Queen and Adam Lambert Australia Dates Added 2014

This was probably his 3rd time for sure being on the site.

Anyways back on topic, I hope the fans in Adelaide and New Zealand will be successful in petitioning for shows there.

I'd like them to get shows although I think petitioning for shows is a bit much. Take into account is will be a very busy few weeks, I hope everyone's well being holds out.
Kinda off topic, but which show are you looking forward to the most? The one closer or farther away from you?

Definitely the Edmonton one, but looking just as forward to the Calgary show. It will be really nice to have two full days to spend in Calgary, hoping to make the most out of it with 'round the city sightseeing and visiting friends there. Honestly, Calgary really makes Edmonton look like a dump (but then nearly ANY major Canadian city would! ;) )

I hope you have fun. Will you give your thoughts on both of the shows? Meeting with friends is also good. Will your friends attend the Calgary show?
I wish in my time I managed to see more of Calgary, but I saw very little. I don't want to give my exact location away, but I went for a little drive east of here a few weeks ago, it was like a whole new world compared to where I live.
Funny enough, I've wanted to go to Edmonton in my 8 years and a half of being here, never did although I've family close or north of Edmonton.
I've accepted I can't go to the shows, it's just that more things come first. The way, I've been feeling lately, I wouldn't want to risk it. What really is a letdown is missing the chance to meet my friends/Queen fans.

Likely will be giving my thoughts after the shows indeed :)

Looking good:

Anyone in Australia notice the complete lack of TV/Radio advertising? Whilst it rated a brief mention amongst the news on some channels, there has been nothing that would inform the general public and so ensure something like a full house. I'm happy if this lasts up until the pre-sale tickets tomorrow, but people in the promotions department need a kick up the arse![/QUOTE]

Hey Cruella, they just added a second show in Sydney:

Lack of promotion in business usually means they don't believe they need to spend the money on promotion - i.e. they think the product will sell itself (by word of mouth, etc.).  From the looks of things, I think they're right.  Any monies saved on marketing (PR, promo, advertising, etc.) are monies that flow to the bottom line, and businesses love profit!

Thanks. It should be awesome to get a non biased review :)

Yup, selling itself!  I wish wish wish I could tie in a first-ever visit to Oz with a QAL concert, but timing is not there for me.  Oh, well, NA venues will have to do.

Wow, in this interview he (strongly) implies he might have heard some of the work Brian and Roger are doing on the unheard Freddie tracks.  Lucky devil!

would be great if adam sang one of the new songs they recorded with freddie vocal on. Also brian said in a recent interview that made in heaven is his favourtie queen song at the moment. I hope they consider playing this live on the tour. I think adam has the vocal range to pull it off, it would be a very hard song to sing live!
