situation and your Freddie delusion makes no sense. It sounds like anything to do with him can make or break your day and that is not healthy. It is not your job to go out and defend Freddie at all costs (like you are always accusing Caroline of). You should take the advice you give her and quit bigging Freddie up. No one ever says anything bad about him, so I don't get what your problem is. You need to wake up and get real for 2 minutes. No one should be that important in someone's life unless it is family. No one needs to criticize someone about everything they do. I am not sure that Adam ever does anything rig ht except maybe one or two songs you like, but you have the gall to say You Like the Guy! Every word that comes out of your mouth negates that statement and it is really ridiculous at this point. Nobody here needs anything except maybe you, since I have never heard anyone else say something weird like that. |

At least I can say I'm a fan of Freddie's and Queen's, damn more than I can say about you or sweetcaroline. No one is bigging AL up you say? Are you blind or just dumb? What do you make of sweetcaroline saying she thinks AL is more creative and original than Sinatra and Como? That's bigging AL up in case you can't tell. What to do you have to say about sweetcaroline linking to personal private stuff regards AL? A pic with a very young child, a link to his godson, and a link to a pic of his mother getting married? Of course, you see nothing wrong with that. But it's rich coming from you calling me obessed and that I have a Freddie delusion, oh the irony. Since you are sweetcaroline's spokesperson and defender, maybe...and you actually should ask her why she posts what she does at times.

When I do the exact same things about Freddie, what sweetcaroline does for AL, and when I post post everything I can find about Freddie, then you can say I'm obessed and have a Freddie delusion. Alas, my dear, you couldn't find it if you tried, because I haven't done it. It's so much easier for you to turn the tables on me and to try to ream me out. All you prove is that you want and need things done your way to suit you and sweetcaroline's way. Yes, I admire and respect Freddie. The man's talent and guts is still what stands out to me the most. If that's a problem for you, and it's clear it is, that's your problem. Do I like AL? Sure I do. I don't fawn or lust over everything the guy has done or is currently doing.

Singers back in the day weren't really creative and original. They stood up there and sang, usually songs other people wrote. Even if they wrote some songs, they didn't worry about costumes and lighting and themes and every other thing that goes into a show nowadays, as they didn't have to. No, I don't think they were especially creative or original because they didn't have to be. I do think Adam is very creative in all ways except song writing. That is not what he is particularly good at, so far. I like him singing Queen best. His solo music is OK and I listen to it for his voice. I think there are other types of music his voice is better suited to. His voice singing Queen's fabulous music is a marriage made in heaven for MY ears. I am not talking about anyone else. His voice gives me chills like a few opera singers I love and that is why I admire him. I also like him as a human being. He seems like a nice man who no one ever has anything but nice things to say about. That is also unusual in this day and age. I don't bring things over (just once or twice) and I don't post pics, tweets, etc. I am not that invested other than I see him once in every tour (his own and QAL). I am a fan of the voice, not a crazy follow him everywhere and on twitter,etc. I don't do that. I get pleasure out of the music he sings. I just get annoyed when I see all the bashing of him and absolutely ugly things that are said. It isn't fair and it isn't right and you are one of the big offenders. You give him zero credit. If you don't think his singing with Queen has garnered a lot of new fans in the last 6 years, you are not very bright. I think you just don't want Adam getting any credit, as usual. The biopic is wonderful for Queen and so is QAL. There is a reason each tour has gotten bigger and is usually close to sold out. No other singer could accomplish that with Queen as no one has the range to sing the entire catalog like Adam. Think what you like, but I disagree. |

Alas, my dear, you couldn't find it if you tried, because I haven't done it. It's so much easier for you to turn the tables on me and to try to ream me out. All you prove is that you want and need things done your way to suit you and sweetcaroline's way. Yes, I admire and respect Freddie. The man's talent and guts is still what stands out to me the most. If that's a problem for you, and it's clear it is, that's your problem. Do I like AL? Sure I do. I don't fawn or lust over everything the guy has done or is currently doing. You have the gall to come screeching at me on a Queen board throwing your crap because of your many issues with me, and you wouldn't be here at all if not for AL singing the Queen songs.I agree. They are behaving like extremists. |

