His only tolerable song. The singing destroys it nonetheless. The PINK Version kills his crap version

Yep, you sure know what the significance the 24th of November is, SweetCaroline.
No, I don't think so. Not for a second.

Ppl like sweet caroline were what made the 2014 show in the pit, absolutely dreadful.

They encouraged everything Lambert did, even wailing regular words. It was terrible. They didn't know Queen material either....and it was a pitiful feeling to see my heroes on stage playing to this disrespectful ignorant lot.

That's why i enjoyed the NOTW early shows so much. They actually threw the rock and roll at you.

It was fantastic. I sung my arse off like a true fan and enjoyed it.

I wasn't there to marvel at fatty's boots

This was the quote that really caught my attention.

I hope Matt Z can come back and expand on this. Does "the pit" mean near the front of the stage"? I'm assuming this in the States(California)? How could you tell they didn't know the Queen material...wasnt it mainly the same "greatest hits" set?

Also, when you talk about the "NOTW shows" you're meaning the 2017 tour?

I'm sincerely curious about the crowd reaction/ response at your show to both the songs/material and the presence of Brian and Roger. For example, were there loud cheers for them or mainly just AL?

Lastly, was your show full/ near sellout?

Imagine SweetCaroline in the pit? Oh my God, granny.

I wonder what “wailing regular words” means! LOL

Probably when you tell Adam to scream.

Yeah...I'm guessing it meant screaming when he was just talking but I've never come across that particular wording before.

Lame Bert can't sing for shit...and as an entertainer he's even worse. Pathetic camp behaviour that makes every true hardcore Queen fan cringe.
He sucks balls big time... (or has a great time sucking big balls….whatever… I couldn't give 2 shits less)

And then those Waldorf and Statler figures that May en Taylor have become, make the whole thing even more pathetic..
2 old men trying to rock and look cool, serving as a backing band for a bad karaoke singer.
Queen was QUEEN until 24th november 1991...then it went downhill and in the last 10 years or so it got realy, really REALLY pathetic.
As James Hetfield once sang: "SAD BUT TRUE !!"
