Dont know why you guys are against Lambert - didn't you know that he was actually one of Freddie's favourite singers of all time and really influenced Freddie? Freddie would have been thrilled at this collaboration - FACT! ;-)

The problem is that they've chosen a talentless young cock instead of a singer
I'm wondering how popular this will be:
Queen with Adam Lambert;
£82 plus transaction fee;
That supporting line-up.
Is this going to appeal to many people?

I know Adam has come from american idol and i know in those kind of programs you have to make the most of the opportunity and I think we should give him a chance and Brian and Roger obviously like him and he himself has said he is not replacing Freddie, who could!!!
I prefer Tom Chaplin. unfortunately, he is not so popular in states as AL, i guess, that mattered.
I'm considering going. Faith No More are one of my favourite bands.
Jeesss...how low can you go...
They decide to do ONE show, on a festival, with the worst singer ever.
The show must go on? No, thank you, let it stop. It's getting really embarrassing.

Well guys if he is the worst singer ever make some suggestions for alternatives!! Exactly you cant.
I dont like him mainly because he's from one of those simon cowell shows. But at least he is a Queen fan and knows all the songs.

Belfastqueenfan,
As was suggested by others I think that a final tour with different singers could work out nicely.
Elton John for the ballads, George Michael for the more soulfull work, and get Robbie Williams for the stadium Rockers. THAT would be bowing out in style!
Do 5 to 10 shows and call it a day. Everybody happy and nobody would make a fool of themselves.

Obviously, times are changing...
In 2004 Brian May said: "Paul Rodgers was one of the Freddie's most favourite singers." And Paul sang with Queen.
Nowadays some Adam Lambert says: "Freddie Mercury is my favourite singer." And he's going to sing with Queen...

About 7 years ago I knew the Paul gig was not going to last forever. I saved money, packed up my things and crossed the Atlantic to see them 4 times (and a fifth time the next spring). I'm glad I did.
I hope that somehow they make this work. I would have thought Adam would be Ok for a one off in the US and someone else for the UK (Tom Chaplin perhaps?). Does people even care for Lambert in the UK?

I am glad B+R are back on stage. Nevermind the singer, they might know what they are doing.

Got my day ticket and seriously looking forward to it.
Don't blame Brian and Roger, blame Freddie he caused all this!
Yes, 'us fans' might be accused of being picky, and whether it be with releases or live shows we generally get told by the likes of GT and GB that the 'product' isn't aimed at fans but more for the wider public. However, I've just started to see some of the general feedback on various sites and forums about the news, and this is from 'non fans' and general concert goers - almost without exception the decision to tour with Lambert is being universally derided and slated.
If no-one had heard the fruits of the collaboration then it could be argued to 'wait and see', but the proof is already there in the appalling job that Lambert did at the MTV Awards, so it is an informed opinion that everyone is putting forward. God knows what Brian and Roger heard in their monitors that night to make them think this is a good idea.
