Let’s see, if the setlist is going to be the same as last year. It’s the same tour (aka The Rhapsody Tour), so I don’t expect many changes. But there are a few songs that have only appeared during the Asian legs before (I was born to love you...). Will they be back? Here is the setlist from the last concert of their US leg: Intro Innuendo 1. Now I'm Here 2. Seven Seas of Rhye 3. Keep Yourself Alive 4. Hammer to Fall 5. Killer Queen 6. Don't Stop Me Now 7. Somebody to Love 8. In the Lap of the Gods... Revisited 9. I'm in Love With My Car 10. Bicycle Race 11. Another One Bites the Dust 12. I Want It All 13. Love of My Life 14. '39 15. Doing All Right 16. Crazy Little Thing Called Love 17. Under Pressure 18. Dragon Attack (alternating with Machines) 19. I Want to Break Free 20. You Take My Breath Away 21. Who Wants to Live Forever 22. Guitar Solo 23. Tie Your Mother Down 24. The Show Must Go On 25. Fat Bottomed Girls 26. Radio Ga Ga 27. Bohemian Rhapsody Encore: Ay-Oh (Freddie on screen) 28. We Will Rock You 29. We Are the Champions God Save the Queen As I said I don’t expect many changes. At least not for the concerts in South Korea. But just maybe they are going to play “Good old fashioned Lover Boy“, since it made the Top 12 Queen song list in that newest release in Japan. I don’t even dare to hope for “The March of the Black Queen“. I would like both better than “Machines“. And I will be happy , when Doing Alright stays. Since it’s part of the movie soundtrack I expect it to stay. They could even play a bit more of it. |

It would be a nice change, if people here would care more about the topics than about a troll. With your posts you give him all the attention he’s looking for. And he succeeds in destroying another discussion right from the start. So, what are your thoughts/hopes about the new setlist? |

I don't expect or even hope for changes in the set list. That said, if one song returned, I'd be happy/thankful for that. Crawls back under the covers, I feel like shit this week. |

I'm staggered that still haven't done Good Old-fashioned Lover Boy, that song is perfect for Adam. Brian must like the song too he often talks about that song when asked about backing tracks etc. There must be a higher chance now because the song got into the Top 12 in the Greatest Hits in Japan vote. |

Killer Queen is more than enough. |

I never expect anything else but a greatest hit show. Still, they are changing up to 30% from tour to tour. But this isn’t a new tour, it’s only the next leg of the Rhapsody Tour. So, until now (Love of my Life ) I haven‘t heard any difference from the setlist I posted yesterday. But I have missed about 15 minutes of the stream, so if they changed something, please tell. If you want to listen live: this audio stream works pretty well: link |
anadamfan 18.01.2020 12:42 |
No change. If I didn’t miss anything, they played the exact same setlist as during their last US concert. |

The Main reason why Robert Plant never did a Led Zep Reunion tour was that "j he is no human jukebox". Big big Kudos to him to do his solo stuff on a way smaller scale and doing his own new adventurous music. If Maylor had not become that money hungry they could have done the same. But that ship has sailed for good |

I don't think it's a bad setlist TBH - it's got a balance of hits, early songs and album tracks. It just makes it more interesting when they tweak them by either restricting or adding/replacing songs. |

I don't know how other groups do world tours, but I assume it is basically the same all over the world. This is a continuation of the Rhapsody tour, so I doubt there would be wholesale changes. It is too expensive to make stage changes, etc, which I saw someone complaining about here on a thread. This is going to be the same tour with a few tweaks for everybody. I think it is great that 2014, 2017 and this tour had such different stages, themes, lights and gimmicks. What do you want, something different each night? It doesn't make sense from a financial stand point and it just makes their lives harder to rework it for every different part of the world. As far as set list changes, yea, a few different songs would be nice, but I really like the big hits and I don't mind hearing them at each concert. Most concert goers are not die hard Queen fans so they don't recognize the deeper cuts. The guys have mentioned often enough how a few of the songs they tried just really impeded the flow of the concert as the energy just dropped. I loved Machines, for example, but there wasn't much singing as nobody seemed to know it in Ma and the momentum just kind of dies. That is why I think they keep playing all the big hits that people know and really come to expect. If Adam doesn't do TSMGO, people want to know why. The band wants the energy to keep building and at this point, the band knows much better why and what they should be playing. When you have such a huge catalog, you can't please everyone, but you can please most of the folks by playing the really big hits. Those are expected each concert. I know a few folks that have seen over 50 hows, one over 100 and I never see them complaining. I will take whatever the band wants to play, as it is all wonderful!! |

I'm sick to death of you saying stuff like I'm only a Queen fan up to 1991. Times moves on, I can see some of your points occasionally but Q+AL is in truth a celebration of Queen and Freddie. It's a real shame that Freddie and John aren't here today but I'm sure that they'll both be pleased about how popular Queen have come again thanks to the movie and Q+AL - I think they are the only classic band to have grown in popularity to the same extent this century. I just find it selfish and disrespectful for the four members and the serious and most loyal fans to always be so negative.

