Petition against Q+AL?

You people with the petition thing really are lame. Lambert is just a guest singer and there is only 4 more concerts. Exactly how old are you? Stop embarrassing yourselves.

Nice to see Im not the only one who likes (and support) the Q+AL gig.

I like the current lineup. Lambert may not be your favorite singer, but he is doing a great job. I hope they do more tours and even a live album!

Definitely not true.

Perhaps that is the case in music-related things, but petitions have made huge differences in environmental and social issues worldwide.

Even in Canada when they tried to pass an online surveillance bill (disguised as a "stop the child pornographers" act), over a hundred thousand people signed and it thwarted this proposition from a majority government.

Carry on ..

What makes the criticism from some so-called Queen fans of Adam's use of vibrato is that if professional critics had any criticism to make of the performance, it was that he "too often tried to copy Mercury's vibrato" (which in itself is complete tripe as Adam's vibrato is a natural part of his voice when holding long notes or reaching high notes, as it is for any trained singer, and at no part in any of the two shows so far or the EMA performance has he used any voice, tone or nuance that wouldn't have been heard in any of his solo live performances).

Perhaps those who claim to be such great fans should actually listen closely to the great man himself, particularly on live footage. Freddie's vibrato could have often registered on the Richter scale.

Well they haven't in the UK. You get news stories where thousands, hundreds of thousands of people have signed a petition that has been presented to the door of number 10. Once a politician has decided on something thats it. UK politicians would see a reversal of a decision as a massive sign of weakness and their ego's are far far too big for that.

Is there a petition to make all the online petitions immediately effective? I'd sign that one first.

You asked me a question and I gave you an honest answer. Your opinion of what does or does not make a "real Queen fan" is of absolutely no importance.

Grow up.

Well do you guys prefer Brian and Roger to retire? I think you do. You're just a bunch of haters disguised as fans.

He did well with some tracks, was way off in a few of them and -in my opinion- nailed "Who Wants to Live Forever".

Petitions are stupid and never accomplish anything. The only petition I signed was one to get Q+PR to tour Mexico in 2008 and that didn't work out. Biggest market in Latin America and they missed it. Fuckers.

They definitely should have played Mexico, as well as done more dates in Argentina, Brazil and Chile. BTW, in which sense do you rate Mexico as the biggest market in Latin America? Do you mean the biggest market for Queen matters? Are they that popular over there?

Cheers,

Arnaldo, agree! Brazil, please. So I can meet you and watch Queen +! :P

Oh, crap. He sang "Who Wants to Live Forever?" One of the songs I was hoping they'd steer clear of.

At least Brian had the good sense to not let Adam anywhere near "Love of My Life."

D'OH! Double post. *headdesk*
