Freddie rocked it. AL...not so much rocks much at all. Really you are asking if people liked that one better as in Freddie on a Queen board. Wow. You are really bloody clueless. Bloody stupid. Bloody shameless.
Careful now that pic of Freddie doesn't make you clutch your pearls, we all know what you think of Freddie wearing that, it bothers you for some reason. You are practically offended by Freddie wearing it.
You try to go for tit for tat from Freddie and Adam,and vice versa. You lose everytime. What do you want people to say, that they are shocked as you are regarding what Freddie once wore. Yes, it was ridiculous what Freddie wore at times but he wore it during Queen's shows, a big difference, since you can't tell. Q+AL shows are not Lambert shows. Freddie was pretty original in what he wore and how he performed, AL not so much. Hard truths for you, I know, there, there, go cry in your beer.
Freddie was and remains better in every way possible, since you "ask", rather want to flame...about Freddie of all people. Go away, SweetCaroline or at least come back with common sense. You have lost the plot ages ago, and you do it more and more with every post from you.

I love Freddie. Yes he's better than Adam and will always be my preference. He's also dead. It's ok to like Adam too. Imagine feeling the need to constantly tell people you hate Adam during a positive conversation about the current tour. We know you hate Adam...you tell us every day, every opportunity you get. Why not just let people discuss him and the band if they wish without bringing every conversation down?

You lose when you say Freddie dead, as if no one here doesn't know that. Seriously, does it make the people who say Freddie's dead to try to boost AL up, like to think it makes AL ook or be better? Because it doesn't, it's actually a piss poor way to discuss things.
Huh? I've not said athat any point in time that I hate AL, you must be be getting me mixed up with someone else. Seven posts in and someone thinks I hate AL, shocker.
If people want glowing things only, Adamtopia is the place for that. I've not even made many comments about this tour since it started, I've been to unwell to catch up. Not sure if I even want to catch up at this point. Not because I hate AL, because I don't feel up to it.
If I can't say Freddie was and always will be better than AL on a Queen board, without the stupid, weak comeback, oh Freddie's dead, yea that person loses any credit right then and there. Was I offensive about AL in my above post? No. Not sure where you get it from that I hate AL, especially n when it's something I never posted, and if you think so, feel free to search and point out where I did, good luck, you'll need it, it's simply not there.

That’s subjective, he might not “rock it” for some but that’s opinion not fact.

Freddie wore ridiculous costumes during Queen shows, Freddie was the singer/frontman of Queen and this isn't Queen as some people like to keep reminding us, these are Q+AL shows and Lambert is the singer/frontman of Q+AL, these are as much his shows as Brian & Roger’s and he’s free to wear whatever he wants. Were the Q+PR shows not as much Paul’s shows? Did he have to defer to Brian & Roger on what he wore on stage? Very much doubt it.

Well yes, I was giving my opinion, not relying on others to do it for me. SweetCaroline purposely tries to go for tit for tat about Freddie and AL, she's aditted to doing it.
Yes, Freddie at times wore ridiculous costumes, I said that. Want me to clutch my pearls about what Freddie wore and go OMG that is awful!!! That's the reaction SweetCaroline gave when she saw on one of Freddie's costumes funny enough.
Lambert is a guest, he says so himself. Sorry, not sorry I will never think of him as more than a guest.
Paul Rodgers didn't need or to rely on over the top costumes the way AL seems to. It was more of a rock show, and it was more about the music than Q+AL ever was and currently is.
All in my opinion ; -).

I don't care at all what Freddie or Adam wore/wear, it matters not IMO.

Yeah he's a guest singer as in not a replacement for Freddie but the shows are still Brian, Roger and Adam working together and he has input into the whole thing and what he wears is entirely his choice, they don't tell him what to wear at all and nor should they IMO.

Paul was an entirely different type of performer, no you wouldn't catch Paul wearing the kind of clothes either Freddie or Adam wore and that was his choice. Yeah it was more a rock show but Brian & Roger have both said Adam is a better fit in their opinion as they like the theatrical, camp, over the top production they're doing, doesn't have to suit everyone but it's their choice.

I disagree it was more about the music, anyone who's seen Adam live knows regardless of how much he likes to dress up, use props, act silly on stage etc he's first and foremost about the vocals, the rest is just for fun.

