Poll: Queen Fans Vs Lambert Fans, Who Will Share Most New Recordings?

Lambert fans seem to be less inclined to become traders and the past has shown they share their recordings with pride in a way to try to showcase A.L. live. I think the 2012 shows in Hammersmith were covered very well by A.L fans and I expect they will out do us again.

Do enjoy the show would be my advice, don't get hung up on trying to record material, especially video, as you might miss the joy of being there, which is the point of it I think....

The whole idea of recording a concert while it's ongoing is completely anathema to me. When I see people watching the concerts through their phones, while the performers are right there in front of them, I have to scratch my head. I want to be immersed in the experience of any concert I'm at, not be focusing on the technical minutia. Concerts are an emotional, sensation-filled experience, meant to be lived in the moment.

That being said I sure do enjoy being able to watch the concerts online that I have to miss irl. My only issue is to hope that videographers don't interfere either with the performers or the audience in this pursuit. Also, no matter how much I see online, and no matter how good it is, I will definitely be purchasing an official DVD if one becomes available.

I could never record a show, cause I am hollering and singing too much. I am very appreciative of those that do, though. I don't even like to take pics. Good thing I'm married to someone who does..

Me, too! I was close to the stage at a Duran Duran show and pretty much missed the show because I was looking at it through my camera, trying to get a good shot of Simon LeBon! Won't do that at this QAL show although I might go a little nutty if I am pretty close to that catwalk in Auburn Hills!

Yeah Adam fans are far more likely to record. Many fans even stream the live shows when they can. Adam fans share completely so it should be pretty well documented. Copies of all 6 QAL gigs from 2012 were available fairly easily...

Glamberts. It will be easily to tell video wise if most of it will show AL and not much else.

The Lambert fans.

I remember a so called queen fan at their walk of fame induction. He would not share a single photo of that day via email when I politely asked (these were the days when ppl would even upload stuff online pre tumbler but close) maybe trade with the few shots I got (I was an enthused KID at the time)

What a c*nt! (*a dude no less)


I'll gladly share my photos etc of a great concert (of course if the quality is good)

So if people don't share their pictures they are cunts and "so called" queen fans?

It's people like you that made me decide not to share a single tape/video anymore.

Do the work yourself. Buy expensive gear. Take risks. Tape concerts.

Lazy cunt.

Fair enough.

It's gotta be mentioned the WAY the dude said it. I met a few people who traveled to see them that day, shared photos with those guys (2 from Japan), one dude with a burns replica. The point I'm trying to make is that there was either kindness in the group or just weird dismissive people.


Second time seeing Steve Vai. Met Nuno who was kinde enough to give an autograph.

It's been a while but I've shared video and events on YouTube. Alas many were short lived due to being mostly Prince and Stevie wonder concerts.

Intend on doing something for the upcoming tour. Pardon my use of the word c*nt. Maybe it WAS inappropriate.

IMHO if we're talking about *consistent quality* recordings, Queen fans will likely deliver in that department. Can't put a guarantee that the Glamberts won't be screaming all over their recordings.

There are some who do that but there are others who have been quite professional about recording. One woman who calls herself Suz526 gave us high quality videos all through the Glam Nation tour and even traveled to London for the Hammersmith shows. I wonder how much she enjoyed the shows looking through the camera lens, but she was very generous of herself in providing those videos for the people who were not able to be there!

An Excelent thread, but the main question should be? out of all the 26 dates who will be willing to sneek a recorder in & recorded them, so that these gigs don't get lost to the depth of time?

2005 Q+PR (Europe + a few dates worldwide) covered :-)
2008 Q+PR (Europe + a few dates worldwide) covered except Dubai :-)
2012 Q+AL (Europe) covered :-)
2006 Q+PR (North America) Let Down :-(

Come on Guys lets not make this year be like 2006.

Maybe I missed something, but I don't recall any of Adam's concerts going unrecorded by a fan. Often multiple copies show up online (some better than others), and usually they show up within hours of the event. I can't imagine this tour will be any different.
