It has just come to my attention that there has been some internal conflict with management that the band are considering christening Adam Lambert to be confirmed as a permanent member of Queen. The source refuses to corroborate the identity of the report but says some staff have threatened to tender resignations immediately. Supposedly this is at the behest of the record company (Island) which would feel that it is in the label's best interest to release upcoming collaboration material without financial dispute with Adam's primary label, Warner Bros.
Again I cannot confirm or deny the authenticity of what I have heard but I will provide updates to the forum if/whenever something new is revealed.

It's not April Fools' Day, is it?
Most tantrums are not fair game, but in the instance this becomes fact and not fiction, I’d take exception. But first I’ll take this with a grain of salt.
Good on him and the Band as long as they continue making Music thats Great , I must admit the following is ridiculous
.
"The source refuses to corroborate the identity of the report but says some staff have threatened to tender resignations immediately".....what a load of Crap! ..Queen is a Business why would you want to leave? crazy if you did..what a joke!

Even though there’s not a shred of evidence to support this claim, the guiding principles that would drive such a decision are real. Last week, Atlantic Records just signed a teenage girl that got famous by disrespecting her mother on a talk show. Not a second of experience in the music industry - apparently money sings louder than lyrics.
Back on topic: I couldn’t see this going well with even the casual fans.

Even if for financial and contractual reasons they did this behind the scenes, there’s no reason at all why they would want to then publicly drop the “+ Adam Lambert” from the billing. Even Adam gets his name up every time that way, whereas just being labelled as ‘Queen’ sees him become invisible to the public.
I came here for Queen Anthologies. I don't know what I expected.
Just when you thought the circus couldn't get any more embarrassing. Jesus Christ.

I'm gonna let this one slide. XD
Something like this has to be agreed by all Queen members.
I believe John would totally reject this idea at all.

Considering "The Cosmos Rocks" exists, I really don't think Deaky has any say about most everything these days, and if he does, they don't listen to him.
If it was going to happen,im sure it would already! This im sure, will be the last tour,as Roger has hinted. Age has caught up with our heros!

He even resigned from Queen Films last year...
OP's first post...obviously a wind up. The kind of thing Greg would do to amuse himself, I suspect
Exactly.
