With Adam out on tour with Queen, the main chat threads are relatively quiet but we still need a place where we can discuss all things Adam that are not Q+AL concert-related. However, I did choose a Q+AL+Band photo for this month’s thread since there are many great Adam photos and mlg posters in the concert threads for everyone to drool over. And after all, it is the summer of Queen + Adam Lambert!!

Enjoy the chat!

    Just got off the phone with luval, and we’re all set for her to pick me up at Toronto airport!! Yay!!!

    So, here’s a for realz story that happened to me today:

    I was at the new gas station/market near my house ( upscale one at that ) and the sound system was playing Crazy Little Thing Called Love, and I’m shopping ( granola bar and iced tea for my trip to Chicago to catch my flight, and Dramamine, but, I digress) , and I guess I was singing along and bopping a bit, because this burly rocker looking dude comes up to me and, says,

    “Don’t you fucking love Queen?” And he’s doing that rock hand gesture, and and in a zone

    I said , yeah, I do

    He said ” I hear they’re on tour and KILLING it”

    And—–

    “I hear the new singer is off the hook great.”

    I’m smiling and nodding, and I said, unh-hunh, I saw them in Chicago

    “NOOOO f****cking way!!!”

    Nodding, yesss, and I’m leaving in the morning to see them again–

    He gets his friend, another burly rock dude, wearing a Zep T shirt, “This little lady saw F****cking Queeeeeen, and she’s gonna see them again!!” “We tried to get tickets for the Chicago show but couldn’t.” I didn’t have the heart to tell them they should have joined a fan club to get VIP pre-sale codes.

    I’m just LOLOLing and said that the show was awesome, and that the singer’s name was Adam Lambert, from Idol, and told them to look for some vids, and about his costumes and they said they would check him out.

    This was hands down my favorite “Adam” moment to date. So funny I can’t even properly relate it!!

    All this fuss for something that’s probably not all that interesting.

    That picture is gorgeous and well worth all the effort you went to, to get it for us. Thanks Kiss

    leoblueeys … WELCOME TO OUR PLAYGROUND. Heart Rose

    Love, Love, Love your recap of Houston Concert.
    So precious and it means a lot that your friend who is Freddie’s fan is impressed with Adam.
    Your recap is so inspiring and well written.

    Thank you so very much for taking your time to write such a long and excellent recap for us. I could have missed it because Houston Concert Thread is right after Dallas and we are so busy and can’t catch up with all of these goodies.

    Aller’s … let have a warm welcome to leoblueeys and check out her recap here.

    Happy Anniversary Ron-and many, many more! We also are married 37 years!

    Hi cocoglam! Hug Right That’s so nice of you. Thank you very much! Very nice to see you again!

    What a beautiful day here! I’m looking at a cloudless, deep blue sky and there’s bright sunshine all around. I wish this weather would hold because tomorrow, with a 90% “chance” of rain, it’s gonna rain. Taking an umbrella to the concert was not part of the plan!

    I can’t believe that it’s July 12th and those not already here in Toronto will be arriving later on today and meeting for dinner. luval has backed out of her driveway by now and is on her way to meet mils at the airport. jlurksacto has driven to the airport in Sacramento for what sounds like the 14th time … Heh … and is on his way. I’ll be seeing people tonight I haven’t seen in 3 years, since Ste.-Agathe, and will finally get to hug and hold my hello gorgeous girl for the first time.

    Safe travels everyone!

    GOSH, hi everybody! Have been deprived of wifi and only brief phone signals since Monday night while crossing beautiful Canada by train. Felt like an Agatha Christie novel with a very varied and interesting collection of fellow passengers ( hubby does a very good Poirot impression). No murders to solve, though.
    FINALLY we are about 9 minutes from Toronto so I can read about Houston and Dallas. Great shows!
    Congrats nkd on sweet granddaughter, and Ron on your 37th anniversary! Hope we last that long!
    See you soon!
    Btw, after seeing Saskatoon I am amazed at the turnout for that concert. They must have come from miles around, bless their Queen-loving hearts.
    Had one dinner partner who loved Adam on Idol but lost track and was soooo happy to hear of his successes and tour with Queen. Wanted to go to Toronto show but has to fly home to Fla. today. Another couple will try to go tomorrow night, they’re from small town in the Prairies visiting son in Toronto. Others going to YouTube to check out the vids. Lots of interest.

