This crowd has been amazing. Adam is stupendous!!! Maybe the best of the whole tour. (I always say that after each show).
I missed the encore…lost internet connection for a few minutes
I don’t want it to end.
Yes, luval. This has been an amazing summer.
The tour or the concert luval???
I’m quite glad the concerts finished….eyes are going a bit fuzzy from being on the computer too long!!!
Both, HK fan!! I wasn’t watching the picture much because it was so blurry but I could hear the sound all over the house.
Only three shows left. I probably will give a “recap” of all my thoughts after it’s over. (or over for now.
)
Love that he sings to Neil’s great bass line in AOBTD.

I loved that they did SMGO. Love that song and have missed it. Didn’t watch but listened. Got a lot of cleaning up done in my computer room.
Funny luval, I also thought that this was the best one. I’m sure I’ll change my mind too.
Hope we get live streams through the end.
I posted this on the August thread because I think we all need a little fun. I am bringing it here as well because most people will be in and out of this thread today.
Funny, TLKC Will have to think about that!
Totally depends on whether Adam would be a “hands on” boss or an “absentee landlord”
Peeps are waiting for them to come out of the venue. Here’s rufus.

Don’t bother trying.
“Hands on”!!!! I posted some options on the August thread for later on…..

Oi, @adamlambert – you are UN-FUCKING-REAL. Consider my disbelief permanently suspended. http://pic.twitter.com/bob9KIaag9

I love tweets like this one:
My thaughts exactly RS
You have to laugh at some of the tweeters though. If you have glam in your name you seriously need to consider the fact that SOME people will know that your disbelief wasn’t hard to suspend.

Catz just streamed their departure from the arena. I only heard the squealing. Checking the visuals now.
ETA: don’t know how to access that. NVM. If the video is any good it will appear shortly.
TLKC, I just went to the livestream and clicked on the top video on the right. It’s a little over a minute. People waiting for something. lol. But only one black car pulled out.
Love tweets like this

Good morning everyone! Looks it was yet another spectacular show, full of epic displays of talent onstage and life-changing moments for audience members. Ho hum, just another day at work for the boys.
Seriously, how do they do it? Perfection, at such a high level of performance, every single goddamn time. It amazes me!
I enjoyed reading the play-by-play of those of you who were able to listen to the livestream. Complaints about the stream cutting in and out and commercials interrupting great notes… then punctuated by glee over a particular song or how great Adam sounds. Which somehow makes all of that frustration worthwhile. Haha fun reading!
Love you ALL!
Gorgeous Close BoRap. You catch a glimpse of Brian getting his gold cape on.Watch as the camera sweeps to the crowd near the thrust to catch this wild fan! About 3:30 And again about 5:18…jumping & jumping!!! And he ain’t 16 yrs old.

eta: I hope we get a good encore video with this fan in it. Too bad we’ll probably never hear his thoughts after the concert.
Awwww, their faces like proud fathers. Wonder if Eber is jealous?

Am only posting exceptional (to me) pics from last night.

RECOMMEND … THE TALENTED DR BRIAN MAY!!!
I would love to see Brian and Adam do the jamming of this song .. bluesy Rock and Roll like this one.
Both of them will kill it and kill us as well. DED!!

Love your “exceptional” pics luval. Those are the ones I really want to see. That BoRap close up vid was great. The young fan looked to be having a wonderful bonding experience with Dad just as excited right next to him/her. The videographer was obviously a Queen/Brian fan. He kept the shot on Brian while Adam was singing, but that is fine, too.
luval That Bo Rap with the fan is awesome. Love seeing the guys like that.
This makes my heart full!!

Okay, so the last 48 hours I stood outside Adams hotel he was staying in. Just an hour ago his car got back and I didnt think it would stop, but before I knew it I was in front of my idol. This is the picture of when he signed my fye cd cover and I was speechless. I just met my inspiration, the man I look up to. I owe him everything. That’s my hair at the side lol.

I love the way that Brian May is reflected in @adamlambert’s sunglasses in this lovely photograph from Queen’s epic show last night at @rodlaverarena. They are playing again TONIGHT!
