Sail Away Sweet Sister might fit in there on Brian's solo set. Those are the things I'd appreciate. I really think Adam's take on the great jam track Dragon Attack is phony and atrocious. Same goes for We Wil Rock You.... and to a lesser extent the rock songs.
I read here that someone felt that Adam was using backing tracks. When I saw them I didn't feel that was so.
What was missing from the show was that PUNCH that rock and roll is supposed to have - and the volume wasdelicate

Why complain, no one is forcing you to buy a ticket. Those who want to go will go, those who don't won't .

Yes, i totally agree with you about buying a ticket, but i can express my personal feeling/opinion

Well, one or two new songs aren't enough to satisfy those who have heard them a year ago, 2 years or 3 years ago. But still.. it's nice to see that they're active musicians and there's that tiny little bit of the uncertainty regarding the overall "feel" of the show.
At least they will be getting an excuse why they aren't preparing something from the archives for us to hear.

Before 20 or less year we were dreaming for Queen to go back on few concerts.
Now they are very achive, due to...
1) Despite the money Rock is always in their heart
2) All these tour it s Park of the record deals, is the policy of record industry to gain some big money, since the record sales are not what usedcars to be.

I don't care about their reasons.
Don't miss the tour is really worth it

If they adjust the concertlist, it good be so much better.
Adam is no Freddie, but you have to admit, the guy can sing. He for sure outperforms thatother guy.

You know what, I had a great time seeing them in 2012 I would definitely go again.
Although it better be a short bus ride from my house.

I wonder if they are really doing a new show... Would be great if they really did re-invent themselves. In 2014, who would've thought they would open with Procession/Now I'm Here, do Stone Cold Crazy, Lap Of The Gods etc?
MercurialFreddie · Member since
Exactly, 2014 Tour was in a way reminding people about the 70's, promoting the excellent but way too tinkered with Rainbow gig.... it was a very good year for us. Worrying thing is what Greg has stated in the "Queen in 3d book" thread, that as far as live releases for this year are concerned, nothing solid is proposed at that point...

If you compare the 2005 and 2008 Q+PR setlists, there weren't a ton of differences. But if you compare either of those to the Lambert setlists, there are a lot of differences:
Keep Yourself Alive, Seven Seas Of Rhye, Now I'm Here, Stone Cold Crazy, In The Lap Of The Gods Revisited, Somebody To Love, Don't Stop Me Now, Play The Game, The Hero, Who Wants To Live Forever
A lot of the hits weren't in Rodgers' powerhouse, but they do work for Lambert. But back then they had the Free/BC back catalog to fall back on, with the same core hit Queen songs in there.
This is what happens when you have 10-15 big hits - you're confined to them. They'll lose most people if they play more than 3 or 4 obscure songs. They're not Peter Gabriel or Rush - they can't play an hour of album tracks.
But this is not a recent phenomenon - Queen stopped being an album band in 1980, not ten years ago.

He may not work well with every song, but his Who Wants To Live Forever is just incredible. He nails it every. single. night.

^ Who Wants To Live Forever is spine chilling with his vocal. I personally just wish I was able to hear it with Fred, but alas, I was born a year after Fred passed, so that couldn't happen.
One thing though, I am quite happy with the new tour, I filmed most of the Saskatoon show on my iPhone in 2014, had no nice mics or anything, but there is like an hour long video I filmed.
This time around though, I'm going to get tickets and naturally, I shall be able to actually record this time. Which is nice. Though, not in Saskatoon, I will be almost certainly recording in Edmonton, where I reside now.
