"This is not the end it;s juat a pause..."

These are the words Mr Lambert quoted at last nights Brit Awards when asked if the was it after the tour.

Sounds to me as if we will see they rock up at Glastonbury on the Saturday night headline slot...

Fingers crossed, Very glad this partnership will continue, and prove yet again the naysayers no nothing...

*just, *if, *know



I don't really care but get your grammar right, please.


It's all kinda disappointing to me. Maybe that was just bound to happen, even with Paul Rodgers.

"prove yet again the naysayers no (sic) nothing". - it proves bugger all my friend.
Let them who approve, enjoy, let them who don't, pass on it.
The fact that the subject causes so much reaction on this site,says a lot.

The older I get, the more irritated and the less patient I feel when reading the writings of people online who make frequent typos, don't use any punctuation, and pay no attention to their spelling.

Apparently they are to headline rock in Rio in September, sources in Brazil are Quoteing ! Apparently the show must go on !!

True, brenski.


Since I went through it, I'm starting to think the feeling is similar to the feelings of Queen Fans in the 80's and 90's.

I.e. "Queen release THE GAME and HOT SPACE"... "die hard fans mortified. ... "it just isn't the same. ... they aren't the same"

As disappointing as it was to ME, I'm certain there are many youth who were brought into the fold that see it as incredible.

Meh. It just "IS WHAT IT IS."

Let's hope everybody takes it easy in RÍO. Rife with exploitation and sex trades it's likely to result in some craziness soon; in particular with the Olympics coming up.

i could be wrong,but is glasto tickets a 3 day one....no day tickets?

*sigh*

I can't believe it took me a while to read that, pathetic.

Oops, sorry a couple of typo's was rushing out of the office as I typed..... anyway, my point was not to start a discussion on grammer... more importantly that they are continuing with the partnership and, as we now know Rio is the first announcement. My money is on Saturday night headlining at Glastonbury, but that will not get announced till maybe May.. anyway, onwards and upwards, Brian and Roger seem very up-beat about this, more so than I can remember since the early days of Freddie, certainly the last 10 years or so with Freddie they didnt seem to be having as much fun on stage as they are now
So bring it on I say

You could be right about Glastonbury, although I would have thought if, they played it, they would have headlined the Sunday night in "The Legends" spot.

If they are going to do something before Rio I wonder if they may do their own outdoor headline show, Wembley maybe?

Indeed, Saturday/Sunday either I guess, I doubt they would do a one off 'own' outdoor gig, they will probably dismantle the stage after this tour and send the hired gear lights/audio off back to the hire firms, doing Glastonbury will not require much of their own stage and neither would Rio, a one off show is very expensive to put on, however if you are going to turn up to a pre-planned festival most of the stage is already there.

Glastonbury unlikely, Lambert will be busy promoting and touring his album all summer, then autumn a handful of South American dates with Queen, I'm guessing, wouldn't be surprised if they go into the studio at some point this year to kick some ideas around.

I would'nt say the naysayers no nothing Jonathon it's their choice not to add their support as did I.

I'm not bothered whether folk like it or not as you say their choice, what I find pointless are the thousands of comments repeating Queen died after Freddie etc etc... eerr well no it didn't in fact it's more popular now than it was when he was alive.... go figure, no I have no problem with people saying they dont like it, fine.... so what, but comments such as Lambert can't sing.... sorry but nonsense he clearly is very capable and seems to handle their stuff better than anyone so far.

Anyone that understands even the basics of music or musical ability can see that he can sing bloody well, and is every inch a showman, much in the same way Freddie was. Now that doesnt mean you have to like his voice, I dont like lots of singers voices but it doesnt mean they cant sing. I dont much like Elvis, but he could certainly sing and certainly perform with the best of them.
Adam Lambert is very reminisant of a young Mercury, he doesnt have the middle range that Mercury had, but he can certainly hit the notes and he performs the songs in the 'Style' they were both written and maybe meant to be performed. So I would say he fits pretty perfectly with the 'brand spirit' of Queen.

You dont have to like him or what they are doing now, but surely if you are a real Queen fan you are more open minded than to slag off anything that isnt 'classic queen' after all the band themselves have done everything from punk to disco, that's the whole point of them, that's why they are still here 40 years later, they evolved as they did from 71 onwards, if they stayed producing the same stuff as the first album they would have vanished without trace, even if they recorded 20 ANATO's people would have been fed up after 3...

As i say I have no issue with people no liking them now, or Lambert, but the stupid ignorant comments here appear to be from either lonely 13 year olds in their bedrooms or numpties with no understanding of talent or musical skill, or what it takes to perform like that,and I dont understand how such an open minded band, can generate such closed minded ignorant fans, and I use the words fans under protest...
