Yes, the fans in South America are clamoring for them to come back again! |

They only will do Europe in the next tour ;) |
runner_70 07.07.2018 15:48 |
No One in central Europe wants to see them again - Germany was their best market - in Cologne they gave away half of the tickets for free and not a single concert was sold out. With Freddie they sold out stdiums effortlessly. What does that tell you? |
snifflese 07.07.2018 16:10 |
You are so full of it. There are numerous spread sheets on various sites that I read and the 2017 European tour was almost totally sold out. The handful that were not, only had a few seats left. Prague was sold out, as were Munich and Budapest and Lodz sold 11,850 out of 12,000. Quit spreading lies around because you don't know what you are talking about. I am sure giving away half the tickets is crap. There are always a few places for every concert where they have some of these deals. It happens with every artist, not because it is QAL. Just because you want them to fail, does not make it so! |
runner_70 07.07.2018 16:24 |
Munich was about 75% full in 2018 - for COlogne more than 8000 tickets were given away for free and when they played the stadium a few years back there were 18000 people in a 50000 stadium. Absolutely embarrassing. But as they get a fix salary they dont care. Maylor do anything for a quick buck - even if it destroys their legacy which they have been doing for more than 6 years now with QAL |
snifflese 07.07.2018 16:36 |
I don't know where your numbers are coming from, but that is not what I saw on several sites for the 2017 shows. Munich was sold out in Dec. of 2017 and all the central European show were pretty much sold out. They did not play there this time in 2018, so you cannot say they are not popular there. If there were no concerts in Budapest, Prague or Lodz this time around, you can't say no one wants to see them again. Those arenas were sold out 7 mos ago. (Nov, 2017) I have no clue about numbers for this time around in Germany. I seem to recall people at the venues saying the Germans shows looked pretty full in spite of the dire predictions. I never believe anything you post on here. People were saying no one would be at the TRNSMT show in Glasgow and what a failure, giving away tickets for QAL. They had 40,000 fans at this week's show. In 2017 three nights of the same show amounted to 120,000 fans which would be 40,000 a night. So Queen performed well and there were tons of fans and absolutely stunning reviews from the official media and thousands of posts on social media! You are living in a total dream world and just can't seem to grasp what is really going on with the band. They have been beyond successful and making new fans out of old ones and gaining thousands of brand new fans. The majority who do post,mention Adam's stellar vocals, which as I have said before, is weird. People don't normally talk about a singer's voice. His voice is referred to as strong, powerful, perfect for Queen's music, chilling and the list goes on. Do yourself a favor and face reality head on!!! |
runner_70 07.07.2018 16:41 |
Why are you talking of "queen" - you donÄt even say "Queen plus" ? This is really Queen for you? Like a cake is just an egg and flour?? The one living in a dream world is you as this shitfest has nothing to do with Queen at all - the only thing that is about Queen is the fact that the songs are butchered by Lame-Bert, thats why he is wearing a butcher's dress in the beginning which seems clever to me (see I am positive about sth!)They lost lots of the old fans who just laugh about them. No other band members of such iconic status have ever mad such a cringeworthy collaboration with a casting muppet - NONE. Stones Beatles ACDC - FUCKING NONE. But the best band ever until 1991 does -- fucking sad |
snifflese 07.07.2018 17:27 |
Look, it is too hard to always write plus Adam and when I am responding, I don't always think about it. You know what I mean and no, they are not the original Queen and no one, including me, says that. Talk about being pissy about little details. I don't understand the butcher business. We don't have anything like that here and no, he doesn't look like a butcher. If you said that to the average person, they would have no clue what you were babbling about. That is a pretty weak insult. I don't think there are as many old fans against QAL, as you think. They are changing their minds right and left, because I have read far too many posts from "old fans" who said that the show is wonderful and Adam changed their minds. There are always old sour grapes like you and some who love the old Queen, but wouldn't be ugly about it and I don't have any problem with them. You, I do have a problem with as there is no reason to be so vile. We get that you don't like it, but how many times need you repeat it? We got it!! By the way, if you write in English, lose the casting muppet. That just sounds stupid and no English speakers would have a clue what you mean. Nowadays it is a reality show contestant. Just for your edification! Who cares where Adam was found? Makes no difference to most of us. Thank goodness his talent and voice were recognized!! |