Even if they wrote some songs, they didn't worry about costumes and lighting and themes and every other thing that goes into a show nowadays, as they didn't have to. No, I don't think they were especially creative or original because they didn't have to be. I do think Adam is very creative in all ways except song writing. That is not what he is particularly good at, so far. I like him singing Queen best. His solo music is OK and I listen to it for his voice. I think there are other types of music his voice is better suited to. His voice singing Queen's fabulous music is a marriage made in heaven for MY ears. I am not talking about anyone else. His voice gives me chills like a few opera singers I love and that is why I admire him. I also like him as a human being. He seems like a nice man who no one ever has anything but nice things to say about. That is also unusual in this day and age. I don't bring things over (just once or twice) and I don't post pics, tweets, etc. I am not that invested other than I see him once in every tour (his own and QAL). I am a fan of the voice, not a crazy follow him everywhere and on twitter,etc. I don't do that. I get pleasure out of the music he sings. I just get annoyed when I see all the bashing of him and absolutely ugly things that are said. It isn't fair and it isn't right and you are one of the big offenders. You give him zero credit. If you don't think his singing with Queen has garnered a lot of new fans in the last 6 years, you are not very bright. I think you just don't want Adam getting any credit, as usual. The biopic is wonderful for Queen and so is QAL. There is a reason each tour has gotten bigger and is usually close to sold out. No other singer could accomplish that with Queen as no one has the range to sing the entire catalog like Adam. Think what you like, but I disagree.I disagree because there were singers from back in the day who were creative and original. Chuck Berry, Little Richard and Aretha Franklin to name three examples. More recently, Jagger, Bowie and Mercury were also consideried original and creative. Many before those artists too. AL isn't original. Take his recent 'hippie' photoshoot which has him wearing clothes that were a big part of 60s and 70s fashion...nothing original there. AL's songwriting isn't his strong suit. For the past while, he's been pretty focused on covers songs, everything from Queen covers to Cher covers. I'm not just saying this as a Queen fan, but as someone who actually likes some of AL's solo music...I'd hate for the guy to be known as the guy who has sang cover songs more than his solo music. Take the most recent event, there was more cover songs he sang than his own music. His own choice to do it that way apparently. I think it's a shame he had nothing new to sing there, what a way it would be to get the gears grinding for his upcoming solo music, that's how I look at it. If that's being negative, Debbie Downer and a hater to AL in your eyes, so be it. I'm glad...and honestly relieved that you aren't the type to track and follow AL's every move, onstage and especially off stage. I have mentioned this before that I read Adamtopia every now and then, and the way AL's movements are followed, even what he likes on social media...that's a bit unsettling. Even more unsettling is when certain things are brought to Queen boards, yes the personal moments and pics that sweetcaroline is known to bring up on Queen boards. It's mind boggling to me. I swear if you could ever find me doing what sweetcaroline has done, and for years, yes call me obessed and that I have a Freddie delusion. I haven't done any of that type of thing, but it's tit for tat and you want to defend sweetcaroline no matter what she posts. Got it. She can do no wrong in your eyes, and I'm always wrong in your eyes. I haven't bashed AL lately, unless my comments about the most recent event and AL riding on coattails was bashing in your eyes. I'm not the type ( to say the least ) to think everything is sunshine and rainbows, sorry that's not me. Of course, I get called negative, a hater, that I hate AL, Debbie Downer, whatever you can think to throw around about me. But you see, that's not me either, I'm not always negative, and nor am I always postive. Things aren't so black and white. You pretty much have proved here again tonight you want me to shut up to suit and appease you. Also that you have me pegged that no matter what I post, will not be good or acceptable enough. I don't post to suit anyone. If I hate something I will say so, if I like or love something I will say that as well. I understand that you like and admire AL. Believe me or not, so do I, I just don't fawn over everything the guy says and does. It's not simply black and white. But do I hate AL? Nope. I do respect and admire Freddie, you bet I do, but I'm not a stepford when it comes to him. Freddie has left the world with such a legacy, that it's in no danger of disappearing any time soon. Its because of the biopic the music is such a big deal right now. It's not because of Lambert. I'm sorry, but not really sorry that you seeing Freddie's name mentioned in this sub forum gets to you that much. I won't be sorry for doing it, or being his fan. It's a shame to me, at least two people come here and don't bother to look more into his career, or bother to discuss him. All the while saying AL is God's gift, the only one who can do Freddie justice, carry Freddie's torch, etc etc. Range has never meant much to me, but the emotion in the music and vocals is what matters to me. Freddie definitely had it, no doubt. The emotion in the lyrics and how he sang certain things, is amazing. Take the last couple of Queen albums. I'll say it right now, it's bloody awe inspiring what Freddie and the other guys did with the music. Of all the things you and sweetcaroline miss out on by being so focused on AL, is the music and the legacy of the man who did more than pave the way for Lambert. Freddie literally wrote, sang and put together a good chunk of the music AL has been singing for years now with Brian and Roger. Think about that next time you think there is too much Freddie on message boards or in Q+AL shows and you want to try to ream me out for my views on Freddie. Yes, you want me to shut up and change how I feel about AL to suit you. That's what it boils down to. Only the music itself can change my mind, and definitely someone who has an ax to grind about me won't change my mind. It is really alarming how angry and upset you become at me. It's not just a one time thing either. Almost every time you post here, you become angry/upset at me. You want to try to turn tables on me, saying I'm obessed about Freddie etc. It's views I post on a message board, nothing I post should end up bothering you as much as it obviously does. The more you post and your strong reactions towards me, the more I think Queen boards aren't for you. I don't plan on going away, shutting up, changing how I feel, to suit your needs and wants. It was a damn power trip you were on when you first started to post here a year or so ago...and you still are on it by the looks of things. |

