Oh do grow up! Some of us would petition against the abominable Extravaganza but we're not that childish and, quite frankly, have lives.
As for getting a lot of support from Adam Lambert fans, they are getting a lot of support from Queen fans. For every negative post from a genuine fan (and by that I mean not fans of the Excretiaganza singers or fans of other talent show contestants pretending to be Queen fans but showing by what they say and even how they spell certain things that they're not Queen fans at all) there's a hundred positive ones from genuine fans, and the number has grown particularly after the Kiev gig. Practically all my lifelong friends are fans because we grew up with the band. Not one of them is anything but pleased to see Adam Lambert fronting the band. I don't know anyone in the real world who has a problem with it.
What a surprise to see ptr here and making yet another comment that does nothing but show ignorance and bias. Amateur footage from the Extravagabondanza sounds better? Sweetheart...... professionally recorded, remixed and remastered footage of that embarrassing pile would still sound like walruses backed by kids on tin drums and washboards.
Adam Lambert doesn't have control? Seriously? If you genuinely believe that about a singer who is widely recognised by the great and good of the industry, both musicians and producers, as having the best control (amongst other vocal qualities) they've ever heard in any singer, I suggest you're in URGENT need of a hearing test at the very least.
I'm starting to wonder whether the P and the R in ptr stand for Paul Rodgers. How are you doing these days? In fact, what are you doing?
It's completely beyond me and anyone I know what that young man has done to some of you that is so bad. He's doing a great job of some extremely demanding songs (and, with the greatest of respect, singing some of them better than Freddie ever did live), putting in stunning performances and bringing the band back to life after previously having hired a singer who for all his ability in his particular genre was as much fun on stage as Gordon Brown. I don't know, has Adam Lambert punched some of your grandmothers, bullied your children, kicked your dogs, run over your cats?
What an absurdly over the top reaction from a small (yes, small compared to the positivity) bunch whose heads are clearly as hard as Stonehenge. The guys have found themselves an excellent singer (and it's not like either he or they rushed the decision) who does the songs justice, performs his arse off and has chemistry with the guys. What's not to like? I hope they do make it a more permanent arrangement and I do hope that they record together at some point. I can't see it happening any time soon as Adam has an album out and will more than likely have to tour with that some time this year but long may he reign as singer of Queen.

Okay, firstly I must say that I've not been on this forum for a while, although I've been a fan for many years and Queen is still much in my heart. Secondly, the thread encouraged me to watch the show in Kiev. Well, I've only watched 30 mins so far, but hell... this ROCKS! As some of you may know, the QPR project never really grew on me, but this show is pretty much amazing so far. It certainly does sound like they are developing their "new" sound, but it is exciting and Adam is one hell of a frontman. To hear Queen perform a setlist which opens with Flash and goes stright to Brighton Rock snippets and Fat Bottomed Girls is actually quite refreshing (after all these Magic rehash years). And it sounds very... alive (excuse my lack of a better word, a bit tired at this time of night).
Times have definitely changed, but I think that instead of rebelling against it, they simply fly with it and, wow, Roger just sounds amazing on AKOM. Adam is putting on a very brave face and it sounds like they're just having fun. Where are my tickets now?!

Let me see:
- A petition to ask my favourite musicians to stop their current plans and quit performing with their current line-up? No, thanks.
- A petition to ask my 60+ year old idols to stop their current hard work and start all over? No, thanks.
- Apetition to discourage the current output of Brian and Roger? No, thanks.
- A petition to deprive me and millions of fans from the fun of seeing them perform live, maybe for the last few times? No, thanks.
- A petition to ask Brian and Roger to actually not go into a studio and record together, even with any other artists they choose to do so with? No, thanks.
Mmmmm, as you see, I am really in serious doubt here, but, no, thanks.
Cheers,

Some facts about Adam Lambert!At the start of June 2010, Lambert embarked on his debut headlining concert tour Glam Nation, playing throughout the United States with Allison Iraheta and Orianthi before performing throughout Europe and Asia. His concert in Malaysia on October 10, 2010, went ahead as planned, despite protests from an Islamist political party.[90] Lambert performed a total of 113 shows; nearly all of them sold out.[91] The concert performed at Indianapolis was filmed for Lambert's first video release Glam Nation Live, a package included a 13-track CD with a DVD which featured the concert and behind-the-scenes footage.[92] The concert, which MTV called "out of this world", and his subsequent video release, were well-received, with Entertainment Weekly saying that it "sizzles" with the energy that Lambert's vocals bring in a live concert setting.[93] Glam Nation Live debuted at number one on the SoundScan Music Video chart[94] and landed in the number-12 spot on Billboard's 2011 year-end chart for music video sales.[95] This followed the release of his first extended play (EP), titled Acoustic Live!, which included acoustic versions of his songs recorded live in various countries. The EP garnered excellent reviews and was called "electrifying" by the New York Daily News.[96][97][98]

Citing influence from various artists, Lambert has become recognized for his flamboyant, theatrical and androgynous performance style, and his powerful and technically skilled tenor voice with multi-octave range.[14][15] He has accrued numerous awards and nominations, including a Grammy nomination for Best Male Pop Vocal Performance, and has sold nearly two million copies of his debut album worldwide as of April 2012[16] and 4.2 million singles worldwide as of January 2011.[17] The Times identified Lambert as the first openly gay mainstream pop artist to launch a career on a major label in the U.S.This is the guy you say can't sing?

I didn't like the performance much, some good, a lot bad, but I am not signing any petition.
If this is what they want to do let them get on with it. It's their band.
I'm going to continue to watch whatever they do with him, because some Queen is better than no Queen.

What did you like and not like, Pingfah? I'm only asking because I've watched it over several times and the only things I could find not to like were the technical glitches but that's in the hands of the technicians and the lap of the gods and nothing to do with the guys themselves.

Stop complaining, Adam Lambert could finally resurrect your dead band, you're supposed to thank him.

I don´t particularly like AL that much , but he was ok. Freddie is dead, and "THE QUEEN" is not never , ever coming back. As sad as it is ,it is a fact. And because of that fact i´m very glad to see Brian and Roger playing live, whenever there´s a chance. I do agree that there is a lot better singers than AL out there, but since he was their choice, I´ll get over it and will go on to the Hammersmith , to see and listen bri and rog play , with a huge smile on my face.