I find it quite impressive how much time and energy some people spend trying to convince other people that Q+AL is not Queen, shit, destroying Queens legacy etc. What is the point of this? Too much time? Too much negative energy? Queen is owned by Brian, Roger and Jim Beach these days...they van so what they want, some of us will like it, some won't. Whatever we feel about it, whatever we will write about it in the internet it will mit change a thing. But telling other people they should not like it is absolutley nonsense. What a waste of time this is... |
jeffuk49 08.07.2018 08:50 |
Even in 86 they had problems seeing some of the German dates, i know as was based in Germany then. there were so many offers including buy one get one free in the weeks leading up to the shows |
rockchic65 08.07.2018 09:42 |
Also the figures for the shows aren't in yet so no way to know how many tickets were actually sold. One of the best shows was apparently Berlin, the crowd went wild for them there, and correct me if I'm wrong runner but isn't that in Germany somewhere!!! |
jeffuk49 08.07.2018 11:09 |
oh and I'm a Queen fan from the 70's I loved them live with Freddie and I love them live with AL. I took an Adam hater to a show a few years ago and he was omg hes nailed it and he loved the show so much we've been to 3 since then |
SweetCaroline 08.07.2018 11:52 |
jeffuk49, that’s what I’ve been saying for 6-1/2 years now. You can’t judge the QAL collaboration by watching it on YouTube. Like other concerts of other artists, you have to experience it live to get the true picture. And I’m not talking only about Adam because the whole show is so impressive thanks to those two legends putting it together. Adam is not just a performer from a reality show. His stage experience started when he was age 10. That’s why he was so comfortable on American Idol. Most of those contestants have never performed in front of a live audience before that show. Adam is a better live performer than recording artist. On his solo tours his recorded music comes alive because he gives it a different vibe on stage that is not possible in the studio! I’m glad the Dublin show is not the end and if possible I hope the Vegas gig isn’t either! |

I have been to 2 QAL shows. One each time they played in the States. There were a lot of Queen fans sitting near me and we talked before and during and after the concert. The ones I spoke with really loved Adam and the show. I didn't meet one person who hated it. I also listened to other conversations when I was walking about and leaing the show and the overall atmosphere was that people were happy. I really don't thing most old fans still hate it |
rockchic65 08.07.2018 16:18 |
From all the twitter/facebook comments this last week there are loads of Queen fans going to the shows now. I've seen a lot of comments saying they were skeptical and changed their mind and one guy even said "I didn't like Lambert, only went for Brian & Roger, but jeez the guy can sing and he's so respectful to Freddie's memory and to the band, totally changed my mind, absolutely loved it". |

Dublin review: link “#BohemianRhapsody by @adamlambert and @QueenWillRock at #MarleyPark in Dublin tonight. Blown away by the success of this collaboration which absolutely works. Lambert is a master performer whose abilities are a perfect match with Queen. One of the best concerts I’ve ever seen.” |
runner_70 10.07.2018 04:07 |
I read the review above this sounds hilarious: "Lambert starts the show in some sort of red leather jerkin, during ‘Girls’, he shows off platform heels that would have given Edmund Hillary vertigo. Before they go into ‘Don’t Stop Me Now’, he reappears on stage in a green leather jacket and pink checkerboard pants, rising out of the stage on the head of the giant robot from the cover of News Of The World, not missing the chance to make an arse joke about it either. He rides a bicycle around the stage for, you’ve guessed it, ‘Bicycle Race’, and it’s no ordinary bike either, more a cross between Pee-Wee Herman’s two wheeler and a child’s tricycle. He strokes the microphone in a way that would make Price blush. Yes, he is certainly flamboyant enough for the job, the kind of fellow you could imagine receiving a late night call from Liberace advising him to “tone it down a bit”" I realldy dont know if that paragraph is very favourable. I doubt it - but he is spot on. Being compared to an underage molestor and Liberace is not the best thing i guess......... |
SweetCaroline 10.07.2018 12:29 |
You forgot to mention the last lines: “Wasn’t it incredible? Bloody marvelous!” |
snifflese 10.07.2018 16:48 |
Talk about being disingenuous, Runner. You also forget to mention the last part of that paragraph: "Yes, he is certainly flamboyant enough for the job, the kind of fellow you could imagine receiving a late night call from Liberace advising him to “tone it down a bit”, but does he have the pipes? The answer is a resounding yes. Of course he’s not Freddie, but who could be? His voice does everything asked of it and more. He’s very good value indeed." So that changes the whole tenor of what you chose to include. Then you missed the part at the end (that SC posted) about the concert being incredible and bloody marvelous. You can't pick and choose and leave things out to make it sound as if it supports your view when in reality, that was not the gist of the article at all! You are a disturbing little keyboard warrior that can't abide facts and lies to try to make his point. You are welcome to your world view, but constantly refuting everything just gets a little tiring for everyone else. |