You guys were comparing Adam to CROONERS, which is an entirely different animal than rock and rollers and the people you listed above. I was only talking about Sinatra and Como in comparison to Adam. I thought that was the discussion. Buble was also thrown in there and while he is a lovely man with a wonderful Christmas show, it is like one from the 1970's. therefore I don't put him on the creative list either. He pretty much copies all of the crooner's songs from years ago. I hardly call that original but I can enjoy people singing who aren't original like him. It is all about the voice. The originality, whether they wrote the music, don't mean squat if the vocals are lacking. And for me the vocals are never lacking when Adam sings. Whether or not you believe it, I listen to lots of different kinds of music and a lot of classical and opera and that is my yard stick. Adam compare more than favorably with those kind of singers. For me it is all about the voice, not all the other side things which some of you are so concerned about. Different view points, I guess! |

She's the one who brought it up, because she feels AL is more original and creative than Sinatra and Como. Do go back and read it, it's all still there. I get that you like AL for his voice. He's not to everyone's taste, hell nor is Freddie for that matter. For Freddie, I put all of his talent together, his song writing, his piano playing, his vocals, his onstage ability to achieve what he and Queen achieved and honestly it's pretty incredible what he and the other guys came up with. AL has released three medicore albums, nothing groundbreaking on it. He doesn't play instruments, his main thing is his voice. And he uses that mainly to sing other people's music. |

Put a sock in it, icy, I said Sinatra and Como did not write their own songs and then I posted a link to all of the songs written by Sammy Cahn and Jimmy Van Heusen. I did not diss them as singers of those songs. |