  17. Calgary says:

    I’m green with envy at the love-in in TO! I hope know you will all have in INCREDIBLE time, both visiting together and seeing the show. Hoping for pages and pages of detailed recaps of before, during and after!

  18. Calgary says:

    Hey, leoblueeys Welcome, and thanks for the joyful recap! Stay connected. This is a wonderful place to hang!

    The exact same article was in the ‘Oregonian’ in Portland, OR. My Mom brought me the article, because I don’t subscribe to the paper anymore.
    Makes me think that Adam’s new home news, may be in many Home, Realestate sections of newspapers around the country.

  25. Ron says:

    A little bit of a snafu here … Neutral

    luval uses her cell phone to call and tell me that she’s at the airport for mils. It was 12:50pm and the plane lands at 1:15pm. Great timing!

    Except, mils calls me at 1:45pm to say she hasn’t even boarded the plane yet! Thunderstorms in Chicago delayed the flight. She now arrives here at 4:30pm!

    It seems luval can make calls on her cell phone but not receive calls (in Canada). We both leave messages but mils and I can’t reach her.

    What to do?! Confused

    I phone the airport and ask if luval can be paged. Yes, they will do that for me. I pray that luval hears her name on the PA system.

    She doesn’t … but coincidentally calls me less than 5 minutes later and I give her the news about mils.

    luval‘s probably checking into the hotel now because mils didn’t want her to wait. I hope mils is air borne and on her way. She’ll be taking a cab to Novotel Hotel. She’ll have just enough time to take exactly one deep breath and then go to the restaurant.

    It’ll all work out. Smile

  26. Ron says:

    Update: mils‘s plane is 10 minutes into the flight. Arrival time is 4:08pm.

    She now has time to take two deep breaths before going to the restaurant.

    Big Smile

  27. twilightmagic8 says:

    leoblueeys, I enjoyed your Houston concert re-cap immensely, and I loved what your friend decreed for Adam’s future. So happy for your Adam/Queen experience, with a Queen fan. Every Queen+Adam concert has it’s own special sauce, that just makes you want more! This is what you get LIVE!

    Welcome to the funnest place, where I get my kicks. Rose

    Neither rain, nor sleet, nor snow, nor delayed flight will stop Mils and all the Allers from making their way to Toronto!!!!!! Watch out Adam Baby – here they come Announce

    I know you will all have as much fun as we “Westies” did last week!

  30. Ron says:

    What a great site for everyone to use when tracking planes!

    Just enter the airline and flight number:

    http://flightaware.com/

    Tracks in real-time and gives an illustrated map with the route and a little plane figure as it progresses, status, speed, altitude.

    Good to have handy for future trips.

    :big smile:

    I can’t wait to hear Mils’s story, about this chaotic moment, just getting to Toronto.
    She’s a walking, talking Adam promoter, and always puts herself into the moment she is in.
    It’s like we have our own Fannie Brice, or Lucille Ball in our midst.
    I would like to be a little mouse in her pocket, to just hear her escapades. ROTFL Announce Mils will be arriving, with story’s to tell. Can’t wait!! Clock

  32. twilightmagic8 says:

    Oh, she has landed! Someone get her a stiff drink Drink
    Ron, is it still suppose to rain tomorrow?

    Well…if Adam turned down third lead in Hedwig, maybe it’s because he’s got a gig as opening lead in another B’way play!!!!

    I wish I were there. I wish I could have gone there to celebrate our anniversary with Ron+Gil, and the ALLers‘ gang. But I can’t afford to go.

    So DH, DD and I just went out for a quiet dinner.
    (I was sad and mad.)
    Hubby gave me a dozen of beautiful red roses.
    ME:
    Thinking …Hmmm .. It should have been a Q+AL ticket. But .. I smile ..

    ME:
    “Thanks … Honey! The roses are gorgeous and they smell so good.”

    HUBBY:
    “Happy Anniversary … They are special for you.”

    ME: Look at the 12 red roses …
    “Happy 12th Anniversary”

    HUBBY:
    “Honey … We’ve been married for 32 years.”

    ME: … batting my eyes …
    “YES, BUT 12 OF THEM ARE WONDERFUL!!!”
