Hoping for Liar or White Queen this time around. Hell, I'd even take Great King Rat or Father to Son. Maybe Nevermore?

Would love them to do White Queen and Nevermore but I suspect I could die holding my breath tbh. Probably half the audience would never have heard of them so I can see why they might not do deep cuts though.

I still say singing the verses of Bohemian Rhapsody out of order is NOT as egregious as a multi Grammy winner stopping in a TV awards performance on two separate occasions and starting over. Now we will have 3 more pages from you know who why THAT was fine but what Adam did by professionally covering up was unforgivable and due to a lack of rehearsals!

I would enjoy a new song or an old one like Now I"m here, I Was Born to Love You or Save Me, something that they haven't sung for a while. Rehearsing a previously sung song shouldn't be too time intensive and a new one shouldn't be that hard either. Maybe they are practicing and we just don't know it as not everything is known to the general public.

I am not sure that more practice would save a flub like BR. Maybe you are different, but once I make a mistake, like someone's name, I am more likely than not, to do it again. My son had a teacher, Mrs. Small and I often called her Mrs. Little! It was really hard to get it right and normally such things are not a problem for me.

Singers and musicians make mistakes and most folks aren't too riled up about it. I don't see why Adam would ever have to explain what happened. It isn't our business and he may not even really know. In the big scheme that was a tiny, tiny flaw when you consider all the hundreds of hours of performing and singing. Nobody is perfect at the end of the day. If Freddie could mess up his own music, I am sure Adam might occasionally also mess up someone else's songs. I know he has flubbed a few things on his songs occasionally. No biggie!! I doubt most people even notice!

I'd really like it if Save Me was performed again. I'd really love it if DOOL was performed again. In short, I'd be all for it.
It seemed AL flubbed the lyrics at the same place in the song, three nights in a row, so something was up.
Yes, every musician make mistakes. And hey, I noticed AL messing it up because Bohemian Rhapsody is an important song in the Queen catalogue.

I don't think you could even try to understand the emotion performers can have. It's no surprise it was emotional for her to do, and I'm not holding it against Adele for how she did it. She was very heartfelt and she pulled it off.
I'm not sure why that bothers you about Adele and my feelings about it, because you don't like Adele, and you aren't a George Michael fan. Then again, you obviously wanted AL to sing the tributes to George Michael and Bowie, your reaction when he didn't get to do it, is all too clear.

It may surprise you, but Lambert flubbs lyrics like every other singer does. Just listen to his performance in Rock in Rio 2015. I watched that show in the middle of the night online and still remember it. I think he had often problems with IWIA, DSMN, TSMGO and WWRY. Another fan told me once, that he attended a Q+AL show in Asia 2016 (?). And he hated Lambert for almost „destroying“ his favorite song TSMGO. I watched it on YT later and he was right.
BUT:
Nobody here ever really gave a shit about it.
I think it‘s rather telling, that people on here only talk about the mistake on one tour in BoRhap.

My interpretation: You either don‘t know the other songs well and thus didn‘t notice the mistakes or you don‘t watch the recordings and only want to criticize.

From personal experiences as a performer and from many , many concerts: It‘s completely human and normal, that these mistakes happen. If they happen in your favorite song, that‘s personal bad luck. ;-)

Nope, the George Michael tribute wasn’t the only time she had to start over:

So stop picking on Adam! Dammit (as Adele would say, only worse)!

How the heck am I picking on Adam? It's a fact he messed up the lyrics three nights in a row. You are so quick to bring up Adele because? She had to start over, and why that bothers you because you don't like her, obviously.
Stop being a wannabe mother hen to AL. Seriously, the way you act, you wouldn't know if I'm being offensive in what I'm saying about AL.

Bohemian Rhapsody stands out to me the most because it's my favorite Queen song. Actually, it's my favorite song ever.
I watched Rio too. In fact I posted screen caps from the concert as it was happening on QOL as I was watching. So I did watch, believe it or not.
I know many performers screw up. Even Freddie. Look at sweetcaroline posting the Adele vids tit for tat, I suppose. I'm not denying anyone has never screwed up. I think it's a shame AL screwed up Bohemian Rhapsody...that's all.

I'm a big Queen fan. I know the other songs pretty well. Can you imagine if I posted about the other mistakes AL made? I speak about one song in particular here, as it's the most recent one he messed up. But thanks for the dig that you interpet that I don't know the other songs well enough. Want me to post about where he messed up Save Me?
