If Adam Lambert buggered off, who wold you like to see fronting Queen?

Paul Rodgers, Jeff Scott Soto, Matt Bellamy, Justin Hawkins.

Gerry is correct. LAMBERT IS SHIT!

Brilliant question and very original. I can't believe no one has asked it before. Ten thousand times.

Having seen them a few months back, I'd go for Gary Cerone of Extreme.

Nice pick onedunpark! I listen to them a lot.

Utada Hikaru

The guy from Keane (I think his name is Tom Chaplin)

Jimmy Gnecco (havent heard a lot from him but his song with Brian is very good)

Let's face it the era of Queen+ touring won't continue for that much longer surely? Brian will be 70 in 2017 and Roger a couple of years later. I can see this decade seeing the end of them touring full-stop. Maybe they'll do a one-off farewell show marking their 50th anniversary in 2021 but then again maybe not.

As for Lambert he does nothing for me whatsoever. He might have decent range but the tone of his voice and delivery is nowhere near Freddie's and his style of singing/performing is not to my taste. I have nothing against him though -he certainly has more singing ability then many other music artists clogging up the charts.

If they have to tour I would prefer them with someone better and would be a more suitable fit for Brian and Roger but who? That is the question. When you had someone of Freddie's skill as a performer with that voice, anyone else comes off second best.

They can tour if they want and I hope they enjoy it and see full attendances but I won't be going.

I just wish they'd stick their head in the archives for a few years and give us more material to the same standard as LMIYHA.

So? Try making that argument with Roger Waters and Paul McCartney.

If Adam Lambert buggered off, I would like stop this Queen+ proyects for a while and launch a studio album by Brian.

So, here we have an alternative idea that fits.

Click on the image " Freddie Posing1981" too enlarge it...it`s worth it :)....( no it isn`t him of course).

Actually, I think Freddie rey is on to something! Luke Spiller is pretty awesome. In fact, he's... nuclear.

Have very little interest in the current version of Queen +. I would much rather Brian record a new solo album.

Interesting comments to my thread on here.
Personally a selection of guests on tour with Queen would have been great, and more value for money.
To pay over £77+ booking fee is a bit steep when only 2 original members of a group is present.
George Michael, and Gary Cerrone where interesting choices and better singers than Lambert.

very interesting comment as your avatar signature states [i][b]"gerry  - Purist Queen fan & proud!"[/b][/i] - which kinda contradicts completely what you are saying above.

but the entrance fee isn't relevant to "how many original band members are performing" otherwise Deep Purple would be selling concessionary tickets to everyone on every tour since 1969!!! - they are just a karaoke version of themselves these days!
All that matters with regard to the £77 is whether YOU want to see the band enough/or YOU consider them good enough to pay it
