Brian May replies to fans slagging off Adam Lambert.

I do not care what is going on around he globe but what i do care about is my favourite band getting trashed by some novice pub crooner who thinks he is gods gift and getting hyped by two desperate old men who once had the greatest front man in rock.

For heaven‘s sake, the only one trashing your favourite band is you.
You are constantly trashing what is left of them and what is one of the biggest, most successful and admired touring bands in the world. Your opinion might be valid, but you are throwing a bad light on Queen fans by throwing one tantrum after another like a thick headed toddler, whose favourite pacifier got lost. Get a grip, man.
Brian and Roger will keep on touring with Adam. You will never change anything about that. And for every fan, who isn’t interested in that collaboration are enough others, who are happy to even get a ticket.
There are more young fans than ever, it’s a great time to be a Queen fan. Who would have thought that 20 years ago?

Terrible

BHM: I know people would love to see us together and stuff, but it would have to be in the right way, not in some way which would spoil what went before.

RMT: Elton put it very well, he said, “You lot are like a fantastic racing car, sitting in the garage with no bloody driver”, which was a great analogy I thought, and very flattering; but you know, we’ll see.

I don't mind Adam. He can sing, of course, even if he's not the sort of artist I'd normally listen to (and it's not at all because of his sexuality, I don't care about that).

The point is, neither Roger nor Brian need my permission (or anyone else's, for that matter). People can diss Adam all they want, the fact is he's still more than good enough for the only two people who actually have a say in this.

And yes, in terms of singing Queen stuff on-stage for a full-length tour, Adam can do anything Frederick could, and more. Whether or not he wrote or co-wrote those songs or plays instruments or produces or was there in the trenches is completely irrelevant - they're not hiring him to pen the next 'Bo Rhap', they're hiring him to front and sing, which he does, to a sufficiently high standard that they keep hiring him and promoting him and praising him.

Should Adam ever read this forum, he's unlikely to resign. He's gonna wipe his tears with heaps of hundred-dollar, hundred-pound and hundred-euro notes he's rightfully getting for doing what he loves and doing it right enough that Brian and Roger seem to be satisfied and pleased with his work. While most (not all) of us have never met them and will never meet them, he gets to routinely perform with them, earn good money to do it, make them happy, make himself happy and make thousands of audience members happy.

Even if I hated him (I don't), I'm aware I'm not in a position to judge. He does what he does, does it well, and he deserves to be as famous as he is. He also deserves to be fronting Maylor, as they chose him. Considering they could've head-hunted virtually anybody in the world and they picked him, and considering how good musicians they both are, I think that's as high a compliment as anyone could aspire to. And he's earned it.[/QUOTE]

You are obviously talking utter crap, have you heard Lambert's thin shrieking voice, he is no showman far from it, and Brian will not shut up hyping him and this has been going on for 8 years now, if Lambert was as good as Brian says he is then nothing would be said as Lambert's voice would sell the tickets alone and not rely on the hype and overkill and May & Taylor to back him up still. Most audiences mainly go to the shows to see Brian & Roger and ignore Adam, but i think fans have a right to let Maylor know that they are disgusted with them picking a cheesy American idol singer as there lead singer what a shock and a huge let down. They still remain a laughing stock and we know they have lost the plot even if they are laughing all the way to the bank with idiots who still go to see them. Queen arguably where a real band 1971 to 1991 end off.[/QUOTE]

Engaging with you is a pointless task, but I'll still clarify:

You underestimate Lambert's fanbase, particularly in the US.

And plenty of Queen fans have walked away saying they liked Lambert.

And you need to deal with it and get on with your life.

We The Circle of Eidolon have read your attempt at wit and in it have witnessed you abundantly limited knowledge.

Skoda are part of the VW Audi group. The engines they produce power all three makes. Some quite fast models.

Your comment is out dated because you are unaware of most things that don't involve Freddie Mercury.

Again a lesson could be learnt here but, as with many times before, we feel that any learning is beyond where you choose to place your mind. . .

In these three quoted posts two people make 100 percent sense.

It almost doesn't need to be said that Inspired you as usual have made no sense in your blind mindless ranting which you seem to have the need to repeat endlessly.

Inspired you have failed yet again. . .

The Circle of Eidolon has spoken and yet again you walk down your lonely path unable to see what so many others do.

The circle of Eidolon: You need to be less confrontational and let people have there own opinions on here because as usual you are talking out of your arse.
The Real Wizard@ Do not waste your time reading my essential posts because you will get a nose bleed and need to sit down with a book on Adam Lambert showing his pussy and that may get you rather excited. He he he he

Um this whole thread is you confronting people because they have a different opinion to you. Just accept that we all get different feelings out of Queen and if they bring us happiness all points are valid. I'd say most people on these threads don't even really have a horse in the AL v FM race, they just accept that Queen 2019 is a very different beast to the one we fell in love with years ago especially considering the course of events that befell the band. It's almost like you derive your happiness from pushing people away which is most upsetting and making this place a one topic battlefield is most un-Queenified.