This is a Queen forum and this section of the Queen forum is for the Queen+AL project. I don't really know how hard that is to understand. If there's anywhere to post positive things about the current project...it's here.

You dont lose an argument when you say freddie is dead. It wasn't an attempt to make Adam look better, as i stated i prefer Freddie and he is better. It's ro highlight the the fact that other things are happening in the Queen world now. It doesn't mean the most important and best period loses any value...it just means you can still enjoy what is happening now.

My comment wasn't aimed directly at you..it was a general comment about a few people who post the same thing on here.

I know it's a Queen forum. Unlike some who use it as a place to promote Lambert at the drop of a hat.
I really wish people,e would not be so flippant when it's said Freddie's dead, not saying you are like that, but it's been done here. I think most of us know Freddie's passed away, but some of us know his legacy is living on, and it's not because Q+AL only, there lots of factors, even more recently the biopic.
All views are welcome here, I think there's very little rules here, but if anyone wants glowing things only, we'll since AL is bringing Queen music, he will be discussed, good, bad, in between...all sorts. I've even said I liked him singing certain Queen songs, but that wasn't good enough for some Glamberts here. Well one glamberts here would have everyone believe these shows are perfect, even when it wasn't.
I don't hate AL, I promise...like i said in another reply to you, I'm a bitch, but not a hateful bitch. I really like AL's solo songs from a year or so ago, damn that was his best song to date, IMO.

You really think that Lamebird is on the same level as Brian and ROger????? How delusional can you get???? Which songs are they playing from his catalogue this tour??? The one they played in the past was dropped as well as NOONE wants to hear his crappy solo stuff.

QPR was way different - it was a ROCK show with 3 legends on the same level and from the same generation. Three MUSICIANS- PR is a legend in its own right. Lamebird is an AI loser and not even a musician. He is a hired hand a vehicle to tour this Vegas glitzer cabaret nostalgia show

How much of an input does AL truly have for the shows? I'd like to know. For example does he have any say which songs are added...or dropped?
Some of AL's costumes...I did notice the top hat which to me is reminiscent of FYE. Like i ssy, I haven't been able to keep up with very much so far during this tour.
I did prefer Q+PR more than I do Q+AL, for many reasons. I think with the former, what you saw is what you got, and yes it was more about the music than Q+AL has been, or currently is? I will be honest with you now ( because I think I can be ) when Q+AL started, and I saw what I call "gimmicks", I thought it was too bad. Worst of all, was the coronet, man that well stung to be honest. Right away there were comments, that is the torch being passed to AL, it means all has replaced Freddie and now is the new singer of Queen, it was jarring, is how looked at it. The people who said that, I had to wonder if they were Queen and Freddie fans, because if they were, they should have known Freddie wasn't or isn't replaceable. Freddie and Queen's legacy has lived on for years before Q+AL. It will live on after Q+AL.

Ask her what she really thinks of Freddie wearing it. Funny she doesn't say. Because she's clutched her pearls about a few of Freddie's costumes, even bare chest and bare feet onstage.

I don't even consider it "ridiculous" which is a word that keeps getting bandied about in regards to Freddie's leotard/onesie costumes from 1976/1977. They are iconic and cool and he wore it well when he was young and slender.

Now...they WOULD have looked "ridiculous" 10 years later on the heavy/balding/mustachioed Freddie of the Magic Tour. Which reminds me...the leotard getup he wore on The Works tour was not a good look for him as he almost looked pot-bellied.

As I said before, the younger Freddie of the 1970's cut a striking image on stage. I really dug the biker with suspenders look from the Jazz Tour as well. He rarely did wrong with his looks back then...looked like the quintessential "Rock God", imo.

Freddie, Adam, Paul, Marc, George and Jeff — they are all unique in the way they have performed the Queen music. Of course, Freddie is the original and always will be. No one ever will or wants to take that away!

And only Freddie could get away with wearing that ridiculous but iconic geometric jumpsuit!

Where did I say on the same level?

They don't treat him as a hired hand in any way, he's part of the band as far as they're concerned (QAL being the band currently) and they don't tell him what to do or wear so in that sense they treat him as an equal and value his contribution. I've already said his music isn't really a fit with Queen and he's already said he doesn't want to include it in the shows aside from an odd one here and there.
