Hahaha Glamtarts starting to backpaddle. The "Britney" example was done by me when the annyoing Ladyboyfans said "but they sell tickets". Now they come up with the same example saying that lametart is playing smaller audiences on his own so he must be more talented, How much more embarrassing can it get with them. Thank God this thing is over soon now and they are climb back under their Rock in their dreamworld for good. pathetic

I'm not backpedaling at all I've never said Adam fills arena's solo. He has a very loyal fan base, is extremely well thought of as an incredible vocalist by the industry but for whatever reason that doesn't translate into huge numbers of fans. Some people with little talent get huge numbers of followers for whatever reason, like Britney. That to me doesn't denote talent. There are tons of talented singers/bands out there, indie bands for example who don't fill arena's. If they don't get the radio play of say Taylor Swift or Ed Sheeran etc then they aren't going to build up a huge following since a lot of people will never hear of them. I'm sure most singers/bands would love to tour big arena's and stadiums, some achieve it some don't but so long as they can make a living doing what they love I consider that being successful. Maybe being a girl I don't have that my teams better than yours mentality, to me there's room for lots of people's talent and I don't really care about who gets the most instagram followers or likes or any of that fake BS.
I consider Adam lucky in that he gets to tour big arena's with Queen which he may or may not have done solo, no way to know since he pretty much put his solo stuff on hold to focus on Queen + but either way if he only tours smaller venues with his new album, so what, he'll still be happy. I saw Foreigner a couple of months ago at the Apollo Manchester, a lot smaller venue than the arena, 3500 capacity, but they are touring the world so to me they are successful, just not on a Katy Perry level and infinitely more talented.

Please tell me where the homophobic slurs where then?
i am not homophobic but i do not like seeing fully grown men looking like freaks. It sickens my stomach. We are the one s who have the patience of a saint for the last 10 years Lambert has been in our faces with his crap singing and mincey clothes.[/QUOTE]
[QUOTE] [b]happystar wrote:[/b]
Rockchic : If you think that is acceptable for Lambert to look like a freak then that is up to you but as you said earlier everyone laughs at him because he looks absolutely ridiculous.
You take him serious as a performer well that says more about you been very immature indeed.
Try discovering someone who has actual talent instead of looking like a muppet then you may get some respect on here.[/QUOTE]
Yeah, we Queen fans hate seeing fully grown men looking like freaks. How dare Queen pick ridiculous Muppets who everybody laughs at? They should get someone talented instead.

Before I get too many insults for calling Freddie ridiculous, hear it from the man himself at 4:00

Freddie made fun of himself while dressing like this. The ladyboy is completey fun - free. His stage manners are forced and he seems to take himself completely seriously especially when he is wearing the crown. Each time I see his shitface wearing it I wanna slap him for disrespecting Freddie. Sad jerk

Wow that was quite the collection of outfits and wasn't it Freddie who said - "I have fun with my clothes onstage, it's not a concert you're seeing it's a fashion show".
runner Adam doesn't take himself seriously and keep saying it won't make it any more true. Here straight from the horses mouth, or goat if you like

Raf: Freddie wore some of the outfits with tongue in cheek and he never took himself too serious but he was a brilliant singer and musician something Adam
lacks at the moment.
Mercury could afford to be what ever he wanted to be but the talent never took second best it was always in the front of fashion with Freddie.
Lambert puts clothes clothes before talent and it shows![/QUOTE]
Now that is completely untrue, Adam loves fashion and likes having fun with clothes but he takes his voice and the show very seriously. One of the things Brian & Roger like about working with him is his work ethic, in fact it's one thing that's always been mentioned about him.

Not only the Uk. He is virtually unknown except for the US where his star has also faded. Was a lil star due to AI. Noone gives a shit about him in QAL

Well we could debate this till the cows come home but i know Lambert has made no great impression on the UK sales market and he has flopped here with his solo career.
I think many people in the uk just do not connect with him.
He is a gimmick and staying with Queen is his biggest downfall because if his solo career was most important to him he would have pursued that rather than playing karaoke games with Queen. When time does come to go solo he will struggle like hell.
[/QUOTE]
People connect with him just fine when he's with QAL they love him, but his own music is likely not gonna be Queen fans taste and over here he gets virtually no radio play, very rarely appears on any shows unless with Brian & Roger so he isn't well known outside of the Queen thing. I've already said why he hasn't concentrated as much on his solo stuff but he will be after September no doubt. And I really don't see the UK as majorly important, there's a whole world out there and as long as he does well enough to tour with his solo stuff that's the important thing. He has enough fans over here to be able to tour, he toured his last album here.

You do talk some rubbish at times, you've read all the facebook comments from fans at the shows so you know that isn't true. And he's know all over not just the US, he had loads of fans in various countries even before QAL. He's not as well known in the UK, other than with Queen fans but there's still enough for him to tour here. Do stop making things up it makes you look daft.

In Europe he is completely unknown. QAL drawas tickets due to Maylor not because of the goat. Wonder where you got your infos about his success ==!!

I could say the same to you since you're completely wrong. He's popular in various European countries, he played Hamburg and Berlin solo in 2015, they seemed to love him at those shows. He's really popular in Australia and Asia. And no he isn't the draw at the Queen gigs. He has fans who go for him but there's loads of Queen fans who go, a lot for the first time and a lot who are dubious but come away won over.

At the Geran board there is a duscussion about QAL. NOINE, really NONE is ever saying "Lmabe-Bert blew me away". Most who liked it went away "it is great to see Maylor but AL is a strane choice". Thats why Lamebird will have to rethink if it was worth it o spend his time as a karaoke parrott for the last six years while his solo career went down the toilet even further. He even lost his record contract now during his QAL stint. Says it all.....

No idea what Geran board is and I daresay there's a few who think that but there's loads who don't. Evens itself out in the end and there's certainly enough interest in them to keep touring so I don't see them changing things anytime soon.
As to his solo career that's for him to worry about, and you've no idea about the record contract no one knows for sure what the situation is there and I'd say that's his problem to worry about as well.
Like happystar said we could debate this till the cows come home, won't change a thing so we'll just have to agree to differ on the subject and draw a line, especially since the tour's ended for the time being.
