Adam wasn’t appealing only to Glamberts in those 110 Glam Nation shows. I was amazed at the diversity of the people in the line that wrapped around the block at the first show I went to in Columbus. Inside the venue I was surprised by the guys standing near me who were with wives or girlfriends and were cheering as loud as I was. Every show was a standout, not just one or two because Adam is never boring and changes up his delivery of each song.
rockchic, there is a professional video for purchase of the Glam Nation Show he did in Indianapolis during that tour.

Adam's a trained singer, eh? Freddie's not. He didn't need training wheels.
![/QUOTE]
Well he obviously did, and because he wasn't trained his voice suffered. That's why vocally Friday night at Wembley is better than Saturday on the magic tour.
Most of The Crazy tour is better than a lot of the other 1979 gigs. It's why whole tours are inconsistent going from brilliant to average.
Freddie had a great voice but lacked the skill to use it and take care of it professionally. Compare trained opera singers, who often perform five nights a week and use their full range.
Lambert is trained to a point, mind that point allows him to use his voice at a consistent professional level.
Freddie couldn't do that live, so maybe "training wheels" was what he should have thought about.[/QUOTE]
There you have it again. Fucking Glamtarts visiting a QUEEN noticeboard and slamming Freddie for being not capable of singing properly while the asshat Lamebird is hyped to death. He lacked skill in 1979, one of those years (1979-1981 being his peak) where his voice completey peaked? And some fucking Glamtart asshole is coming to this board talking about Freddie being not capable of singing? How delusional can you fucking pricks get? You fucking tranny idol is not even a musician let alone a singer. He is an EMO screamer with a paperthin shit voice destroying others songs and making a career out of being a cover crooner. Gimme a break really. Hitting high notes is not equal to good singing. When I hear this tool yodeling at the end of TYMD like someone whose nuts get slapped I have to vomit.
And you really wonder why Glamtarts are hated on Queen boards?? Really????
Get the fuck out of here like sniff did.[/QUOTE]
Replying at your level and using phrases you like. . .
You fuck off you fucked up ass wipe. You're too narrow minded to see or accept the bigger picture.
And you acting like a stupid idiotic fuck crying that I'm not a Queen fan or that I'm a Glambert, fuck you you little fuck wit I was buying Queen albums and going to gigs before you were born.
You're full of shit and you know it little rocker boy. Go and write your shit reviews about music and artists you don't understand for people who don't give a fuck. Try letting people enjoy what they like and while your doing that maybe you could look into getting an intelligence transplant.
There are people here who know far more about the sudjects that are talked about on this site, there are people with far more adjective views than anything you've ever contributed.
Take you're fucked attitude and twisted views and fuck off little Weckwerth you're a filthy stain on the Queen and Q+Al communities.

Who was he appealing to? Rap, country fans as well?
Concerts usually do attract people from all walks of life, you make it seem that's something new.
How do you know every show was a standout when you didn't attend all of them? Do tell.
I mentioned an AL glamnation concert from Indianapolis that's available to watch for free on youtube. Oh well, not good enough coming from me, I suppose.

Do try not to live under a rock, Z-lister lol, you're clueless.
Adam is having a very busy 2020 so far:

The band isn't Queen any more, it's Queen + Adam Lambert. From the bits I've seen, they play mostly Queen songs and play them very well. If you don't like what they are doing then nobody is forcing you to watch or listen. There is plenty of original Queen material to enjoy.
I would love to see Queen + Adam Lambert but the closest they have come to my location is Birmingham and unfortunately I'm not available at the time they are there. I enjoyed Queen + Paul Rogers and got to see them at Nottingham and Sheffield, you even get to see the back of my bald patch in the DVD from Sheffield during I want to break free.
I for one am eagerly awaiting an official live concert video. Not too bothered about any new studio work unless it includes some re-visited old material but would listen to it before making an opinion.

I really hope Q+AL never resists Queen's old material on an album. Queen doesn't need AL to be involved with that. That's one thing that never, ever needs to be done, IMO.

Did you read my post earlier, or did you choose to ignore it? On youtube there is a concert from the Glamnation tour when it was Indianapolis, waste of my time pointing it out I guess.

No I read your post but you put that it was in parts rather than an actual concert, I find when watching individual vids of songs that I can't get a feel for the show as a whole and it doesn't flow the way a live concert DVD would. You mentioned a documentary, not sure what that is, maybe SC knows about it as the only documentary I know of is the one called behind the music which I've seen but it was just about his journey from being a child to being on Idol.

Yep I'm sure he will and I'm willing to bet it's AOBTD, he loves that song and has been doing it for years just like Taylor Hawkins keeps doing UP during the Foo's shows.