It was a bit stodgy. A bit too much meat and two veg rock. Some good vocal performances by PR though as he is a great singer. I love Reaching Out and Wishing Well. But tellingly they aren’t Queen songs. Overall the set list with AL seems better and more Queen styled. |
runner_70 14.07.2018 08:59 |
The thing is for QPR you got three legends for the price of one and no glitter and schmaltz. The Free/BC songs were awesome the collab was totally believable. With QAL you get a casting muppet as a bonus and treats like TwoFux. Quite a difference isnt it |
AlbaNo1 14.07.2018 10:23 |
In PR and AL they have done two different collaborations which are at the opposite ends of the spectrum , both in music style and status in the music industry, trying to cover for FM who is not replaceable. If I was God I’d rather tone down Lambert , and loosen up Rodgers but unfortunately we can’t make a singer for Queen. AL gig was better. For QPR the whole was less than sum of its parts . |
SweetCaroline 14.07.2018 14:22 |
In 2012 when the QAL first started there were Queen fans faulting Adam for being too stiff and because of his height looking like a giraffe. As he has become more comfortable now some people think he is OTT? They are forgetting that Freddie was constantly in motion except when at the piano! |

Now a sparkling onesie and superman on stage could qualify for me. You really don't need to tell Caroline about schooling Queen fans. Then you wonder why she says something to you.

I dont like it now. AL is not a Queen or a King however ;-). If you think Freddie on supermans shoulders while wearing that silver costume is over the top, ok thats one thing. I dont agree with that it was ott, and it was pretty tame compared to other things. Harmless fun at the end of the day. As for inu liger, he said i wasnt mentioned.

Too bad for you that you don't know or care much about Freddie and Queen, because that could open your eyes. I dare say you are missing out on so much by being so focused on AL. I'm not the obessed one here. That is you. But you always must deflect and try to make me look bad. |

I think calling Adam a queen would very much depend on who said it and how. It is like being called Madam. If Brian says that with love, it is fine. But if Happy Star or Runner call Adam that, it would not be fine because they would mean something deragatory by using that term. Being obsessed with someone has nothing to do with "the homophobia excuse". I agree with Caroline that Adam might be in a different place now, if the AMA stuff hadn't happened and that was related to Adam being gay. Pictures of him and his boyfriend were released on Fox News and I am pretty sure that didn't help Adam win Idol. Adam has himself mentioned being told by a theater director to "tone it down" (the gay). He has talked more lately about being gay and there were definitely things that affected him because of homophobia. I think Fever would have been a huge hit, but he couldn't put "him" in there. Even 10 years ago things were quite different and Adam was most definitely affected by them. To say that in no way means I am obsessed with him! I don't understand the relationship to feeling Adam's career has been impacted by homophobia and obsession. I truly don't believe that Caroline is in any way lusting after Adam. That is ridiculous. Even old gals still can see if a gentleman looks good or not and there is no lust there! I can say Elvis was a hot ticket, but I am not lusting after him. Being able to say that someone is handsome or sexy does not necessarily imply lust. Geez Louise!! Quit throwing crap at her just to see what sticks!! People can focus on what they want. It is harder for me to focus on Freddie, since I never saw him in concert or anything like that. I can enjoy Queen for what it is without an encyclopedic knowledge of Freddie. I have been following Adam for 10 years almost, seen him in every tour and the QAL tours and he interests me more and I am sure the same goes for Caroline. Adam and Queen are a known entity that we read about and have seen and Freddie is just kind of out there. I am just not as involved with him, so it doesn't pique my interest as much. It doesn't mean I don't admire him, but I don't think of him on a day to day basis. We post here about QAL and not on the solely Queen boards for a reason. And that is OK to do, Icy, You don't need to throw that in everyone's face. Everybody has preferences and they are all good! |

