There all in it for the money that is a definate.

Well I know I don't live their lifestyle so I may be wrong but I can't imagine needing to have more than $175 million and that's not including what they'll get for the tours this year. Can't see any reason to tour if you don't want to with that kind of worth. Maybe it's just possible they actually have fun and enjoy what they do.

So what? As long as the audience is having a good time and getting their money’s worth no one is being harmed! As Brian said in the recent Classic Rock article: it is “just out of this world!”

Yup really out of this world. Most embarrassing collaboration ever. He is spot on

Well the reason i have never attended a Queen show since 1986 is because you get the feeling something crucial is missing.
I would feel terribly disappointed and ripped off.
Many of the old fans aged around 50+ would feel like myself as they grow up supporting Freddie & the band.
To shun the old fans like Queen have is in my opinion shameful yet they expect all support when they release anything.
Queen do not need Adam to keep the band alive because there is umpteen Queen tribute bands around the world doing it every night, The Beatles never hunted for a john Lennon replacement as they had more sense. Queen now look cheap and tacky and you may as well kiss that legacy bye bye as Adam has screwed that up big time.

Bit confused how they've shunned anyone? They need a fronman if they are to continue touring, obviously they could have just retired (which they didn't want to do) or carried on with solo projects and Roger still does that in between tours but maybe they wanted to play together. Why would they want to stop realistically if they can still have people coming to see them, they clearly love what they do, musicians generally don't play because they have to it's a passion and actually I don't think they expect anything, they just do what they do and it's up to the individual if they choose to buy things or support them.
Not expecting you to go to a show, clearly it's not your thing but there's loads of our age group who do go to these shows and lots have seen Freddie live as well. It's not for everyone but there's no way it's done any harm to their legacy, it's just another chapter in their career.

I think Brian and Roger were ready to sign Adam on the dotted line on May 20, 2009 after the Idol Finale they were so excited about him. But they took their time and didn’t rush into something they might regret later. When Adam survived in front of 250,000 cheering people in Kiev Square 3 years later, that was a pretty good test.

What can you expect from 250.000 drunk Russians. They even tolerate a Goat on vocals.

Lambert Will never be as good as Freddie Mercury wowing the worlds stadiums. Second rate pretender.

6 guys on stage where 3 are completely unknown and not even in the spotlight. The is the Maylor Ego Show. The Movie will be the same. Bigging their ego up. [/QUOTE]
Don't comment on subjects you have no knowledge of. It makes you appear even more stupid than you already are.
It is well documented who Spike is and his long running job as keys player for both Queen and Brian May (in the past)
Neil gets a spot in the show where he stands front and centre, spot lit.
Tyler plays Roger's kit, providing the second drummer part in the drum battle, during which towards the end I was given free rein to play what he wanted to play, again under his own spot light.
Each of these three are also given a big intro by Roger during the show, but hey even though you and nappy star haven't been to a show you should both feel free to impart your wisdom

QAL is the most beautiful production out there right now! A marvelous tribute to the 47 year Queen legacy!

Utter drivel ridiculing a band that was great until 1991 and making em a laughing stock in the music biz

It doesn't top the Tribute in 1992. Not only was that a tribute to Freddie, but the whole band and their legacy.
Q+AL is hardly like that, IMO.

QAL is a tribute to Queen when it comes to satire. Noone takes this crap serious