You are such a nasty piece of work! Why don't you take your own advice? And don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out. Obviously John has no problem with this and I imagine he is getting his cut somehow and if he doesn't complain, it certainly is not your business. Of course, they are Queen, what in the world do you think Roger and Brian would call themselves? They are still Queen and I read somewhere that the largest percentage of songs played in this tour were written by Brian, so they truly are his songs and he can do whatever he darn well pleases with them. As far as knowing what Freddie likes or would like, they were his pals for how many years was it? And how many years have you been intimate with the group? Get over yourself! I tend to take people at their word and I suspect that Freddie and Adam would have a little bit of a mutual admiration society going on. They are both nice men with great voices who like to dress up and perform, you bet they would like each other. A cover it is not when it is your music. Is that beyond your ability to understand? Adam does a great job carrying on with the music and allowing millions of new fans to enjoy Queen's music and that is only a good thing. And Roger and Brian are having the time of their lives which any real Queen fan would certainly be happy about. But since you can't understand that, you aren't much of a fan in my book. |

Of Course May Songs are the majority as he sees himself as the leader of the band finally after all those years of standing in Freddies shadows. Too bad that he still needs him selling a ticket for a concert or a movie, even though he made him look like a selfish asshole in this horrible flick. What makes you think that Maylor are Queen?

You are so full of it that I can smell you all the way across the Atlantic to the East Coast. Gosh, you are a disgusting human being. Freddie's solo music was not all that, so maybe it took all four of them to be Queen. Have you ever thought of that? I very much doubt it was just Freddie that made it work. It took 4 people to make the magic and now 2 of them can do whatever they feel like with their life's work and more power to them. They have a life, have had a wonderful, successful life and here you sit trolling on the internet. Roger and Brian are in the business of making people happy. They don't give a rat's patootie about you and your opinions and neither does anyone else on here as those opinions aren't worth the powder to blow them up with, as my Dad used to say. You give yourself way too much credit! If this is the high point of your day, you are a sad little internet troll, nothing worse than that. |

So according to your sad and pathetic logic: If Freddie was still alive ROger and Brian could hire a talentfree singer and call themselves "Queen plus a twat". That's what you're saying. See things clearer now? Or still need some help?

At the risk of getting yelled at- I'm a relative newby who got into Queen after the movie made me realize what they were ( innovative, creative, talented writers and performers in multi- musical genres, 4 who together are/ were indeed greater than the whole etc). It made me a fan who hated herself for having been too busy with marriage and law school and motherhood and partnership and clients to be aware of them when they were truly them. Now, over a year later, via concerts, music videos, documentaries, interviews, membership in Queen groups and new friendships I have become a crazed Queen and Freddie fan and lover, and fully understand all of the fiction/ dramatic licenses found in the movie. I attended one Queen/AL concert last year. One was enough. I loved the lights and much of the sound and Brian s guitar including the space theme additions etc I didn't hate AL He has a great voice. But it wasn't Queen as I had come to know it. And what I REALLY hated was that AL changed the intent and meaning of what I consider some iconic Freddie songs. Just one example: He took Somebody To Love which was written and sung by Freddie as an emotional plea for Love , and through leering, winking and dry humping changed it into a search for Somebody to F--k. One other: he sat fanning himself while in spangles not singing about Killer Queen but ...being her. Onstage , Freddie was fun and funny and emotional and strong and expressive and camp but never Las Vegas man. That image is just wrong for the music. Also- from the perspective of someone fairly new at this but also of an age not far off from that of Brian and Roger- I don't think this is a cash grab. I think they sorely and emotionally miss the adulation and excitement of touring as Queen with Freddie. I don't think they need the money. I think they are both suffering from a late onset of a kind if mid life crisis. Being on stage with fans yelling in large groups- screaming fans at the Seoul airport last week- provides an adrenalin rush for two seniors who are trying to avoid any realization of how years literally sprint by as they age and want to travel back in a sort of time warp to a facsimile- but just that, a facsimile- of how things once were. |