Why do you feel AL is more creative and original than those two legends, do tell. Or put a sock in it before you rush to big up Lambert. You think because Sinatra and Como didn't write the songs they sang, that it makes AL more creative and original than them. Has AL been a part of a ground breaking musical movement? Has he ever been groundbreaking on TV? Has he sold the amount of albums Sinatra and Como has? Has AL's career lasted as long as Sinatra's and Como's Short answer, no he hasn't done any of that. And of course you think AL is more original and creative, but based on what exactly? |
snifflese 11.12.2018 20:10 |
Icy, I second Caroline, put a sock in it! You keep changing the parameters of the discussion and what was originally said. You are the one always talking about Adam not writing songs, therefore, he is not creative. It is not his sweat and blood in them, but Freddies's. Great! But most of the crooners didn't write their music and as far as creative or original, yea, I think Adam is an extremely creative individual from his staging of shows, his wardrobe, his ideas about what he would like to do. He is into fashion and seems to think a lot about presentation. You can't reinvent the wheel at some point. We have already had a meat dress, a singer who hides her face in ridiculous mask things and people singing on trapezes. There isn't much left anymore, Icy. Of course, artists are going to do things that have already been done. Writing a song is not the only measure of creativity, but I do think the crooners just sang because that is what they did back then, so I can't gauge how creative a Crosby or Como really was. They were extremely successful and well known, but I can't comment on their creativity. I do know that Adam is very creative based on my definition, which differs from person to person. PS Adam was sure groundbreaking on TV! Remember that out there AMA performance that almost tanked his career? Most folks are not going to forget that one, so check in the box for that!! So being groundbreaking isn't always positive, either! It is useless to discuss this because you keep changing the discussion and you think he is not. Great, I do not care, I happen tho think otherwise. I also think at the end of the day, Adam will be remembered which is more than most singers can ever say. As long as he is happy and making good money what more does there need to be? I wouldn't say the poor Freddie could possible have been happy! Is it worth it? |

Thanks, snifflese! I’m done with this conversation because it is pointless. Adam is the current front man of the current configuration of Queen and that is that no matter who likes it and who doesn’t. I have too much to do to get ready for Christmas and out of town visitors to waste my time with brain dead zombies who thrive on negativity and trouble. If I am in the Lambert “bubble” at least it is a nice, warm, happy one! I invite all the unhappy crybabies to join me! Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night! :-). :-). :-). :-). :-) |

You don't even have any thought of your own to even try to back it up. What, no copying and pasting tweets and articles to back you up and try to prove how you are 'right' this time? You are in an AL bubble. Must be lonely in there being so focused only on him, and nothing else. I pity the guy having a "fan" like you. You think your views and the ones that agree with your views, are the only ones that matter. You want Queen boards as your personal playground to big up and promote AL, while saying Queen fans are homophobic and that's why AL isn't accepted. No damn wonder why you are now under your thrid or fourth ban from QOL. You are currently under a year long ban. What the hell does that say about you? You throw fits when you can't get your own way, and you are so quick to call people as negative and crybabies...and you are a cry baby yourselfz the biggest one I have come across on the internet. You are 70+ years old, one would think you would know better, but if you don't by now, you are never gonna learn. Your head is so far up AL's ass, it's not funny. It's shocking actually. You aren't so positive yourself, if at all. Oh boo hoo, AL didn't get nominated for this or that, he didn't win for this or that, he didn't get to pay tribute to Bowie and George Michael on award shows, his music doesn't get played because AL is gay, he doesn't sell as much as certain other artists,...all the things you have gnashed your teeth about. Maybe Santa can bring you a new pair of dentures, or glasses. Common sense would be great too! |

I don't think you and sweetcaroline would recongise creativity and originality from anyone who isn't Lambert. You think a same sex kiss that AL did on an awards show was groundbreaking? Erm, it wasn't. Shock value for some, I'm sure, but groundbreaking? Nope. What will AL be remembered for, genuine question for you? His solo music or the covers he has done? |

It was groundbreaking, dearie, first time there was man on man in a prime time show. Everyone remembers it unfortunately, but it doesn't fit your own very limited agenda, speaking of agenda. It remains to be seen as he is still a young man. Seems to me that Freddie's halo has been shined since he departed. He certainly wasn't held in high esteem back in the day. They were considered weird, different and then there was the unspoken gay thing. Freddie did not have the world wide acclaim back then that he has now. So, you just never know what remains to be seen. I do recognize creativity and originality, but you have a built in bias that does not allow you to see it in Adam. Therefore, There is no point to this discussion. You have your story and I don't agree with it. |

