well the tour is nearly done and i have to say.i have went from unsure to...yep....i can say with mr lambert has convinced me,he fits in....stunning performance in glasgow,a bit camp at times,but all in all .a good entertainer..he did some amazing vocals(save me in particular)..and got the crowd on his side..........so......did you see them or listen to them and go..yep he fits in or not.. |
| someonewholikesadam 18.01.2015 21:21 |
Yeah ..... he's okay. |
| Highland1dog 18.01.2015 23:02 |
I didn't have the pleasure of attending the concert, but listened on a livestream with over 1,000 fans. It was fantastic to hear the concert and yep, Lambert is one of the best vocalists in the business now. |
| Oscar J 19.01.2015 06:33 |
If they came to Sweden, I'd probably go see them. Mostly to see Brian, who's still really got it. Rog is unfortunately a shadow of his older self, and Adam... while he's getting better, he's still far from a tasteful singer to me. I feel there's something very synthetic and awkward about both his singing and staging. |
| Togg 19.01.2015 08:54 |
I have been less keen on his voice than I was with Paul Rodgers, but having seen them I would say it was the best they've been since Freddie, and the fact that they can do the whole back cat without changing key is amazing. So a big thumbs up from me, Lambert did a simply excellent job. |
| Mr.Mouth 19.01.2015 10:30 |
Ni I didnt changed my mind. He is stll a goat screamer,oversings and his stage presence is not so called good like samsay. Remember he was a runner up on american idol. Guy has celebrete himself singing other songs. Just another syntetic singer with high pitch sound that isnt that awesome in high pitchd vocal sound. |
| The King Of Rhye 19.01.2015 11:25 |
I said it before a few times, I was ready to hate this, for some of the same reasons that people give now......as in 'they're going from a rock legend (Paul...now I was thrilled about Q+PR from the first moment I heard about it!) to an Amer. Idol guy?' I guess I must be a fairly open minded person though, I gave it a chance, heard some of the '12 bootlegs, saw a show in '14, now I'm all in....... Just waiting for the live DVD/CD and the studio album now! (hey, it might eventually happen...) I wasn't really on here much at all at the time of the Q+PR stuff......I'm guessing people weren't as divided about Paul as they were about Adam....or maybe they were but for different reasons? |
| andyb1968 19.01.2015 12:24 |
Hated him at the MTV awards, but he has just got better and better, new years eve was outstanding ! Going to Manchester on Weds, and I'm as excited as I was going to watch Queen in the 70's & 80's ! Hoping they do make an album, I think it could be a fantastic swansong :-) |
| MercurialFreddie 19.01.2015 12:26 |
David, why do you say that the tour is nearly done ? It will end on the last days of February assuming that no more dates will be added (I think they will). |
| ANAGRAMER 19.01.2015 13:00 |
Personally I was sceptical about the collaboration when it was first mooted but, having seen them on tour, it's difficult NOT to like Adam Lambert The only thing that, for me, was an issue, was that the performance was sometimes a bit static and heavy footed... ...the camp thing suited Queen to a T! |

Adam has a new album out soon with a tour and there will certainly be no more Queen activity with him involved until the end of next year at the earliest, if indeed ever again, Bri & Rog will be damn near 70. If you can find a way to go to one of this years shows then do it. We owe Adam a massive debt of gratitude for giving us the first 2 months of a very busy year for him. |

" You guys must of forgotten what Freddie was like." Oh yeah, we must HAVE..........after all, I've only listened to him for 25 years, and he's only my favorite singer of all time..........I do realize, too, that because I like another singer must mean that I now think Freddie's crap....... |
| kosimodo 19.01.2015 15:12 |
As Marknow says: Clearly more suited then paul rogers.. Adam is camp and sings high. Killer Queen and Who wants to live forever suits him best. You and i would be better suited for him then f.e. I want it all. To bad they didnt totaly adjust towards his voice. |
| QueenTwo 19.01.2015 15:22 |
King of rhye - Totally agree it seem's so silly but it's not just Adam, although I really do think he's bad taste! for me it's just the last straw in the Queen camp (for want of a better word) it's all been going down hill for a long time now for me and the lambert things the last straw for me, will still enjoy listening to some of the music but just don't want Queen item's all over my house anymore.Roger & Brian really sicken me now and as daft as this sounds I just don't want to own Queen & related memorabilia & rare item's anymore! been a big collector since early 70's have shit loads of stuff - so now I feel the time is right while it may be still pretty valuable in price to get rid of now..Who knows this time next year there may not be many older fans/collectors left who look out for such item's. I've collected, bought sold & traded Queen rarer item's for many years thinking I would keep forever, but now I just don't feel I do anymore, specially seeing Brian & Rogers face on them (couldn't resist that)!!! prob keep some special Freddie and john item's but that's all. I'm not so sure the younger fan's would be into collecting item's as much as all us older dinosaurs did, and I really don't blame them, it can get pretty pointless. |

