always a good angle –
Not sure luval but I know he did it in Chicago so I would guess yes, at at least all shows with the disco ball. Did they have it at shows that did not have the thrust?
Just checked Didn’t do it in Vegas.
LOL Agreed

These vids already up –
Didn’t even notice it in Chicago glambotgram. Was so mesmerized and in awe of everything that was going on that night that I missed so much. It’s a blur when I try to think of that night now.
I saw this on mj’s some radio review podcast from someone at the Sydney show. Will post there too.

I haven’t listened since I am at work.
Great pic, from the big pause in STL, I bet.
luval – I loved that comment that you brought over from Geoffrey. He gets it!

Mel_Tea is posting some great pics from the show.
luval – that’s a great discussion – said Adam was the big surprise of the night and that Queen “struck gold” with him.
Made me so happy to hear that – ’cause it’s TRUE!!!!
Wonder if he’ll do the high note on WWTLF on the last show? Even the high note in Under Pressure. Wouldn’t that be epic if he did.
I would love a light bulb as a souvenir.
Didn’t know ‘Waltzing Matilda’ that Brian played and audience sang along (AL posted above)
So I googled.
Tom Waits – Tom Traubert’s Blues “Waltzing Matilda” (Lyrics-Text)

Rod Stewart – Tom Traubert’s Blues (Waltzing Mathilda) (with lyrics in the info screen)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cvwpsXEYCXU
Cool panorama shot of the whole crowd before the show started:
GORGEOUS shot from a professional (?) photographer, who may post more (since this is a pic from the end of the show, that means he/she was not taking pics in an official capacity, so may have great pics from throughout the show):
For a professional photographer, this must be one great show at which to take pictures.

“Queen, with Adam Lambert. What a show! To all the doubters; you should have been there to have your opinions rocked. Happy Day, I’ve been waiting 30 years to see Queen, even if it was only two of the originals. None of those tribute acts could touch this.”
I’ve mentioned this before…I love the crowd pictures!

BoRhap –
Find crowd pics like these utterly thrilling, luval, knowing he’s looking out at these massive audiences. Must be so happy!

Another one down –
asifclueless , Waltzing Matilda is probably the folk song most identified with Australia of them all. I have known it since I was a kid, but us non Ausies usually just know the refrain and not the verses. I looked at what you posted and was pretty shocked, because I never saw that before. Almost the whole song is completely changed, especially the lyrics. I see from the video posted above that Brian did the traditional version, as I would have expected
In England too its an arse…….an ass is like a donkey, or a stupid person…
This crowd pic makes it look like it was an outside venue, or at least one open to the sky. Was it?

I posted that podcast on the sep thread yesterday luval…it was great to listen to.
asif…waltzing Matilda is like an unofficial anthem for Australia….at least to people outside Oz
rs.…I don’t think that crowd shot is from this concert…looks like Seoul maybe?
And we have a review
http://www.brisbanetimes.com.au/entertainment/music/queen-rock-the-brisbane-entertainment-centre-review-20140902-10b7p0.html
Like this”combining reunion, tribute and baton-passing facets”
Sorry, HK fan. I’ll remove mine from the September thread.
IT’S A GREAT REVIEW!!!!!!!!
asif Those “Waltzing Matilda” videos you posted are not Waltzing Matilda – the real title for them is Tom Traubert’s Blues – Waltzing Matilda
The traditional song is the unofficial anthem of Australia. Here is a great YT of the inimitable Rolf Harris explaining the words and then singing it in a very traditional way.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bl-YI44XYjI
you don’t have to remove it luval……better to have it twice than not at all, sometimes things get missed the first time round
Thanks … guys .. rs, HKfan and Calgary… for the info of “Waltzing Matilda” and the Rolf Harris’s video.
Love it.
And I found another one.
Waltzing Matilda (Australian Folk Song) – Ruby Kate – Acoustic Cover
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nnS_0_TmFD0
Aw, I don’t mind removing post, HK fan. I had mentioned once before to let me know if something’s already been posted. But true, sometimes they are missed.
An excellent We Will Rock You

Guy sitting next to me, diehard Queen fan since 74, saw Freddie 8x, could not say enough about Adam – “vocally, better than Freddie” <333
Greta @Gretski06
Another guy just said he is a Queen fan from ages ago and said Lambert was brilliant! Dad told him how we have been following him for years.

Good lord, the man sounds unbelievable –
(There’s a small glitch at, unfortunately, the end of WWTLF – but it clears up quickly.)

Great pic – may be Sydney
I’m so happy for the amazing success of Queen + Adam Lambert Tour 2014…but I’m sad too…cuz it’s over! So many exciting nights of hurrying home from work to see what videos and pictures were posted.Would Adam do the pelvic thrust on SCC? Would he lick the microphone? That sweet chemistry between Adam and Brian and on and on…Now what am I going to do??? I’m feeling the withdrawal symptoms already…
Yes – going to be strangely bereft for a while, I think, Toni B.
Hope Album info starts emerging soon –
Not over ToniB! There are two more in New Zealand wednesday and thursday. Then we might get to rest a bit!!
Good review. Hope it hasn’t been posted already
