Sell out of the highest order. At least they're honest about this being nothing more than a cabaret act now. Shameful.

To save money, The Crown Jewels tagline that was used for a Queen box set a few years back, is being used for these shows, even the same font. Actually, it's very disappointing that its being used for anything to do with Q+AL. It wasn't the best idea, IMO. Too bad something original wasn't used, then again I'm not surprised, as it seems AL is fit in everywhere possible Brian and Roger, or the PTB can think of. Now that, I think is shameful.
And I'm not holding my breath that things will be that different set list wise. I'd like to be wrong, but rehearsals don't seem to be a piroity for the guys.

It's not really except they won't get the same political flak they got for that one. Can't see the problem with it, loads of big names are doing Vegas, it's no longer just a cabaret place. If it's good enough for guns n roses et al then why not QAL.

I can see the package deals now: accommodation, Killer Queen Vodka, bottle of Moet et Chandon, Queen Monopoly, Badger Backgammon, free Tattoo from Roger's Tattoo artist, Biba nail polish from Adam's collection ("Freddie would have loved it") and a a minister in Elvis drag will marry you whilst circled by naked girls on Bicycles. The Pepsi ad with Brittany, Pink and Beyonce will be the show opener.

That's brilliant ;-).
Don't Stop Them Now, because they created a Dragon Attack and an Invisible Man while realizing There Must Be More Than Life Than This In The World We Created..
At the place where A Kind Of Magic took over because Fun It was the name of The Game where the most important questions was asked Was It All Worth It in the name of For Your Entertainment.
A very Shady TwoFux was needed during A Time For Miracles to keep Runnin' from the Chinesse Touture where everyone ended up singing Friends Will Be Friends in the places called Barcelona and Ghost Town when the Night Comes Down for the Queenies and Glamberts.

They can save themselves... and I sincerely doubt they would do this, by playing homage to their 10 best known albums. 1 on each night. Not the whole album but a select
3-5 song medley... SHA, ANATO, ADATR, NOTW, Jazz, the game, the works, AKOM, the miracle and innuendo.
That would be the only tasteful way to turn this from sell out to a proper celebration and give better meaning to Crown Jewels.
Anyone asking why I left out queen and queen ii - I’m a reasonable man.

Also, I’m pretty confident there will be 4K blu-ray release of this. I also imagine this residency in addition to being a straightforward cash grab, is a way to plug the movie.

Well, obviously Brian and Roger don't feel that inserting AL into pretty much all of Queen's business is shameful, so it doesn't really matter what you think. After 6 years AL is part of the Queen family to the members of QAL and he is treated as such. All that matter is what Brian and Roger and the other guys think and they oviously think this will be a resounding success and that Queen Jewels is an awesome name. Why reinvent the wheel? All sorts of big names are hitting Vegas and I am sure it will be all sorts of fun for Brian, Roger, and Adam and for all the adoring fans that will get to see this show!

If I join the Queen Fan Club now, do you think I'll get a Fan Club Pre-Order link sent to me in the next 1.5 hours?
