@adamlambert you were amazing, loved your vocals and flamboyant stage presence. As a new fan, I purchased some of your songs today-yay!
(Hah – somebody likes “flamboyant”)

Dammit. Cuts off before the glory note and the end.
I used to be able to do that back-bend back in my competitive volleyball days – part of my stretching warm-up. But that was quite a few years ago. For a lark, I tried it today and was still able to do it although I don’t remember hearing cracking sounds before!
LOL AL! There should probably be warnings on that picture!
Yeah like DO NOT attempt this at home unless you have EMT’s standing by and good medical insurance!
Hey, I asked a couple of pages ago, if anybody with good ability to find pics is out there, I have something in my head/eyes, I can see a side by side of Freddie with that white wingy shirt from Live at the Rainbow, with his arms out wide, and then of Adam with the fringes with his arms up and out wide ( like at the end of STL Toronto 2 ).
I don’t store pics guys. I just enjoy them and have a memory for images.
Funny, how that works. I can’t remember what I had for breakfast yesterday, but, I can recall these pics.
Just did a quick search…something like this?

http://dianakat.smugmug.com/Queen-and-Adam-Lambert-Toronto/i-vqgHm62/A
Well, well AL! I’m pretty impressed.
Thinking this is what you may be looking for, mils? If not let me know and I’ll do more huntin’. Haven’t been able to find a side by side collage comparison in one image, yet.
Freddie:

Adam (compliments of AL):
http://alikat1323.smugmug.com/AdamLambert/Queen-Adam-Lambert/Queen-Adam-Lambert-LA/i-vkMzK4C/A
Excellent.
I don’t think there is a side by side out there. I was thinking of making one , with help here.
At the end of STL in Toronto, he had his arms up like Freddie in that pic, in his fringes. Is there a pic of him like that?
This one is close, but I think there is an even better one out there.
Thanks.
Okay mils, in the process of looking for the sought after outstretched fringes shot…. I came across this beauty which I now believe is my very favorite poster to date. mlg is a freaking genius. I ADORE this . . .
http://d3llznnuqn700o.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/QAL-poster-062714-Vancouver.jpg
Now, if we could just locate the image at the right with Adam’s outstretched arms (laterally at right behind his foreground image) it just may be a better one.
Or from this one up towards the right hand corner:
http://d3llznnuqn700o.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/QAL-poster-070914-Houston.jpg
While I was hunting… I found all kinds of little delicacies.
In the spirit of ulti‘s earlier post of this . . . . .
. . . . I thought I’d bring this little treat.
My only complaint is that I find it quite distracting to do any counting stitches under this condition . . .

Sweet Little and Big Treat Dreams, ALL!!
Nope, it’s just one arm.

She’s from Malaysia so it may be a few days before we see any of her videos from Perth. By then we’ll be on to the Sydney concerts but I’ll keep checking…
Another “Now I’m Here” – still cuts off the ending though

Hi mils
I use this free online tool to combine photos. What might look complicated is really quite simple. Click on “Add” to put the photo in the left panel and then repeat for the right panel. I also tick the box marked: “same expansion/reduction ratio for all images”. If I remember correctly, it will then prompt you to “Generate Image” – or something like that – click on that and that’s it. “Save image” and you’re done.
Hope this helps!

Example: I did this combine on Friday. The caption is either “What a day! I’m beside myself” or “Here’s looking at you kid”.

Noticed he didn’t have nail polish on at Perth Concert.
Queen & Adam Lambert, Perth Australia, August 22 2014 –

Killer Queen was fun. He really hammed it up pretty good. I love it when he goes all drama Queen. He truly is a natural comedian.
That guy who tweeted that Adam recognized him called out Toddrick Hall as the connection. Maybe they have met in LA.
Don’t think this review has been posted

From above link – interesting short review.
Added some new videos above from e cmw – the fan from Malaysia.
Including Dragon Attack – and I noticed that Neil was half way up the catwalk for that number. I’m curious if that was the case for the other Dragon Attack performances? The videos are usually focused on Adam so we don’t always see the other band members. And the bass is a killer part so I’m glad to see Neil showcased even if slightly back of the other three.
I love Neil & Dragon Attack. I think he was near the front at other shows if I remember.
I Want it All

e cmw has great videos.
Live stream from The Today Show is on now. Said “coming up, Adam Lambert & Queen”.

I thought this is an interesting & well said response to the review:
Eriskay Cavan · Top Commenter · Morristown, New Jersey
Paul, this is the best Review I have read. No mention of Adam having to fill big shoes, being respectful, blah, blah, blah. Looks like the rest of the reviewers were just copying each other. You did not do that and I thank you! This Queen and Adam are a perfect combination.
And here they are… http://youtu.be/fhB2MKQOHAk
Good freaking grief! Adam’s delivery is even more intense
and impassioned than ever.
Every word is massaged, crafted and communicated with conviction.
Boy has some serious diaphragm command here.
I’m truly impressed beyond words.
In the Lap of the Gods, 7 seas of rhye & killer queen, STL – by e cmw The audio is just amazing
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dUv-uQ_029o&feature=youtu.be
Didn’t notice earlier that he twirls at least 7 times at the end of STL.
I know I have to see them again live, somehow, somewhere before it’s all over.
So know how you feel, luval –

Review – read sideways – got dizzy – lol
(slightly annoying review – but not really bad)
Just curious…anybody know at which venue the pelvic thrusts started at the end of “Stone Cold Crazy”???
