Adam calendar photoshoot – Lee Cherry of Cherry Soda Studios

After what seems like an eternity after announcing the Queen + Adam Lambert tour in March, it will finally happen. Adam is in London preparing before the show kicks off in Chicago on June 19th! Plenty of ALLers will be attending the shows and as usual, we will be creating souvenir threads. Cannot wait to see the videos, photos and recaps!

Enjoy the chat!

Hangout with Adam – AT&T Live Proud LIVE – 06/14/2014 – starts at the 4:50 mark

    Agree about Kesha, but she was beginning to be very hot at the time. I think the idea of him being bi-curious gave hope to a few thousand fans, lol. He did say in interviews that she is very intelligent and down-to-earth, not like her “persona.” He’s defended her a few times, and she defended him too.
    I never saw the fur thing go any further.
    But well, he wears lots of leather, snakeskin (he can have all thr pythons in the Everglades for all I care!) and said he enjoys a good steak sometimes. Not PETA material lol.

    Yeah, Peta is not beating down my door to give me a membership card either. LOL

    Kesha does seem like she has lived a hard life and I do hope she has gotten better in rehab.

    Brian seems to have a great sense of humor and mostly goes after Government policy and Royals(fox hunting)not individuals

    I can see him listening to that interview and shaking his head and saying “Adam, my boy, REALLY? KEISHA?” LOL Big Smile

    Queen Facts @QueenFacts1991
    In harmonies, Brian normally did the lower vocals, Freddie the middle vocals, and Roger the higher vocals.

    Can Adam do them all? lol

    Yikes, guys – I have extra QAL tix for Calgary and I have put them out there at cost and not had one nibble! When do fans start buying last minute tix? The show is June 26. Should I panic? It looks like there are a lot of tix available from a bunch of resellers. Maybe I should discount them…

    In the past, have sold 2 tickets on Craigslist, which I won on a radio station. They were great tickets. I sold them for face value.

    I also purchased Journey tickets off of Craigslist, 2 hours before the concert here in Portland.

    Also, Adam’s “Glam Nation Tour” sold out so fast, I was unable to get tickets. It was crazy, and I panicked.
    I found the four I needed on Craigslist, from the same person, who bought them at the box-office, and ended up not needing 4 of them. He sold them to me for face value. I was high anxiety until they were in my hands.
    So all my 3 experiences were very positive.

    Give it a shot and see what happens. People in Portland sell tickets all the time on Craigslist. For the most part trustworthy, and fair. Scalpers are usually flagged.

  26. Calgary says:

    Thanks twilightmagic8. Kijiji is the big online buy/sell/exchange website here, but I just put an ad on Craigslist too. 10% discount. I just hope I don’t have to eat them.

  27. luval says:

    Was just over at the Planning thread and listening to several Queen songs from aely’s list. Thanks, aely. There are a couple that I like but don’t hear Adam singing them and some that I could hear Adam doing. I wanted to try and get familiar with Queen songs I’ve never heard. Still have quite a few to go. They have so many!

    But tlkc posted this from Hammersmith 2…I Want To Break Free where he jumps in the audience & splits his pants. It’s a good one.

    Love that baby singing Elvis…too cute.

    and that pic of Freddie and Queen posted by ulti…I truly hope Adam never gets any costume ideas from Freddie!!! Never found him sexy……at all.

  29. aely says:

    luval If there is a random song you, or anyone, are wondering about let me know and I can upload it to sound cloud so you can hear it. (Looks like they are blocking songs on You Tube) I really think I have every song they ever did. LOL

    I don’t think there is a song that Adam can’t make his own in their catalog, agreed that some fit more than others but he has the range and ability pull it off.

    That said, there are some songs I don’t EVER want him to touch, eg, Love of My Life (literally, I would be pissed) and a couple that I think he struggles eg. Radio GaGa but all together it is an unbelievable match “Made in Heaven”

    Get ready for Adam Awesomeness, Queen fans!
    Sweet Awesome Adam Dreams, ALL!!

  32. luval says:

    20 second Queen preview from the show “Sunday Night”. No Adam, though.

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ILR7deVN4t0&feature=youtu.be

    Don’t know how this relates to U.S. time if at all.

    eta: this is a sneak preview. Actual show is June 15th.

  33. TLKC says:

    A person (actually 2 people) on Adamtopia has been conducting a tutorial on Queen for the last couple of months and it is pretty comprehensive. Her goal is to cover ALL of the songs before June 19th. Their two compilation cds also offer the best crash course: Classic Queen and Best of Queen. (If you watched the 2012 videos, you’ve got most of those songs covered already.)

    I agree with you re: Love of My Life, aely. It would be a shock if Brian gave that up. The middle set from 2012: Days of Our Lives, Year’ of 39 etc. was a chance for Queen fans, who are a committed and deeply emotional bunch, to reminisce and feel fully the loss of Freddie, the band that was and their own youth. It almost made me cry. The video of them all looking so young and happy was so moving.

