Queen fans are well aware of what he wore and his bare feet right there. What's your point?
My point is don’t call Adam a drag act!

So, about the only time you post a video of Queen/Freddie is for you to say don't call AL a drag act? As if Freddie was wearing drag in that video you posted? Come on, you could at least have posted the Break Free video. But no, same old same old comment by you about Freddie's white shorts, and now Freddie was barefoot...as if that proves anything.
You have no point at at all. More people than Freddie wore short shorts and went barefoot even onstage, but you act as he was the only person who did it, and behaving like you are horrified by it.
You are butthurt by a comment someone posted that mentioned AL and a drag act, even with you knowing that AL dressed in drag. Flash said nothing offensive in the post above, just in case you need that pointed out to you, yet you are somehow insulted by it.
Someone just tweeted this video from the Q104 Christmas Show — I was there!

Yup I'd go see Brian or Roger on a solo tour, with respect it's not AL that's pulling those huge crowds it's the name Queen and those incredible songs which everybody sings.
You cannot go anywhere on the planet with out hearing the voice of Freddie singing even after all these years you would think he was still alive. I'm not bashing Lambert he would be far better if he toned the drag act crap down... he's fronting the biggest "rock" band on the planet not the Scissor Sisters.
I'm not so sure, I think AL has a lot to do with the success of this. They are now touring at the level they did with Freddie, and selling more tickets per venue ( in the states) than they were doing in 1982.
The AL fronted Queen is vastly more successful than the Paul Rodgers line up. Leading up to 2012 the interest worldwide in Queen had levelled out. By 2014 people were talking about them again a lot more than they had don for quite a few years. The current interest is tied into the Film but that ball had begun to roll a couple of years ago.
Their live success is more than just the songs, it's the undeniable chemistry they have between them and the ability to put n a great show.
VH That is your personal opinion, you are deluded if you think AL can actually pull of the concert of the century and make Queen more popular than Freddie ever did.
May & co cant have that much confidence in Lambert because they are shit scared to go into a recording studio with him.
They know it would flop big time.
Lambert is making his living from Freddie's music and Queens and he knows his own solo material is crap because he was on Strictly last week singing " We are the champions" what is wrong with his own material if he is so good then?

Iron Butterfly Those pics of AL in drag where really scary, and he certainly has an identity crisis going on there!
Haha!
A bunch of people, who know next to nothing about Adam, found some pictures. Did it scare you?
Should I put pictures of Queen in drag beside these? I bet, you know these, do’s no need, I guess. These pictures of Adam are to be taken as seriously as the ones of Queen. It was for fun.
As explanation for those, who are interested in the background and aren’t here to make fun of Adam:
The pictures were taken at a party, where every guest appeared in drag. That was more than 10 years ago, before Adam became famous. He went there with his boyfriend, who talked him into it. Both were there in drag.
Adam said, he did drag about 2-3 times in his life, but isn’t into it and hadn’t done it for years.
Unfortunately for some of you, ;)
the probability of seeing Adam in drag again is close to zero.

Firstly I can't see where VH said he could make Queen more popular than Freddie, that clearly wouldn't be the case.
They don't go into the recording studio mainly because Adam prefers to make solo music. Think about it logically, he's half their age, if they were all around 36 it would make sense, they could be a proper recording/touring band and build something together but with the best will in the world Bri & Roger can't continue that much longer so Adam has to consider what happens after they are no longer able to tour. He's got an album waiting to be released what would be the point of doing one with Bri & Roger as well plus how many "Queen fans" would want to go to their shows to hear a new album rather than Queen classics? Unless they managed to pull off an album worth of amazing songs, and even Queen albums had a few duds so what's the odds on that without Freddie, they would still end up playing mostly Queen hits, seems little point to me considering there's little money to be made for a lot of effort.
He had no choice on strictly, the theme was musicals so unless he had recorded something that was used in one (he hasn't) he had to stick to the theme.
That photo was from before he even went on Idol. He's not into drag but has dressed up a couple of times back then for fun at an event, one where it was strictly people who aren't drag queens copying them. He hasn't done it since then despite a few of you keep calling what he wears on Queen shows drag (it's not).

That was at a drag party in Hollywood. No drag - no entrance. All for fun!
God help us all when he is fronting the worlds biggest rock band and he goes around looking weird !
Rockchic Sorry but your talking rubbish, Lambert could have sang anything from a musical it did not have to be Queen music.
As for them been different ages again age has nothing to do with recording music, they all tour and make music, so the truth is May is shit scared of flopping recording with Lambert.

I would bet, Adam was invited to the show as Queen‘s singer and therefore had to sing a song from the musical WWRY. The show invited him and that usually includes traveling costs ect. They would not get Adam all the way from LA to let him sing Phantom of the Opera for instance. lnstead they would have invited a singer from the UK.

You said his own music is crap and that's why he sang Queen, I pointed out he had to sing someone else's music since he doesn't have any that's been in a musical. Yes he could have sung something from any musical but since he's fronting Queen + and the movie was just out and they were about to announce a tour it was logical to do that one for promotion.
No idea when they would find time to record even if they all wanted to, Adam's been busy doing his own album plus various projects, Brian is tied up between touring with all his Astronomy and animal charity projects, there's really only Roger who probably has the free time.
If you actually are interested in knowing the likely reason they don't record together there's a couple of articles where they talk about it. If you scroll down to just below the picture of Adam and Brian in the first one there's a couple of interesting paragraphs about it.
