Cabaret style rock with interplay between a shrieking "keep me in focus" twat and some old fella who is far better utilised and more productive these days in the fields of England.
The audience looked polite but really bemused.
Please stop this shit now.Because you're killing my happy teenage memories for the sake of a few more dollars.
I'm afraid it is a young mans game. Roger and Brian, you both looked out of puff, out of ideas and, ultimately out of your league.
I don't like AL but he is a current artist and means some misguided thing to the crowd.
Apart from the hard core no-one gives a shit about Queen anymore in the States.
Come home. Shut up.

I think you're a wee bit off the mark there. I'd echo some of those thoughts with regard to the badger song and collaborations with PSY and Dappy, but to call the guys out of puff, ideas etc is a tad harsh. Of course, you're entitled to your opinion, but telling them to come home and shut up? At the end of the day, you are not obliged to listen or watch. If you know it's not for you, then don't put yourself through it. Easy. I avoid the AL stuff because I personally don't rate the guy at all, but watched some of the footage for the Fun/Nate performance. It was below par, but Brian and roger certainly weren't. Brian, in particular, put in a classy performance, and that's great to hear.

Well put, splicksplack.
It was even nice to see them perform with Paul Rodgers back in those days. Fine by me. But what's happening these days is nothing short of shit. I don't even want to see a single bit of that recent performance they did with AL.
And it's pretty sad that you can't go back in time to those beautiful Freddie times, however stupid it may sound.

Yeah it is sort of cabaret and pretty v much like guns and roses are now. Their own respective best tribute band in the world.
It really wasnt bad but it's clear they're both assisting each other here.
Adam gets lessons with great material. Brian and Roger keep getting paid and get more exposure but I'm CERTAIN a great part of it is also that THEY WANT TO PLAY

Lostman how can you agree with someones view when in your post you've said that you haven't seen the gig.
Splicksplack, when is somebody to old to be a musician?

Haven't looked at it, haven't read about it, not interested in it. If it wasn't for 2 delusional pensioners who fell for the 'Freddie is my idol' shite, that prick making that stupid noise at the front of the stage wouldn't be good enough to work at mcDonalds.
Keep lapping it up suckers.......

But I've seen other gigs. I saw that Kiev concert in June last year live on TV. Hell, I was getting mad at times back then because I knew I wouldn't manage to get there to see them live! And I was irritated because I had once missed their massive concert in my hometown, and I had then promised myself that if they were touring once again (not even in my hometown, but somewhere near in my country) I would certainly go to see them this time. I even had complimentary tickets, which meant I would be allowed to stay in the fanzone. But things frankly didn't turn out fine for me that time around, again.
But know what? Having seen that Kiev concert on TV, I came to the conclusion that I was quite disappointed. I just didn't like it. To be honest, I had been expecting something 2008-like, just like that awesome show in my hometown five years ago, but personally for me it wasn't anything of the like. I don't regret not managing to get there last year, but I still do regret not seeing them live in 2008.
I have given up, and since then I am no longer interested.

So, playing and writting music is just for young men only? And what age is the limit? 45, 50, 60?
So, in his 60 b-day the police must confiscate all Brian's guitars?

I wouldn't deny anyone the right to make music.
The problem is when you perform and look like you need a sit down. Or you're hoping your knee will hold out.
It's just not dynamic. Performance is more than a massive PA and lights (as Freddie proved over hundreds of his peers).
I know it's hard to face but without Freddie there is just no Queen show. And especially so when the half still attempting it are on the fast track to 70 years old.
Rock and pop was always the preserve of the young until the young started getting older and needed to keep paying the mortgage.
Now it's beyond that. It's pure unadultarated ego.
I mean what the hell are they trying to prove? It seems so pointless. Knocking out your hits again and again like some bloody 80's end-of-the-pier show.

What makes you think that Queen gives two shits about your teenage memories. I certainly don´t give a fuck about you or your memories.
But this is a Queen fan site, so if you feel the need to say such things about my/our beloved band you can go fuck yourself and you can take your girlfriends on this thread- who i don´t give two fucks either- with you!
I´m very glad that you guys don´t like or approve Queen+Adam Lambert, because that means that you are not going to be in the audience of their shows. It´s a win win situation both for Queen and the fans who are going to attend and enjoy their concerts.
People are free not to like it, but show some fucking respect both for the band and the fans who come to queenzone to have a good time, and have to read your SHIT. You don´t like the band, FUCK OFF to other forums. There´s plenty out there for guys like you.