Oh dear again. You are using a Glambert tactic that twists things that I don't even post. AL has done many covers fact, and I'm aware Queen did covers as well. Better?
Funny thing, I think it was you who said in the last few days about comparing Freddie to AL, but you are comparing Queen and AL doing covers. First off, Queen never relied so heavily on covers, they did a song or two here and there. I can't think of one n Queen show that heavily relied on covers. Lambert relies on covers, heck he has been singing them with Brian and Roger for nearly a decade. Even with his solo shows he usually manages to fit a cover or two.
Another Glambert tactic to say I'm not a fan of AL's even though I have said very recently, in the last couple of days, even hours sgo that I really like Feel Something. I guess that doesn't make me a fan in your eyes. Alightyear then, sorry I don't fawn over the guy enough to be called a fan.
I wish you didn't resort to shitty Glambert tactics with me here. Very telling that you do so. [/QUOTE]
I'm not twisting anything I'm sticking to facts and the facts are that plenty of artists including Queen do covers during live shows. In 1973 Queen did five covers during the show and one again as a reprise (Jailhouse Rock). I'm not comparing them doing covers I'm pointing out the hypocrisy of calling one artist for doing something and giving another a free pass to another for the exact same thing, that's nothing to do with comparing.
Adam is touring WITH QAL as their frontman, that's not doing covers the same way as an artist covering others in their own show, how on earth can you not make that distinction?
Liking the odd song of an artist is not being a fan per se, there's plenty one off songs by artists I like but would never class myself was a fan of them in general and by that I mean I don't follow their career, don't watch their vids on YT and don't go to see them live and don't invest any time or energy in knowing or caring what they're up to all the time. Adam has die hard fans who follow his career closely, who go to shows, who love most of what he does and they're the fans he's entertaining so if he does things other people don't care for it doesn't matter, they aren't the audience his shows and music is aimed at. No idea how that comment could be construed as a glambert tactic.
[/QUOTE]
You did twist things that wasn't even in my posts, it's there what we both said. I never even said it wasn't ok to point out that other artists, including Queen did covers as well. I'm well aware. One of my favorite bands recently did a Queen cover...one, not heavily relying on doing them.
I stand by that I think AL relies heavily on doing covers songs. I'm also osteoporosis certain need will include a cover or two in his upcoming solo shows. Maybe even a Queen one; -).
AL does sing covers with Brian and Roger.
Genuine question, what makes an AL fan in your opinion? I don't blindly support everything an artist does. Nor do I dig and share personal info about my favorite artists.
I'm not a glambert or even an AL fan compared to some people. I'm ok with that. I say what I don't like, and I say what I do like, goes for every artist. I think I would actually put AL in my top 150 artists of the last few years. There is much more music I like more than him, guess what, I'm ok with that too. That might not make a fan in your eyes so be it.
Glambert tactics, there are two people here who purposely twist things that I don't say in my posts, it must be a kick i guess. Glambert tactics are the ones who say I'm not an AL fan. They do that trying to make me look bad. I know we disagree rockchic, but at least discuss or debate what in actullay in my posts. It's a well worn tactic of the two Glamberts here to twist as much as possible about me, I almost am sure someone will come along to say I hate AL, I'm negative etc.
BTW, I went and looked. On youtube there is a documentary of sorts about AL's glamnation tour, there's a catch, it has to be paid to be able to see it. I've not watched it, so I can't tell you what is in it. There is also a playlist of the Glamnation tour from Indianapolis from 2010, it's in parts however. [/QUOTE]

I didn’t twist anything, I pointed out Queen did covers and you said “I was talking about AL not Queen, why turn it around”.
“I stand by that I think AL relies heavily on doing covers songs. I'm also osteoporosis certain need will include a cover or two in his upcoming solo shows. Maybe even a Queen one; -)”.
He puts one or two covers in his solo shows, how is that “relying heavily”?
“AL does sing covers with Brian and Roger”.
He sings with Brian & Roger, he’s the frontman for the band QAL and as such is singing the music they want to play which in this case is Queen music. QAL contains two original members and isn’t a cover band so he’s what he calls himself “a guest singer”. What else would he be singing with them?
“Genuine question, what makes an AL fan in your opinion? I don't blindly support everything an artist does. Nor do I dig and share personal info about my favorite artists”.
The same as what makes a fan of any artist, liking what they do and having an interest in seeing them succeed would be my definition.
“I'm not a glambert or even an AL fan compared to some people. I'm ok with that. I say what I don't like, and I say what I do like, goes for every artist. I think I would actually put AL in my top 150 artists of the last few years. There is much more music I like more than him, guess what, I'm ok with that too. That might not make a fan in your eyes so be it”.
No one expects you to be a fan or a glambert, no idea why you would think they do or why you think you need to point out you aren’t.
“Glambert tactics, there are two people here who purposely twist things that I don't say in my posts, it must be a kick i guess. Glambert tactics are the ones who say I'm not an AL fan. They do that trying to make me look bad”.
Why would not being a fan make anyone look bad? No one has to be a fan of his or like what he does but most people who aren’t would just ignore his music, what he chooses to do in his career etc.
