Adam can’t sell his own music, so how the fuck do his worshippers contribute to Queen sales?
They don’t.

Rubbish, Adam takes his solo career very serious, saying it's a part time hobby is ridiculous and he's noticed plenty with and without Queen, you do spout some nonsense at times.
Tell you how much he's noticed - if SC had posted all the birthday messages from news outlets, radio stations, arena's all over the world etc she'd still be posting and the thread would be pages and pages long lol. [/QUOTE]
And his latest releases flopped... like the previously releases. Do not blame the digital age, Adam has 200 people ahead of him who have actually sold music.
Don't say, "Oh, he's indie!" because that only works for those who start indie. Adam has had more promotion on his shit than most. People just got tired of his generic bullshit.
Adam Worshippers didn't contribute to much Queen sales... he can't even create a hit himself. Anything Queen does, it's a hit =) Adam's auxiliary in Queen terms![/QUOTE]
I couldn't care less if he has what you class as a "hit", he's gone indie to be able to make the music he want's as opposed to being told what to do and if he's happy then that's what matters. As to generic bullshit his new music isn't which is again my point of why he went indie.
Really not interested in how many of his worshippers bought Queen music either, that was zero to do with my reply to ST17 I was simply pointing out that regardless of chart success etc Adam is passionate about what he's doing solo, this time more than ever because it's his baby and totally in his control.

Adam’s on an indie label because he was dropped by every label he’s been on!

The world has increased by over 3 bilion people since Freddie died, and Adam's solo sales are less now than Freddie's were 35 years ago. FAIL. You'd think more people would be more interest, BUT NO. Adam's solo, generic bullshit, can't sell. When he was an American idol contestant, it sold due to an interest. Now? No! FLIPPITY-FLOPITY! After he was kicked off his last labels... done, done, done. He tours with Queen for the money. If he had the money, he wouldn't tour at all. He doesn't even tour his shit solo generic music.

Some barely can be bothered with or about Queen even on Queen boards, so I doubt many Glamberts up Queen's music.

I disagree about the generic part, you might not like it but it's very different from his EDM/overprocessed music and has real instruments as opposed to computerised stuff (that's my definition of generic).
Queen aren't indie, what a ridiculous comment, they were with EMI etc and are now part of Universal etc that's hardly indie. No idea why you keep banging on about it anyway, Adam's solo career has zero to do with him singing with Brian & Roger.

More bullshit, you're on a roll again today, must be the success of the tour getting to you lol.
RCA didn't drop him and anyone with half a brain knows that. I won't argue about Warner, no idea of the exact ins and out's of that but there's one thing for sure, Adam hates being told what to do and the way things went down point's to him not giving in on some issue so they may well have dropped him but I'd say good on him for standing his ground if that's the case.

I think AL's solo career has at least some things to with Brian and Roger. He spends more time touring with Brian and Roger, for one thing than his own music, and sometimes anot AL so.on song is incl in Q+AL shows and AL has said he's influenced by Queen. Lines are blurred many times, even now, apparently a single while he's tour with Brian and Roger. There you go.

Adam is a solo artist, spends quite a bit of time touring with Brian & Roger and has to fit his own career in with the QAL stuff. Yeah they do the odd song of his on some tours (as opposed to doing a lot of Paul's), they offered, Adam refused, and this tour so far none of Adam's, he doesn't need to throw loads of his songs into the tours, that's not what it's about for him and he doesn't feel it's appropriate. He's influenced by lots of music, music is his life and his playlist is crazy, lots of styles so of course some will influence his music style at different times.
Why shouldn't he put a single out at this time, he's gearing up to release the album after the Aus/NZ QAL tour finishes and want's to release a single or two prior to that, if he wait's until after the end of the first let of the tour he won't have time to release singles and promo them and then the album before the next leg of the tour starts (simple logic).

First off, my apologies if I come across as if I'm fighting with you, and for any typos, I'm feeling very out of it. I was actually hooked up to an IV for a bit yesterday.
You say he has to fit his solo career in with the Brian and Roger stuff. I think it's clear at this point which comes first for him. It's Q+AL how I see it.
As for PR, his music suited the shows more than AL's solo music, maybe that's why there have been an AL solo songs added from time to time. TwoFux wasn't better with Brian and Roger playing on it, it was a mess. It didn't make the song a bigger hit what have you.
AL's solo music, and the fact he has released some of it while he's involved with Brian and Roger touring, sorry the timing comes across as tacky. Why not wait until Q+AL is over, it seems he still wants the Queen fans attention. This is partly what i mean when I say he is riding on coattails. As for his upcoming song with Nile, it will be the same old, same old, some Glamberts trying to unfair boost the numbers for it. It's unlikely to be a big hit, and if it does be big, I'll eat my hat ;-).

