MM is a coverband singer nothing more and nothing less. SO I want him with Maylor? No. He is great on his own. QAL is pretending that they are still Queen which they are clearly not. They try to be the real deal but they are a lame parody of a once great band. And they have a powerles twat on vocals who looks ridiculous and sounds atrocious. A C-lebrity (I would vote for "D")
Queen was Freddie John Roger and Brian. Why keep calling yourself QUeen when it clearly isn't. Just to sell tix and spit on their legacy by doing so. If they toured under "2 old farts and a twat " (which would be more than fitting) they would play to small clubs
why do you keep coming up with this inane drivel? The only old fart around here is you! Brian and Roger are out enjoying life and doing something besides criticizing everyone and everything. I don't know how you can live with yourself. If you are a real Queen, I want no part of it!
QAL isn't Queen and none of us maintain that, but it is the newest configuration of the group and that is what we can enjoy live at this point in time. For the umpteenth time Icy, I don't need to know what color ballet slippers Freddie wore or when he might have have taken off the crown in what particular show. I could give a crap and if you think that makes you a great fan, that is inane and crazy. Normal fans can sit back and enjoy and know the basics, just like Rockchic has also stated. If I have listened to them since the 1970's, bought their music and enjoyed them, that is all I need to do. There were no streams, etc back then to become so intimate with bands like nowadays. And some of us had very busy lives and no time to ever have sat and listened anyway. You sure take a lot on yourself to proclaim who is and isn't a fan, but that is what you people do and why I find the real Queen fans such a nasty lot. Showing your true colors again. I have stated a number of things about Adam that I am not into, so I don't think I
(hit the wrong thing with my splinted finger, sorry!) quite fit the def. of sparkle cow. I don't wholeheartedly think everything about Adam is super duper. He has made quite a few missteps and his own music is not always my cup of tea. Nor do I follow him socially, care who he hangs out with, what he wears, his house or what plane he is on. I don't post at ATOP or go on and on anywhere about how wonderful he is (kind of like you do on here with Freddie). I just think he is one of the best singers in the world right now and his voice resonates with me. I would rather listen to him than anyone and I wish he had done an album of covers! It doesn't bother me that he doesn't play an instrument or write music. All I want is to listen to that wonderful voice, which is his gift. I also like him best singing my fav band's music. I post here because it bugs me how he gets run thru the ringer over everything and I feel I have to say something. Sparkle cow, no, big fan of the voice, YES!
Adam is very Euro vision cheese and how can anyone take him seriously, he still looks like a talent show reject.
Freddie's roadie even said Adam is cabaret broad way but a bad fit for Queen, so Brian never spoke to him again after that!
I have my own informed opinions and don't need others to help me make them. I wouldn't say the Freddie's roadie would be a neutral source, probably going to be very biased actually. I don't like some things and you don't either. But I don't go around and slander that person and say horrible things to people who think otherwise. I can understand why some Queen fans wouldn't like QAL. But the things that are said about it are truly ugly. It goes way beyond not liking QAL.
Well, you would recognize ugly, since you are the ugliest creature I have ever had the misfortune to read on a forum. Calling me names is just what I was talking about. You can't help yourself, can you?I wish there was a way to permanently delete you on this forum. Just the fact that this is allowed on a Queen forum tells me quite a bit about real Queen fans. You proved me point just as you always do.
So going by this forum, there must only about 20 real Queen fans as your sample base
But if indeed this is enough to form your opinion, why are you posting on the forum . Is it to share objective opinions or to continue a pointless debate about Adam Lambert.
AL will just be a footnote in Queens history that’s all. He also isn’t going to have a major solo career. At 37 he is already well beyond an age most pop/rock artists have produced their best work. I have nothing against the guy but you must know that.
And the Queen roadie in question is no sycophant. I don’t even think he liked the bands music initially and also didn’t part on the best of terms. He calls things as he sees them.