But it wasn't Queen as I had come to know it. And what I REALLY hated was that AL changed the intent and meaning of what I consider some iconic Freddie songs. Just one example: He took Somebody To Love which was written and sung by Freddie as an emotional plea for Love , and through leering, winking and dry humping changed it into a search for Somebody to F--k. One other: he sat fanning himself while in spangles not singing about Killer Queen but ...being her. Onstage , Freddie was fun and funny and emotional and strong and expressive and camp but never Las Vegas man. That image is just wrong for the music. Also- from the perspective of someone fairly new at this but also of an age not far off from that of Brian and Roger- I don't think this is a cash grab. I think they sorely and emotionally miss the adulation and excitement of touring as Queen with Freddie. I don't think they need the money. I think they are both suffering from a late onset of a kind if mid life crisis. Being on stage with fans yelling in large groups- screaming fans at the Seoul airport last week- provides an adrenalin rush for two seniors who are trying to avoid any realization of how years literally sprint by as they age and want to travel back in a sort of time warp to a facsimile- but just that, a facsimile- of how things once were.While I accept you don't like this version I don't agree with this comment - I think they are both suffering from a late onset of a kind if mid life crisis. Brian & Roger are musicians and yeah the adrenaline rush from screaming fans will surely be a huge draw as it would for any performer but that doesn't mean they're having a mid life crisis or trying to go back in time they're just enjoying being able to perform again in the size of arena's and stadiums they did originally (who wouldn't). They've made it very clear this isn't meant to be a recreation of how they did things with Freddie and Adam is free to interpret their music how he feels it so of course his versions will be different than Freddie's as anyone's covering a song would be unless doing an exact copy. I get it's not for everyone but that doesn't make it wrong and it doesn't mean Brian & Roger are wrong it's just their version now. |

You are completely spot on about the "changing" - especially STL. Absolutely annoying seeing Lamebird wabble on stage like a duck. It is almost as if he he is making fun of the lyrics and the song. Apalling. Same with KQ. And you are right: Totally Las Vegas Schmaltzy Queen! I disagree about two points; "AL is a good singer" - no he aint - powerless, not fitting the hard rock songs, off timing, just hitting high notes does not make you a good singer Maylor are not in it for the money - they have become the Paul Stanley and Gene Simmons of Queen. Selling subpar products to high prices (including concert tickets for their coverband). And surely they miss the adulation. If they played as "Maylor" they would play smaller theaters. The name "Queen" is selling the tickets and they use their lame "Freddie would have loved it" as excuse/justification!100% Nostalgia cover band. And the movie was a mess - clearly a revenge of May towards Freddie due to his lifelong jealousy until this day. The guy has a HUGE HUGE ego problem! Welcome on board - don't let the Glamtarts get you down. There are only a few around here. One you just read before. Beware of snifflese (completely a Freddie Hater and surely no Queen fan just a Glambert) and Sweet caroline (completely disturbed Glambert freak). Keep on rolling the good postings. |

If Freddie were performing those songs today he would be freeer to interpret the meaning instead of just pumping his fist. Adam has sung only KQ and STL in a more camp way, not the other songs. |

So Freddie sang STL with a pumping fist?????? He played Piano while singing. Lameass is shaking his butt like a duck and comes across like a bad comedian. That says it all |

He said that in the box will be two version of "face it alone" and another one with Lambert ( yes, that's right Adam sung it special for you).Are you glad?I said that you are crazy about Lambert and you will be happy if at least one song with his voice is added to the box set. |

Freddie lived when this issue was not globally accepted (prison or death sentence in some countries and still to this day in a few). If Freddie was alive today he may have been more open on stage perhaps not to the same extent as AL but possibly as open as Elton John. |

Freddie actually only sat at the piano at the start of Somebody To Love and then moved around the stage putting as much emotion into the song as he could.Freddie did not like having to sit at the piano he loved to be able to move around the stage as much as possible.I am beginning to think that this site is beginning to become a place where instead of celebrating Queen is a place of hate and people just ranting and swearing at each other.This is not what this site was made for ,we should of course debate issuses but in a adult way.Some need to get all that hate out of their system in other ways,join a boxing club or something like that.Its the few who spoil things for the rest of us. |