  34. TLKC says:

    Love that baby singing/channeling Elvis! Either the Dad does karaoke or they have a DVD of Elvis – the baby is deep into the spirit of the King.

    Love your sign-offs Sparkle Big Smile

  35. luval says:

    Love of My Life is beautiful. But I honestly prefer Brian singing it instead of Freddie. Adam could certainly handle it with his higher register. Could be a Soaked moment. I have a feeling Brian would be the only one performing it as a tribute to Freddie, though. What a great voice Brian has. This is from Kiev.

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w_QcNSUnO5w

    Guess we’ll know in a couple of weeks!

    eta: Just to add if Adam did sing Love of My Life, I’m sure most fans, at least in the U.S. wouldn’t have a clue to the history of Freddie singing it. If Adam singing it and it upsets people would we ever know if it was Brian’s idea? It’s really up to Queen.

  36. luval says:

    Always disliked 20th Century Boy but for some reason I’m starting to warm up to it because of the Verizon commercial!

  37. TLKC says:

    RE: PETA – I think they are very extreme in their tactics, like some GREENPEACE people. Can’t speak for Brian but I make a distinction between leather, which is a meat by-product, and fur, which isn’t. We are carnivores, like it or not, but no one is buying chinchilla at the grocery store.

    Some onliners are claiming that the red jacket was real fur and that, as such, Brian may have had occasion to discuss his views on the subject directly with Adam. (Close pictures suggest that the fur was synthetic.) I doubt they have. Last week Adam was Brian’s special guest at WWRY and he would never have worn fur to that event if Brian had made his views known. (Also, the Brits are famous for staying out of other people’s business.)

    Bottom line, I wish people wouldn’t wear fur. That includes Adam. I certainly have friends who wear it and I would never put them on the spot about it because it is clearly my opinion, not theirs. I love them and I love Adam anyway.

  38. luval says:

    tlkc I agree with your PETA post!

  39. luval says:

    Bold fail. I wasn’t paying attention.

  40. TLKC says:

    Thanks for the nod on the Tom Ford/mens’ suits post, ulti. Tom Ford is OTT on sartorial and personal grooming matters. He once said there was nothing worse than chipped nail polish. NOTHING?

    Do you remember when they announced Adam at one of the earlier music award shows, the camera actually moved to Tom Ford, the best-known out gay man in the audience!? (Even Hollywood had a lot of evolving to do just 5 years ago.) I always imagined that a meeting between the two would be stilted because Adam’s full- on rock & roll, chipped nail polish, wear-your-make-up-to-bed approach was the epitome of everything Ford hated. They would probably get on much better today.

  41. TLKC says:

    Ha, luval, your bolding demonstrates the proper priorities. Big Smile

  42. TLKC says:

    Very happy for you and the state of Wisconsin, mils! It looks as though the 10th Circuit isn’t going to rule for Utah and Oklahoma before summer break, so SSM won’t reach SCOTUS until next June, by which time most Circuit Courts will have ruled and it will be pretty much moot. Gay Pride will be HUGE in the US next year. Maybe Adam will perform at one and we can make that our annual summertime get-together. Party

    Unless Adam tours his 3rd CD, in which case PARTY ALL SUMMER! Party Party Party Party

  45. TLKC says:

    That’s a beautiful story HK fan. Adam is so considerate. I waited outside MTV Canada with two young fans all day in the freezing cold when Adam made his promo visit to Toronto in February 2009 (the day the VJ Jessie split her pleather pants during the interview.) Jessie told him we had been waiting all day so he stopped for 5 minutes and talked to us and took pictures. Lane had to make him leave us. His last words were “Now go and get some hot soup!”

  46. Ron says:

    I don’t know what Adam is talking about. Singing this song was a walk in the park. Nothin’ to it!

    Lying

    Really great full orchestral arrangement but the last 45 seconds is nothing but repetition and then it just fades away.

    I don’t have everybody’s email address to thank them privately so please excuse me when I do so here.

    I want to thank TLKC, rs, TK fan, and Cher for seemingly running to my defense on Facebook the other night!

    The effect of that one comment felt the same as being kicked in the stomach and you were all right there for me!

    Please know how much your kind support was a tremendous help and how much it meant then and how much it means to me now!

    Love you! Rose Rose Rose Rose

  47. Ron says:

    Double post.

  48. TLKC says:

    Hi Ron! Very happy to speak my piece and support you. Much love and looking forward to Family Day – Tuesday.

  49. luval says:

    So I am driving around town, weather is perfect, radio sucks!!! Would have loved to hear Lay Me Down right now. The song of the summer. But no. Another missed opportunity.

  50. Ron says:

    I just did a freeze frame photo from our local news and weather TV station:

    Look below the temperature readings – that are in Celsius, btw. It’s a sunny 82 degrees Fahrenheit here in Toronto. Beautiful day!
