Lets just say Lambert is not worthy of been in a band like Queen.
Each Queen member is multi talented and proved there place in the band, on the other hand Lambert just sings the songs like a night on the town and like many other tribute singers,
he is hardly original or special.[/QUOTE]
Not Brian & Roger's opinion of him, they take his views seriously and he does a lot more than just sing the songs like a tribute act. He might joke around but he takes what he's doing seriously and he has input into the show, he doesn't just turn up to sing. Yeah Freddie was multi talented, he played instruments and wrote some amazing music, no one's taking that away from him but for the current situation Adam is more than worthy of the job he's doing, which doesn't involve him having to play instruments or write Queen music. And I've no idea what kind of Tranny's you've seen but nothing he's worn onstage with Queen would qualify as a Tranny outfit. Last I checked he's never worn women's clothes onstage.

Well at least you have to give credit to his clothes: He is wearing butcher's clothes at the beginning of the show. Pretty fitting as he butchers Queen songs for the next 2 hrs. At least I can finally say sth positive about him
Vocal Harmony - last tme I checked SPike was never an official QUeen member so your point of having 3 original members on stage is silly

Well if we're being pedantic 2 original members and one honorary member.
happystar makes no sense to argue with clueless Lametards about a certain group that stopped in 1991 does it?

Spike was only considered a stand in musician and i think he was rarely seen on stage, apart from a guest appearance when "Hammer to Fall" was played.[/QUOTE]
I think they consider him more than a stand in musician, certainly now since he's musical director and he's been in both their solo projects as well. He's often named as the unofficial fifth band member.

Read my post again. I said the 84-86 LIVE band. . . Musicians that played live in the band NOT the original four recording members. So yeah there are three people on stage playing in the same way they have since 1984. That simple enough to understand isn't it?
When you watch all of Brians selfie stick videos, it becomes clear that a lot of people at the front row (not all) are either Lambert fans, or people that have heard Greatest Hits 1 and became hooked.

What exactly are you seeing to come to that conclusion?
So, what is wrong with Adam's fans? Interesting because some people say he doesn't have many and they are all young girls (totally wrong as he has a lot of older gals and they have money to buy those front row seats!). At my two shows in Connecticut there were a lot of Adam fans and, of course, a ton of Queen fans. But many were like me who had always loved Queen and then loved Adam!
As far as getting hooked on the Greatest hits, that would be a good thing! You want new fans who are going to purchase more music and follow the band. I think QAL has introduced music to many new people including parents who bring their older children. The more fans, the better!! People have to hear the music to fall in love with it and not all of the younger generation are that aware of Queen, so this is a good thing!
....and fails miserably by doing so. Sent him to the desert with a oneway ticket.
And there you have the views of two people who have never been to a show so obviously they are, our of everyone, best place to accurately comment on what the gigs are really like.

So still touring after six years with them is a failure? Hmm, strange idea of failure you have there.
Go enjoy your videos and your youtubes of Freddie, Just quit telling us about it. What I meant by parents and kids was that the parents (who DO know Queen) are now bringing their kids who will hopefully like Queen and become fans. It s really stupid to say that QAL touring does not bring in new fans. We certainly wouldn't want Adam to get any credit now, would we? But due to their touring and new people hearing them at a concert, new fans are being created. It has nothing to do with Queen being bigger than Adam, but now the promotion through a tour expands the number of people who hear Queen's music. You can't tell me that Queen is not gaining new fans through their collaboration. They wouldn't be touring without Adam, so he is a part of Queen's new Renaissance. I m not sure why that is such a stickler for some of you people. It would be the same effect no matter who was singing. You sing for millions of people over 6 years and you can't tell me that the music isn't creating new fans who go on to buy some of Queen's older music. To think that this is not the case is just plain DUMB!!!
