I am really surprised that folks on here are still debating whether or not Adam deserves one lousy song in the 2 or more hour set list! All I can say is Unbelievable! No one seemed to have much of a problem with Rogers singing his Bad Co stuff and yet his music was nothing like Queen's music. To me it didn't belong in a Queen show and I don't care that he was a rock icon. To watch Rogers is like watching paint dry and that is not at all the Queen's vibe. At least Adam's music has more of a Queen vibe. He has now sung with them for 6 years and a couple hundred shows. Roger and Brian are respectful of Adam and cognizant of what he brings to the show and I am glad at least someone gives Adam his due, because it would be tough to tour without a lead singer! I would like to see them play Lucy, which is Adam's song that Brian played on. I think that song would be quite fitting and might satisfy some of you guys. Sometimes you have to just be nice to someone else and I think Adam deserves it at this point. That song would be a great compromise.

PR's music fit the classic rock/rock of Queens music very well, IMO. AL's music sticks out like a sore thumb pretty much. Brian and Roger playing TwoFux was pretty ghastly, IMO. It didn't make the song any better.
I think there are Queen songs that could and should be given a chance to be performed instead of sticking an AL song in there.
As AL has said he is only a guest singing Queen songs, and he has said he hasn't replaced Freddie, to me he doesn't "deserve" one of his songs to be performed. I wouldn't even want to hear Lucy to be honest at this point. There are so many more Queen songs, why not bring back It's Late...or even another Queen song that Q+AL hasn't done yet. I think Cool Cat could be...cool.

We will have to agree to disagree as I fully believe that Adam deserves one song for 3 or 4 minutes during a 120 minute or more set. There are Adam fans there also and perhaps quite a few more than some of you think. Brian mentioned all the signs for Adam in the audience and the tiaras, which he didn't think were there for him. Maybe someone needs to think about those fans, not just Queen fans, who are sounding like quite a selfish lot at this point.

Adam’s Two FUX was well received and fit in at the point in the show. You had to be there in person to know that!
Who are these people constantly bitching about the same old songs? They have done many songs besides the regular hits.
Bitch! Bitch! Bitch! Go away if you don’t like it and let the true, supportive fans discuss these amazing guys in peace!
You are not a fan if you are constantly bitching!

Just what the hell is your problem today/tonight? AL left or get dropped by Warner Bros or something? Something surely has you upset.
I still stand by Two stood out like a sore thumb. It did not flow well at all. Very out of place, IMO. GT was a little better...but I still would have put an actual Queen song in the set list before any of AL's songs.
Would you call rockchic not a real fan because of what she has posted? Doubtful, but she and I are at least civil to each other. Is that another issue for you today? It always comes back to you screeching about real fans or not. Very ironic coming from you. Every fricking tour you are like clockwork.
Go to an AL site and stay there, sweetcaroline where you can fantasize about the guy who is like a second son to you. Where you can spam, lust and obsses about AL all you want. You are awfully upset here today/tonight. I don't think Queen boards are the place for you. I'm not leaving or shutting up on your crazed ranting here. Not up to you for one thing. You must be pissed you can't get your own way.
Just wondering how many world clocks, streams, glowing press/articles/tweets, pics, rehashing, hissy fits you will be do during this tour? So early for you to throw hissy fits, and you start to bitch about 'real fans'. Seriously, I hope you are trollng sometimes, because if you are not a troll I feel really sorry for you that you are so bitter and that you feel you have to defend AL. You do a terrible job of defending him.
Today/tonight is proof of how you overreact. Let's not forget that you do your fair share of bitching at/about the people you don't like or agree with.

Never sng frm his solo career...more than enough. Brian and Roger couldn't even make TwoFux nto a good song. GT was good.
But there are so many more Queen songs that should be played nstead of AL solo songs. [/QUOTE]
I like some of Adam's solo stuff but not in a Queen show, the two don't go together for me, and like you say there's so many Queen songs they could include. He's been listening to Cool Cat & Tear it Up, could just be he likes them or maybe learning the lyrics. Guess we'll find out tomorrow if there's any changes.