The experience with other bands shows that it doesnt matter what does the band do, nobody will be 100% satisfied. Yes, Journey, Deep Purple and other bands shows that if the band replace a member with an impersonator, with someone with a personality of their own, or even if the band stops, some fans will complain. |

It does make me laugh when you read what people say about Freddie on the internet, most of whom never saw him live, he made mistakes, sang bum notes and off key just like every other singer out there he wasnt perfect but he could put on a bloody good show. Lambert is young and energetic, he has a bright future ahead of him after this, my opinion has changed a lot, I think he was amazing at holding the crowd, respectful to Freddie and the band, he even thanks them in the tour programme again. I loved the show, would go back a hundred times, I hope they make an album and once again try new things, dont care if it sells lots or a few, I just love the sound they make. I wish Adam well for the future I own him a huge debt of thanks, finally I was able to take my daughter to a Queen gig and she could see why I love them so much. Without Adam this would never have been possible. So thank you. There is enough back cat stuff to keep classic Queen fans happy listening to that for years.. new Queen+ Adam Lambert fans will have some of the best show since 86 to remember. I saw them in 80, 82, 84, and 86.... 84, 91(tribute), 2006, 2008 1984 was nowhere near as good as this show 2015 was and neither was 2008. |

| Costa86 20.01.2015 07:41 |
I saw them on Sunday in London, and I did change my mind on Adam. Let's just ignore for a while the idiotic, inane and repetitive comments by armchair critics who keep sounding the tedious tune of "you must have forgotten what Freddie was like". Most agree that Adam has a technically brilliant voice, but that it somehow didn't sound as good as it looks 'on paper'. I think he has improved with time, especially since he has been touring with Queen in the past months. He sounded very good on Sunday, and the impression I get from others is that he has been sounding great during the European leg of this tour. Having seen Queen and him on stage, I've changed my somewhat skeptical ideas about the band and him touring again, and I now think they're doing a pretty brilliant job. And the audience seemed to love it. That's what Queen was always about - engaging the audience. Will the tossers who keep saying he isn't Freddie just sod off? Who the hell said he had to be as good as Freddie to be good? |
| gerry 20.01.2015 08:06 |
Real wizard: You are very wrong, (Queen2) is NOT me under a different name! I agree with what he says though about the Lambert/ Queen hype. There is no future in this ridiculous combo. it is simply a way to get money and Lambert talks shit when he says the tour is to keep Freddies memory & music alive, well i have news for you all, Freddie Mercury does not need anyone to keep his music alive because he is a Legend, and Legends never die. Presley, Lennon, Hendrix, Mercury, will all live on because they made an impact on the public. Lambert is nothing more than a money making Leech feeding from Queen and Freddies legacy. Glad i still have money in my pocket rather than give an american xfactor contestant my hard earned cash. |

| ggo1 20.01.2015 08:38 |
The first few concerts Adam did back in 2012? I saw the videos and thought he was ok, but had potential. Now I think he's really good and I'm sorry I only went to one show on the tour last year (Montreal). I've said before, but the current band and setup feels a lot more like a Queen show than Q+PR did. I really enjoyed the shows with Paul but it never really felt like a Queen show, this does. (And no I'm not saying it's better than with Freddie, I saw Queen plenty of times with Freddie and he was absolutely the best front man I've seen,but that doesn't negate this current tour being rather good) Interesting how the newspaper reviews are so much better for this than they were with Paul Rodgers, I genuinely thought they'd rip them a new one for daring to go on stage and play the songs they wrote and recorded but it seems in general Adam is winning over the reviewers despite being almost unknown in the UK. GG |
| ggo1 20.01.2015 08:39 |
I should have put in there, tat I think Adam has grown a lot by touring with Queen. He's lot a lot of the excessive vibrato he had originally and whilst he does seem more suited to the poppier songs, he makes a damn good fist of the rockers. |
| Vocal harmony 20.01.2015 09:21 |
In 2012 there seemed to be a huge amount of dislike toward AL when the first gigs were talked about, even before they played. At the time I was shot down for saying maybe give him a chance because he will sink and fly on his own merit. I couldn't believe when the first gig was streamed in 2012 someone on here who I'd always thought was very intelligent spent the whole stream ripping the piss and claiming he shouldn't be there. They've since almost stopped posting anything while the current tour is selling out arena after arena for the first time since the 80's. Lambert is a great front man for the band. It's great to see them out there doing what they do. I really think the Gerry's of this world set out not to like him, and no matter what he does they never will. That their loss because they are missing possibly the last or at least one of the lad chances to see Queen being Queen. I've been at every show in the UK and I would say a good 80 percent are long term Queen fans, and the other 20 percent have had a lesson in some of the greatest songs ever played. |