I've seen same sex kisses by males on TV before that. Queen were legendary for Bohemian Rhapsody, Hyde Park, South American shows, Live Aid before Freddie passed away. Need I go on? Point is, many things Freddie and Queen did made history and was legendary while Freddie was alive. Don't try to make it seem only since he passed away, that he has that status. Does it bother you in recent years that Freddie is held in high regard? He didn't have it easy especially in his last years. Even so, he kept on working and singing his heart out. And yes, I respect all of that, and so much more no matter how weird, freaky, some people thought he was while he was still alive. |

How has he 'courageously defied assholes like me'? TwoFux? Sorry, he didn't even write that by himself, it took four other writers as well as AL to come up with it. I just hope the guy never has to deal with some of what Freddie dealt with. That's the definition of courage, not some guy who wears heels while riding a bike onstage that you think brave. Remember when you posted that on QOL? You say I'm an asshole, while your own head is firmly up AL's ass. I'd rather you think of me as an asshole any day, than where your head is always at. |

They just go to be entertained and enjoy the concert. They want to see a front man who is fun and has a fabulous voice and see world famous rock musicians and icons. It is not much deeper than that for normal people. For people like you who can't get their own head out of their own butt, that is your problem, not mine or the millions who go and love the show, Adam, Roger, and Brian. That is enough for 99% of the population. You can live in your never never land and commiserate with poor Freddie while your life passes in misery, because that is what it sounds like to me. |

You proved that like never before on the 24th of November you couldn't even come up with anything of your own to say about Freddie on that date, and as you could after the 24th to post a video that hypes up Lambert and try to say that was a tribute to Freddie.

He wasn't and never will be. But I will discuss him even with the fact you can't stand even the mention of his name. How it must be for two people who are older than I am, always on the defense about Lambert? Always ready to pick fights and throw crap at anyone you and sweetcaroline don't agree with? You both are freaking power crazy. You want and need things done to suit your agendas. You and sweetcaroline are the twisted ones, all the lies and crap you both have spread on Queen boards. Nothing to be proud about, although I'm sure you think it's a badge of honor to say people are hateful, negative etc. I really feel sorry for AL having fans the way you and sweetcaroline behave at times. You end up flying off the handle over nothing, starting shit over nothing, almost every time you post here, sweetcaroline is always the one done wrong and can do no wrong. What will you both do until the next your starts? Throw crap at me, defend AL's honour? Seriously, get a life for yourselves.

I take it you are not going to answer what I asked you above. I actually doubt you have those Queen concerts, or is that Freddie and Queen live isn't worthy enough for you to make a post about. |

You say more than enough about how wonderful Freddie is in concert and maybe the other guys, but they are just there to back up the fabulous, wonderful, marvelous Freddie and who cares about anyone else? Icy, I noticed you mentioned Freddie before Queen. Wow!! You know there were three others in that band any they all wrote the songs, not just Freddie and they played the music, a most essential part.. I think you forget that sometimes. |

I swear you and sweetcaroline can't even think for yourselves, you pretty much share stuff from the same sheet. What do you, trade notes about me or something? You and sweetcaroline have never provided any proof of half of what you claim about me, not the once, it's just something else you and sweetcaroline like to throw around and have other people believe your twisted side of the "story" but it's flat out lies. Someone pretty high up said right on on QOL that I wasn't to blame for sweetcaroline's four month ban from last year. This year, she is still blaming me for her current ban. As well as other bans of other people. And you are falling for it hook, line and sinker. I notice you recently posted on QOL...bring your crap up over there, and say what you are saying about me here. I doubt you have the guts. Do provide the proof that I'm the 'cause' of so much 'trouble', or STFU about it for once and for all. You told me not too long ago that nobody cares, but here you are bringing it up. |

In the light of the (crap) movie full of Brian May lies it is logical that those sheep buy concert tickets and after that they tell their FB freinds "they saw Queen". They saw shit - they saw MAylor plus a twat. Big difference. It is just sad that they destroy their legacy like this... |

Get a life, it’s sad, that you folks are even here on Christmas Day. You seem to be so frustrated, that you threw around the most disgusting things on that day. You’re just sad creatures.

