Nope. Not at all. It's just some delay that probably happened in processing/uploading the video. There's about a 3 sec sync issue. If i were on something more than a mobile it'd be much clearer.
The video and audio are just out of sync

You know what.
UPON FURTHER REVIEW
1) WATCHING THE SCROLLING SCREEN as a timetable (*it never altered rhythm)
2) hearing audience testimonials (*last 5 seconds you hear "is the audio out of sync"? From a Napoleon Dynamite sounding guy.
3)
THEY MIMED THE PERFORMANCE! !!
HOLY SHIT!
YOU ARE CORRECT SIR!
i take it back.
Goddamm i want my $350 back from four tickets on the last Tour
Someone queued in that high note at the wrong time and the band continued out of sync and Brian looked disappointed and it turned awkward upon further review.
THEY MIMED IT!
BTW: IT really starts around 2:15 when he missed the cue into the high note. It was abrupt
Maybe someone deliberately did this in disgust.
My money would be on a tech who couldn't get a selfie or get to suck face with Adam.
Either that or Anita pulled some strings cause of the Brian story in the mail a week ago.
Maybe she pulled a "FACE IN THE CROWD" (Patricia Neal against Andy Griffith)
Dayumm!!! They've been caught in fakery! Someone DOWNLOAD IT NOW! ;)

No wonder as anything about QAL is fake and staged. They got busted!

Interesting to see an audience source for the glitch. I'd say it's a delay tower being a dick, but the crowd don't seem that far away.

It's a backing track being activated when it shouldn't have been is my opinion and it confused them and took a few seconds to realize what was happening and try to just sing around it. Up until that point the vid is just slightly out of sync by a second or so.

It's certainly curious.

They've used double tracking since Paul Rogers days, you'll be hard pressed to find a band which doesn't these days, especially an older group whose vocalists are getting a weaker voice. That's where you have a quieter prerecorded vocal just behind the live vocal in parts so it's not as noticeable if you miss a note or anything.
But this does look like Lambert is full on mining.

To be fair to him, I think he's the member that doesn't need to mime.

It's not a backing track they use it's a vocoder type thing that Spike uses (he explained about it in a video it's on Y/tube) where it doubles up the vocals for a fuller sound but live not recorded. This just looks like the track they would use for setting up all the lights, cue's and lasers etc was activated when obviously it shouldn't have been. There were issues getting the sound sorted at rehearsal and then the previous artist ran on longer and the stage was still being set up as Rami was introducing them, far different than their normal tour when they've plenty time to iron out everything and check the equipment properly. As Dysan said Adam's the last person to need lip sync.

I still think it's the Double track coming in too early and too loud and then staying out of sync.

It would be odd if they did whole tours without any miming and then chose to do it for one song in one concert. Doesn't make any sense. More likely a technical error.

Watch this and tell me it's a backing track because of Roger's "weak old vocals".

Okay people are confusing "Double tracking" (Having a faint prerecorded vocal which strengthens weak vocals in parts a performer struggles with, EQ'd in and out as needed and still needs the performer to sing)
with "a backing track" (Recording backing vocals and music, not needed here as there is a full band on stage)
and with "miming" (Miming to fully pre-recorded vocals).
I still think it's a double tracking error and i think this because this performance is short, so the vocals after the solo were queued in by hand, totally miss timed.
Honestly it's pretty standard these day to do this in spots, maybe Lambert finds it hard to get the right key for the "I'm burning through the sky" re introduction.

Roger isn't the one singing don't stop me now.

It appears to be the entire performance though - guitar / drums and vocal which makes me believe it's more likely to be a message from the future telling them to stop.