No, I haven't changed my view, I do respect the fact what Brian and Roger do, it is their choice who is fronting the band. But the my days that I must see and hear the band are over. I have taped the Big Ben show, but I still haven't seen a minute of it. Again, this has nothing to do with me disliking Adam, as a matter of fact, on Facebook I have seen many pictures of the O2 show. Adam camp, Adam being too gay, Adam too much overdressed, so what? What I have seen on the pictures, there is nothing wrong with Adam his stage present. Maybe, just maybe I will watch the NYE show. Tom |
| gerry 20.01.2015 11:35 |
vocal harmony: My choice is i detest Adam Lambert, my standards are a lot lot higher than many on this forum, and when you said Queen with Lambert are closer to what Queen used to be well in my opinion Queen will never be Queen with out John Deacon or Freddie Mercury, so why lie to yourselves when the band is a skeleton of its former self? I do not wish to waste my money on an alien singer, feeding of Mercury's legacy, i find it offensive and unnecessary and Queen as a band could still be massive without this hype of a tour with Lambert. I have no regrets at all for missing this pile of dog shite. There are other 70s groups out there now who are more entertaining than Queen & Adam Lambert. As far as i am concerned Queen have crossed that line that says this is ridiculous and going nowhere fast. |

Wanted: one Stormtrooper in Stilettos. He had a concept of the type of artist he wanted to be and with that voice and steady improvement he has become that person. He's thrilled to bits.

| gerry 21.01.2015 08:42 |
Alien because he has no right to be preaching to Queen fans and a clone because he wears leather like Freddie used too, and he takes the piss out of Queen camping it up and he looks like a freak, I am so ashamed of Brian letting this talentless freak take over Queen. Things have got worse and worse for Queen, as far as choosing lead singers go. Brian and Roger do not give a toss who sings the songs now because they have lost there respect for the fans. |

Who needs to go to the live shows, we have seen enough of Lambert at the Big Ben concert on Tv and it was embarrassing and made my stomach feel sick! Why would i want to give Lambert my money and see him live for when i know i hate him? I first saw Queen live back in 1979 right up until 1986 and i know what is amazing and what is rubbish. Adam Lambert may be ok as a solo artist but not Milking Queens legacy. Its a bit low feeding from someones fame and talent who is dead . |

if i had not ever saw Freddie Mercury live or Adam Lambert i would still choose Freddie over Adam any day. Its not rocket science to see that the Magic has been sucked out of Queen since Deacon and Mercury have gone. That is why i do not bother with Queen "live" any more. All Queens glory days are long gone and thank goodness we still have them on DVD and CD. What May & Taylor are now doing is making money out of a group that is on its last legs & they know it. May recently said in Classic Rock Mag, " i hope we do not fizzle out" goes to show its on his mind! |

I fully realize that there are plenty of people, here and elsewhere, who don't like Lambert. But it doesn't change the fact that you're an online schizophrenic. You've posted the exact same post hundreds of times on this forum. Do you somehow feel happier, like you've put in a good day's work? |

The tour has sold out because people were curious & wanted to see and compare Lambert to Mercury's Magic. I am thinking many will think Lambert is ok but no where near as magical and dynamic as the great Freddie Mercury. After many have seen Lambert i am sure not many would go back, they now know what its all about. Lamberts day in court is nearly over! |

For once, you posted something accurate. Nobody's claiming that Lambert is as good as Mercury was. And considering Lambert has his own career and Bri and Rog are pushing 70, well, duh. Even a broken clock is correct twice a day. Well done, Gerry. |

I was hesitant about Lambert but after last night at Leeds my mind is changed. Lambert was sensational, I never thought much of his singing style before, but in person he was flawless. Powerful, perfectly pitched and an excellent showman. I have never heard anybody hit the notes he was hitting live so perfectly and I cannot think of anybody who could have filled Freddie's shoes more effectively. A truly fitting tribute to the greatest frontman of all time. Everybody with me agreed. If you haven't been to a show, your opinion is not relevant. |

gerry wrote: no need for sarcasm, even if its not your fault that your american lolOr to correct the blatant grammatical mistakes: "No need for sarcasm, even if it's not your fault that you're American LOL" LOL is an ancronym and should be capitalised to indicate that, plus all the other corrections. Now why don't you just sod off and never darken our doors again? |

gerry wrote: if i had not ever saw Freddie Mercury live or Adam Lambert i would still choose Freddie over Adam any day. Its not rocket science to see that the Magic has been sucked out of Queen since Deacon and Mercury have gone. That is why i do not bother with Queen "live" any more. All Queens glory days are long gone and thank goodness we still have them on DVD and CD. What May & Taylor are now doing is making money out of a group that is on its last legs & they know it. May recently said in Classic Rock Mag, " i hope we do not fizzle out" goes to show its on his mind!Nice avoidance of my question so that you can re write what you always write. |

Everytime I see Gerry vs everybody else exchange posts - I'm highly amused. If I'm having a bad day - I look forward for the comedy :D |