And that is OK to do, Icy, You don't need to throw that in everyone's face. Everybody has preferences and they are all good!Look at this way. Look where AL is now. Forget the bloody AMA Awards, what happened, happened, and I think AL was stronger and more determined because of it, or in spite of it. I'm thinking some people throw around homophobia too easily in regards to AL. What excuses will it be next time if his solo music doesn't do well? Yeah, sweetcaroline lusts over AL. Why does she have to point out how good looking, sexy, gorgeous he is...and on Queen boards. That's lusting to me. It's like horny Bieber fans from a few years back that preteens used to post. Thing is sweetcaroline is far from a preteen at least age wise. What do you mean Freddie is just kind of out there? I'd love your views on some things about Freddie and Queen. But it doesn't interest you as much as Q+AL dose, whch honestly I think is a shame. I know you like other music, which is good, at least there is that. As for throwing things in my face. How many times will sweetcaroline throw and bitch in my face because I haven't gone to my Q+AL shows? Plenty. And I think that's messed up, especially I explained to her why I couldn't go. So she does her share of throwing things around too. Yes, everyone has preferences. I like Q+PR more than Q+AL, but I admire and respect Freddie, Brian Roger and John even more. I'm not ashamed of that. |

I dont know what happened at AMA (whatever that is) but the only reason why this tool has no solo career and is living on Maylor is the fact that he simply sucks. Full stop |

Full stopThere's lots of reasons his solo career isn't as successful as it could be and Adam being Adam and stubborn is probably a major one but if he's ok with that then fair play to him. The AMA is the American Music Awards. First televised solo performance of his single off his about to be released first album after Idol. Adam was given the closing spot and he ended up dragging male dancers around on leashes and doing a really in your face performance ending with kissing his male keyboard player. Safe to say it didn't go down too well and they cancelled several tv appearances he had for the next few days to promote his album. It's sort of followed him around ever since and the guy over the AMA's boycotted him which is why people always mention it. |

Stubborn????? He is a waverider in every way. Trying Max Martin covers etc. Always looking for the flavour of the month. a CASTING MUPPET bar 3. He cannot write songs nor play an instrument. So all is is looking for are the right pple and the current music trends. Safe and bland. And not even this is working the slightest. Even Joe Public is not that deaf and dum to believe that he is any good. |

Hm i smell bullshit regarding the AMA thing. Might be a good excuse for him to cover up his lack of artcistic abilitly. In 2018 noone should be bothered if some guy kisses a guy. SO what? |

SO what?This was back in 2010 and I said stubborn because he still refuses to apologize since in his opinion he didn't do anything wrong. They got complaints after the show that people had let their kids watch and his answer was it was shown at 11pm at night and he isn't a babysitter, it's up to parents to decide what they let their kids watch etc. If he'd done the p.c. thing and said sorry it would most likely have blown over but every interview he did he stuck to his guns even though he's since admitted he was worried he'd just blown his shot. If he'd done it now I daresay no one would bat an eye but back then it wasn't the case. As to him going along with Max on the album etc, he had left his previous label and been picked up by Warner, my guess is he didn't have a lot of clout to be able to decide exactly what he wanted to do. He's not an idiot he knows it's a business and you're a commodity who they expect you to earn money for them so he's had to toe the line on certain things. |

Guys, Lambert is a Queen. He himself said so. I can‘t remember where, but it must have been shortly after my first QAL gig, when I came around to like the collaboration and googled the guy a bit. It might have been an explanation for a Queen tattoo of his? Besides, I‘m still neither a woman nor gender fluid... lol. |

Since you’re still at it: Adam himself said „I‘m a queen“. Search for it, if you don’t believe it. I only threw it in, because it could be one reason for the coronet being there. George Michael was never a queen. I don’t know anything about Lambert’s private life, so I can’t judge that. I only go by what he said. So: Where do you think the band name „Queen“ came from? Freddie suggested it. What did it mean to him? ;-) |
rockchic65 15.07.2018 10:07 |
Adam calls himself all sorts of non pc names, don't know how much he really identifies with them - his favourite seems to be fag. I guess he might see himself as a Queen since he is flamboyant and gay, not sure about effeminate though, I don't really get that vibe except when he's deliberately putting it on. |

Adam is not effeminate. What he does when performing “Killer Queen” is an act! His other performances are quite naturally macho! |