It seems that, according to Ticketmaster, the sales have kind of stalled. After blitzing out of the gate, you would think that this tour would already be a sellout. Now, to be fair, there are about three dates that near-sellout but the vast majority of dates have buckets and buckets of seats left for sale. |

You might have gone to the wrong sites, as what I read today said there was little of anything left other than VIP seats and bad seats. I read this in several different places, so I think they are probably correct. One of the persons posting this info follows all the stats on everything and she is usually spot on. |

rockchic65 08.01.2019 08:17 |
There's a few venues with normal tickets left but most of the others have had extra side stage (almost side/behind) seats added and some upper tier seats extra due to almost selling out (just a few single seats were left originally). The large blue areas are actually there even when only one or two seats are left and don't reflect how many there are in each area, if you hover over you can see the actual amount. Considering the tour doesn't start for another six months I imagine a lot will sell out although the extra restricted view ones might not but they weren't included in the original figures anyway. You can see on the spreadsheet which venues had added seats - far right, but it hasn't been updated since 23rd December so there may be others since and the actual seats left will likely have changed since then. link |

Just been checking the tickets online, pretty much how it looks on that spreadsheet, single seats only left at some venues, platinum seats only at some and just a handful of seats at others and lots with extra side stage seats added, would only be able to see the back of them so you'd have to be really keen to go for those. |

You admi to that, so how am I being negative. |

There is someone on Marie's website (she keeps track of everything about Adam) who does this. It is something about Treasure something. I can never remember the web site but I don't think Adam has done anything professionally w/o it being somewhere on there. Someone on there keeps track of all the numbers for the tours (Adam and QAL, the number of CD's sold, digital streaming, the works). There is also a gal on Adamtopia who tracks all the stats and I would trust anything they come up with. I know a couple of years ago one of the Texas shows wasn't selling and they were lamenting, so they post the high and the low. They wouldn't pretend it is sold out, if it weren't. I checked a couple of venues on Ticket Master and they concur. There is hardly anything left. Now I don't know about secondary sites trying to resell, but that doesn't affect the numbers, as someone has initially bought them. It was pretty sold out after the first few days. They added 2 shows and seats no one would ever want to sit in. I would take it to the bank that this show is a sell out. Amazing for 2 old pensioners (right, Runner??). Millions of fans really want to see them and Adam. I am happy for them as Brian and Roger work their butts off and there won't be that many more tours, so they will have great memories for later on. You want to go out with a bang!! They can certainly say they have. They have both mentioned numerous times, that they never in their wildest dreams would have thought that anything like this would be happening to them at this point in their life and I am happy for them. |

Between the live tours and being able to complete the Freddie biopic, Brian and Roger have pretty much accomplished their dreams. Winning awardsf for the movie is frosting on the cake. I recommend the book about the movie and the sound track CD. |

@Snifflese Was the Texas show that wasn't selling a couple of years ago a QAL show or just an AL show? |

It was an Adam show and it was more than a few years ago (seemed more recent). It was in 2011 in Lubbock, Texas and it was a former slaughterhouse turned into a pavilion for shows but had no AC and was a pretty poor venue, rather rundown. We lived in Texas for 3 years and I cannot imagine a show with no AC with as hot and humid as it gets down there!! Now and again there are some shows which are a little slower in certain parts of the country for both Adam tours and QAL. I remember, however, that pretty much all venues were pretty close to full for QAL shows and the same for Adam shows. His are much smaller, of course, but he sold well also. I saw him on each of his tours and he has a really good show. I enjoyed every one of them. I do trust the numbers from the gals at Adamtopia. This QAL tour is the quickest selling of all of them and I am sure the movie helped a lot. |

That is the venue where EVERYONE plays who comes there. Always making things out to be negative. You must be a joy in real life! |

I remember someone talking about that show in Lubbock, TX. The temp was over a hundred both outside and inside. It was a metal building w/o AC that was like being in hell. Adam, band and audience were in a pool of sweat. |

I remember, too, that it sounded just horrible. I am sure there were no repeat performances there!! Somebody didn't vet it, prior to booking unfortunately!! |

It was August of 2010. This didn’t sound too bad: link |

With the latest Feb. 9th update, this tour can now be called a virtual sellout. |