FInally..... Here's the answer to what you posted in language you understand I never said Freddie toured as a solo artist. . . . Idiot. |

Where on earth are the admin on here?? Can they not delete this absolute idiot and remove him from the forum? He adds nothing of value...just constantly posting on positive posts about Lambert turning the negative. |

It made me a fan who hated herself for having been too busy with marriage and law school and motherhood and partnership and clients to be aware of them when they were truly them. Now, over a year later, via concerts, music videos, documentaries, interviews, membership in Queen groups and new friendships I have become a crazed Queen and Freddie fan and lover, and fully understand all of the fiction/ dramatic licenses found in the movie. I attended one Queen/AL concert last year. One was enough. I loved the lights and much of the sound and Brian s guitar including the space theme additions etc I didn't hate AL He has a great voice. But it wasn't Queen as I had come to know it. And what I REALLY hated was that AL changed the intent and meaning of what I consider some iconic Freddie songs. Just one example: He took Somebody To Love which was written and sung by Freddie as an emotional plea for Love , and through leering, winking and dry humping changed it into a search for Somebody to F--k. One other: he sat fanning himself while in spangles not singing about Killer Queen but ...being her. Onstage , Freddie was fun and funny and emotional and strong and expressive and camp but never Las Vegas man. That image is just wrong for the music. Also- from the perspective of someone fairly new at this but also of an age not far off from that of Brian and Roger- I don't think this is a cash grab. I think they sorely and emotionally miss the adulation and excitement of touring as Queen with Freddie. I don't think they need the money. I think they are both suffering from a late onset of a kind if mid life crisis. Being on stage with fans yelling in large groups- screaming fans at the Seoul airport last week- provides an adrenalin rush for two seniors who are trying to avoid any realization of how years literally sprint by as they age and want to travel back in a sort of time warp to a facsimile- but just that, a facsimile- of how things once were.Excellent post |

That has not been the case at any of the 3 tours that I attended. I love to chat and the original Queen fans that I have spoken with at my three shows all said how much they loved Adam and were so happy that the music was brought back to life. I didn't meet anyone who said they were just there for Brian and Roger. Several did say they went originally to see them, but once they heard Adam and how well he works with them, they loved him and would go again. I have also met fans who were originally Queen fans at Adam's solo tours. I do think his music is quite different and there are not as many of those. But it is patently false to imply they only go to see the 2 originals and don't like Adam. I don't know where you are getting your info from, but read the tweets, posts, reviews of original Queen fans and they almost unanimously say how surprised they are that the concert is so wonderful and what an amazing vocalist Adam is. I think you are just reporting what you want to believe and it ain't so, Dude! |

I go to unbiased sources like ticket master reviews where I read a lot of things from folks who weren't prepared to be wowed. You bring up sources as if they were from the Holy Bible or something, places where people like you don't like change. Just so you know, Adam really hasn't had any off nights and you can take that remark to the bank. He is nothing but consistent. Can't find fault with that amazing show is there is none to find. Some of us are easier pleased than you. I don't think you like anything but maybe it is just Adam. Regardless I know what I know and QAL is hugely popular around the world and most of the people are growing very fond of Adam and his performance with the band. Just give it up and go chill in some dark closet which is where I assume you spend most of your time anyway. |

Coming in Hot and New Eyes aren't on it, there's better songs than those and I wouldn't rate Superpower as the best on the album even though that's the one he put out as a single, I like the EP and love Feel Something, the other two songs not so much. |

Slight bit of impartial fact checking here. I remember Adam Lambert appearing on the Zoe Ball's Radio 2 show to promote his solo work - it's the most popular breakfast show in the UK and has somewhere in the region of nine million listeners so it's fair to say that 'Millions and millions and millions' were made of his work through promotion, no? |

I could watch Adam Lambert, and I’d be fine with it, but he’s not in the same league as Freddie, and we know it, it’s like settling for something less while watching QAL live. Adam’s tolerated by hardcore Queen fans, not loved. He’s not as great as you think. |

The setlist from the second Tokyo show (1/26/2020): link As expected they added“Teo Torriatte“ and “I was born to love you“ for the Japanese dates. But it’s a surprise that they scratched “Fat bottomed Girls“. I think yesterday has been the first time that they didn’t play that at a full QAL gig. They also changed the order of songs. IWBTLY was behind Radio Gaga yesterday and moved up to the middle of the set after Dragon Attack today. |