Last year they toured for six weeks plus a couple of one off private events and the Global Citizen gig. This tour in total will be less than 12 weeks so out of 52 weeks per year (that leaves 40 this year and over 40 last year not QAL related) I'd say Adam has been focusing a lot more on his solo career than QAL.
I don't think Paul's music suited Queen any more than Adam's does but there were probably a lot of Queen fans who may have been fans of Paul as well and would know the music. The majority of Adam's solo music isn't suited to Queen gigs I agree although quite a lot liked the rocked up version of Ghost Town but Adam's probably just as aware that the two styles don't really blend and that a lot of the Queen fans wouldn't even have heard his music so he's not about to have the energy die down while everyone sits there wondering what's this they're playing, they drop Queen deep cuts for the same reason.
I've already explained why he's releasing that song while on tour, the tour ends on 29th Feb, allowing for him travelling back and getting into gear to do promo he has until 24th May to release a single or two and the album and promo it, makes sense to put the song out now, he's balancing two careers and works things out time wise as best he can. He intends to tour after the QAL tour ends in July so he needs to get the songs and album out while he has the chance before the tour starts up in May again.
He's had enough experience releasing music while he's been working with Brian & Roger to know the Queen fans aren't gonna go and buy his music just because he releases it while he's on tour with them he's releasing it for his own fans as it will form part of Side B of his album. Cosmicc keeps bleating on about how working with them can't help his solo career, can't have it both ways.
The song with Nile may or may not be good and will be or not be a hit, doesn't matter, he loves working with Nile and he clearly loves working with Adam, this has been in the making from ages ago and they've had to get together when they were both free so it's taken a while. No one except on here thinks he's riding coattails or using QAL to promote his music, he's worked with them since 2012 and it's hasn't helped so that argument doesn't fly in the slightest. Even the Queen members solo stuff has never been helped by them being Queen including Freddie's, totally pointless argument.

The majority of Adam's solo music isn't suited to Queen gigs I agree although quite a lot liked the rocked up version of Ghost Town but Adam's probably just as aware that the two styles don't really blend and that a lot of the Queen fans wouldn't even have heard his music so he's not about to have the energy die down while everyone sits there wondering what's this they're playing, they drop Queen deep cuts for the same reason.
I've already explained why he's releasing that song while on tour, the tour ends on 29th Feb, allowing for him travelling back and getting into gear to do promo he has until 24th May to release a single or two and the album and promo it, makes sense to put the song out now, he's balancing two careers and works things out time wise as best he can. He intends to tour after the QAL tour ends in July so he needs to get the songs and album out while he has the chance before the tour starts up in May again.
He's had enough experience releasing music while he's been working with Brian & Roger to know the Queen fans aren't gonna go and buy his music just because he releases it while he's on tour with them he's releasing it for his own fans as it will form part of Side B of his album. Cosmicc keeps bleating on about how working with them can't help his solo career, can't have it both ways.
The song with Nile may or may not be good and will be or not be a hit, doesn't matter, he loves working with Nile and he clearly loves working with Adam, this has been in the making from ages ago and they've had to get together when they were both free so it's taken a while. No one except on here thinks he's riding coattails or using QAL to promote his music, he's worked with them since 2012 and it's hasn't helped so that argument doesn't fly in the slightest. Even the Queen members solo stuff has never been helped by them being Queen including Freddie's, totally pointless argument.

Rubbish, Adam takes his solo career very serious, saying it's a part time hobby is ridiculous and he's noticed plenty with and without Queen, you do spout some nonsense at times.
Tell you how much he's noticed - if SC had posted all the birthday messages from news outlets, radio stations, arena's all over the world etc she'd still be posting and the thread would be pages and pages long lol. [/QUOTE]
And his latest releases flopped... like the previously releases. Do not blame the digital age, Adam has 200 people ahead of him who have actually sold music.
Don't say, "Oh, he's indie!" because that only works for those who start indie. Adam has had more promotion on his shit than most. People just got tired of his generic bullshit.
Adam Worshippers didn't contribute to much Queen sales... he can't even create a hit himself. Anything Queen does, it's a hit =) Adam's auxiliary in Queen terms![/QUOTE]
I couldn't care less if he has what you class as a "hit", he's gone indie to be able to make the music he want's as opposed to being told what to do and if he's happy then that's what matters. As to generic bullshit his new music isn't which is again my point of why he went indie.
Really not interested in how many of his worshippers bought Queen music either, that was zero to do with my reply to ST17 I was simply pointing out that regardless of chart success etc Adam is passionate about what he's doing solo, this time more than ever because it's his baby and totally in his control.

He went indie because he had to and was dropped by the label you Glambert clown

You two have hijacked 4 threads at the same time this evening. What is that? A record?
Maybe you can take your fight here? So that the rest of us at least have a chance to discuss the topics (that is the current QAL tour?). That would be nice, you know? Thanks in advance. [/QUOTE]
Hey, snifflese, here it is for your information. Will you go after anadamfan now?
