Legendary rockers Queen have announced that they will be performing in South Korea for the first time in their career as part of their upcoming tour with Adam Lambert taking over vocal duties for the late Freddie Mercury.
Queen will take the stage at Super Sonic 2014 festival at Olympic Park in Seoul, South Korea in August. They will also be headlining the Super Sonic festival in Japan.
Queen's Roger Taylor had this to say, "I first visited Seoul on a promotional trip in the early 80's and was so impressed by the architecture and culture. It will therefore be very exciting to finally play a concert and bring the music of Queen to this great city with Adam Lambert." link
Fantastic development from the initial USA tour!!! I hope they come to Brazil, even if I think I might be able to make it to some of the US gigs.
On a side note, as it is usual business, the quotes seem to be made by the band's team. I am not a native speaker, but I don't think Roger would use "therefore" in that context. It seems too formal and more related to written than spoken English. Again, I am not a native speaker,so that's just my humble opinion.

So it seems that Queen are hell bent on keeping Lambert
as lead singer of Queen but been very sneaky they have never admitted this to the press.
Five years ago they claimed they would just like to play on stage with Lambert and now another full blown tour!
Have also noticed that this site is now littered with adam lambert news, blogs, posts, whatever you wanna call them,
and the real essence of the Queenzone is now turning into
a Adam Lambert fan based site.
A sad day for this Queen site.
I am always happy that Brian and Roger play together. I can appreciate their talent regardless of the "+" they choose. Of course I would prefer a rock singer and my vote would go to Jeff Scott Sotto. Anyway, even if I have my own dreams, I get the best out of reality (heh).
Cheers,

yeah a real rock singer to temporarily tour with Queen would have been better than Adam Lambert any day.
Not sure who though? any ideas anyone??
Its so sad no one chats on here about Freddie anymore, its Lambert this or Lambert that, and that is the reason i wont ever re-join the international Queen fan club again, for a start its a complete rip off for the money and the pictures will be all lambert looking smug and poncy!
King Mercury will always be the voice of Queen!

you need to chill fella. put the bile away, live n let live...and more importantly...bide your time....it'll be one tour and done.
Soon it'll be yesterday's news - just like the Queen+PR thing
then move on. , find some alternative bands to listen to...
either way, let the bile go...it'll kill you in the end, and life is too short.
let's face it...they (queen) are not worrying about how much grief they cause you...so why get hot n bothered about them in the first place
Brenski: You must understand that i have been a Queen fan for 40 years and yes it does hurt
to see the guys on that slippery slope down, when they were once that magnificent rock group,
i really feel so embarrassed that the rock world is laughing at us Queen fans as the lead singer
is a reality star from american idol, how awful is that!
No theres no grief with me but sheer frustration and disgust.
i will blank whats going on at the moment, and spend MY money wisely on a real Queen
product when the new Queen cd with Freddie gets released in the autumn.