Just to clarify, I love Adam to bits and it's not that I don't think he deserves a song in the show at all but I have a few reasons for saying what I did.
Even though quite a lot of Adam's fans go to the shows I do think the audience is predominantly Queen fans, Adam even said that in the interview someone posted earlier and I doubt many of them know any of his songs. I think Lucy would have been a good one to do if they were adding one in, I've talked on facebook to a couple of Queen fans who don't like Adam but they're still familiar with that one because of Brian so there's a chance some of the Queen audience would know it. Even though Paul's music is nothing like Queen's I do think a lot of Queen fans would know it, he's from the same era and if you like Rock you would likely know some of his more well known songs even if not particularly a fan. My other reason is that I love Queen songs, they're my number one favourite band and whilst I like some of Adam's songs it's his voice I love most which is why I love him doing covers so much, so selfishly I get my favourite music done live with Adam. There's loads of Queen's songs I'd love to hear him do, purely selfish reasons on my part really.
Tbh from listening to him in interviews I get the impression that he's happy with just one song, I think he feels it's a nice gesture but he doesn't seem to want to make it more of a Queen/Adam set like they did with Paul. I know from things they've all said at times they've offered to put more of his songs in and he's always said no. If his new songs go more in the Rock direction and Queen fans who now know of him like the stuff he does I could see them adding more of those in, but not the stuff he's previously done. Just my take on things, sorry that was a bit long winded.

Well said, rockchic65! I don’t think Adam expected any of his songs to be included and was pleasantly surprised when they wanted to rock “Ghost Town” at Rock In Rio!

Snifflese what the heck are you smoking? Lamebords music has sth in common with Queens music???? I never thought of Queen as a lame Eurodance bullshit combo cause thats what lamefarts music is: Annoying, lame, boring manufactured like the tool himself.
The BC songs were the highlight of the QPR tour. I doubt Two Fux was the highlight of the QAL tour cause everyone hates this song as it is one of the worst songs ever written (not even by the goat himself as he cannot even write a shit song like this).They are touring this lame nostalgia show for way too long but as long as the $$ roll in they dont care. In Cologne tickets were priced for 35 € as they did not sell at all. Berlin the same. Hamburg as well. Every categaorxy widely available. People start to think that this shit show is not worth 120 Euro.They wont even do concerts in France as the French hate QAL ( rightly so).
They have gone past the embarrassment point for years now. A sad bad cover band including some ex Queen members.

Well why don't you drift over to a Bad Company forum then since you seem to like them much better than Queen. If BC songs were the highlight, they could use a tool like you posting over there, because I am sick and tired of you after only a day or two. Rogers had nothing in common with Queen. It was very generic rock with a voice that had no special qualities about it. Sorry, he fit Queen like a square peg in a round hole. The videos I have watched were awful and Iknow the tours were not well received. Every review that I have read references QPR as a mistake and a terrible fit. You don't ever bother with the truth, so when did that stop you?
If you don't like QAL that is your perogative, but we don't need to read your childish nonsense. Your habit of calling Adam names is about on the same level as the average 8 year old. That is how you come across. Grownups don't behave like that!

It never seizes to amaze me how some Queenfans can still act like a bunch of spoiled brats and basically bully people on a forum where everyone is in the same team. And don't get me started on the homophobia and lack of acceptance. Get a fucking life negative creeps.

Paul had things in common with Queen. Most importantly, the music which for both, remain staples on classic rock radio stations.
It doesn't surprise me you think P.R was so awful.
How much do you know about P.R?

Snifflese you are just a sad fuckwhit. Rodgers (not Rogers you idiot) had far more in common than your prick idol you lust for destroying Queen songs every night. They came from the same Generation. Legends in their on right , same age. Lamebird is a euro
Dance wanker, cannot write a tune to save his life, is mocking Freddie and is a generic manufactured karaoke parrott. Now you wanna tell me he is fitting Queen???? Keep on doin the drugs you obviously consume-noone sober can write such bullcrap like you.
