    Boy, is he channeling Elvis on CLTCL

    Definitely. Boy’s been watching some Elvis vids. ROTFL

  2. rs says:

    As usual, the audience absolutely loved the show, and the reviewers were tepid. It is like they think it is their job to find fault. Mad

  3. rs says:

    Must pull myself away from the computer and get on with my day. Will watch the rest later

  4. glambotgram says:

    Wow they just do not miss a beat, Amazing concert again,
    the GT video from MFranklin has an awesome view of those luscious white pants, different ones than Chicago but they are yummmm. The boy sure does fill out a pair of pants.

    The only thing I didn’t care for was the outfit change for KQ, it just isn’t the same without the fringes.

  5. glambotgram says:

    Really great review

    At the door, a lot of desperate people looking for tickets.

    THIS, what Adam always says, great songs are great songs.

    The text began talking about a personal thing because I found myself thinking of something that may sound corny, but it always seems to me very true … the eternity of music. The timeless power of music fascinates me and intrigue me. When good songs come up, they mark the lives of many people, not necessarily born at the time they were launched. And many years later, continue to thrill, excite, delight. Inside the gym in Sao Paulo, all kinds of people. Proof that the Queen enchanted generations was there for all to see. Elderly, adults in their 30/40 years young 20-somethings, children and adolescents, all enjoying.

    So I watched the videos up top & throughout the posts. Didn’t see STL or the finales but I’m sure they’re in there somewhere. Couple things…
    – The hip thrusts on the floor at the end of One Vision. Holy Moly
    – Did the Q not come down?
    – I loved rock Ghost Town
    – Crowds sang along to almost every song…great crowds!!
    – WWTLF I have no words
    – His pants: the white & the black…so tight!
    – He was wearing a bit of eye makeup I think

    That last review was great. Can’t wait for RIR!

    Oh, like glambotgram, I missed the fringes. And I would have loved to see a couple of different outfits but still love the leopard suit. That must be a shock to people who have never seen it.

    coming back from the ashes to say I was at the concert yesterday and it was awesome, great reception! Now on to Rock in Rio!

    Wonder if others will make a trip across the continent to see other shows?

    I just turned on vanglam76’s videos from the start. There is a playlist and they have the entire concert, I think.

    We all love Adam and think he is it, which he is, but I can see Freddie’s presence being missed. He was dynamic on stage with audience in hand. He was quite the peacock, with the other band members mostly in the background with the exception of instrumental solos. He was the show!

    Queen + Adam however gives reverence to not only Freddie but the other remaining band members as well, as it should. This is their showcase of music! Brian and Roger are the stars. Adam knows this. But damn it, Adam is frikken fantastic!
    He’s Adam and his voice and their music is other worldly!

    I know I’m preaching to the choir but reading these reviews brings it all up again.
    So just ignore me but I needed to get it out.

    I miss the fringes too!!

  13. Axxxel says:

    I loved GT! How am I going to be satisfied with the whistle after hearing Dr Bri slay it on the guitar and turn it into a rock song?

    I second that rs

  14. nkd says:

    renataademelo, I’m so jealous of you right now! Grin

    I know I have no right as I have had many opportunities to see Adam over the years and went to 6 QAL shows last summer, but dang it, I want more!

  15. luval says:

    Can’t even escape on a plane! This country loves Queen

  16. Axxxel says:

    Missed all the live stream fun..
    haven’t seen all video’s but this is my impression:
    -White pants ! wow !!
    -Wonderful voice (what’s new)
    -GT rockversion… I was mesmerized.. A great way for Brian to show off…
    -TSMGO.. He did it again, singing the lyrics incorrectly
    -Radio Gaga: hat off to the videographer… such great video, showing it all…
    -Audience: and I thought the Brits were the best singing audience.. apparently not…

  17. riskylady says:

    Gosh, Somebody to Love is somehow both adorably charming and naughty!! I was so waiting for that. Fabulous! He was in PRIME voice last night – every song was amazing. Save Me and WWTLF just WOW. And what an audience, I think the loudest ever, they drowned out BoRhap lol.
    True, Adam forgot TSMGO – he seems to have trouble with it once in a while, and I’ve noticed Brian has trouble with his part too sometimes. Still, it sounded great even tho he sang the first verse twice, and left out “I’ll face it with a grin, I’m never giving in” – the highest part (maybe on purpose..) nobody cared!
    The revues. I have a theory. Some just cling to their old beliefs (Freddie, Love of My Life, 1985, best ever) and it must really annoy them to see the joy and adulation QAL receive. It’s like a betrayal to them, instead of an affirmation of the greatness, so they just have to reassure themselves with those cliches of “can never replace” or “can’t reach the level of.”
    Audiences don’t lie. Many are seeing Queen for the first time live, with a new young singer, and loving him. Que sera, sera! They will not stop admiring Fred, but this is here and now and being experienced/absorbed.
    Maybe they’re saving the full frontal fringes for RiR! And Lucy too (hope)!

  18. nkd says:

    Agree Risky, audiences don’t lie and every one of them has been eating it up!

  19. nkd says:

    Yes, all of the pants are properly filled out! Laugh Razz

  20. renataademelo says:

    Ok so about last night:
    – I think GT should be placed after WWTLF
    – The couch and Killer Queen has to be done with the fringes.
    – Loved the sing along. I think I´m gonna cry tomorrow on Love of my Life
    – Somehow Brian´s guitar sound different to me yesterday, with some new riffs
    – I so happy about the reception that Adam is getting! I´m proud of how Brazil is treating Queen and Adam. So much love!
    – And I´m feeling so special right now because of the fact that Adam came back with the Brazilian Flag around him.

    Tomorrow is going to be epic!

    Yes, karma is a bitch, because Official Queen is seeing more Adam right there than in ALL their Instagrams of the show Frown !
    It rankles me. They didn’t even show him on the songs he kills like STL, TSMGO. I guarantee if this were Freddie he’d be in every frame.
    And there were a couple of teenage bitches posting rudely on every Instagram demanding pics of Brian and Roger only. Grrrrr.

  22. nkd says:

    Awww, Love of My Life was extra special! Audience is amazing!

    Thanks you renataademelo, so happy you are there & can attend all the Epicness! Yes

    I agree with all your suggestions. WWTLF should be honored before Ghost Town. The audience is there to hear Queen songs, so it would much better to hear & see WWTLF first. The awesome vocals are so magnificent, that the audience would be warmer to accept Ghost Town.
    I do hope that Adam is lurking here to see renataademelo’s suggestions, because she is right on.
    Also the sound issues, because Adam was fiddled with his ear piece & his sound device in his back pocket, much more that he had done at all the other Queen concerts.
    This is a good trial run, before RIR.

    Bring back the fringes & the whimsy!!!

  26. Axxxel says:

    So many glorynotes… Practice for RIR… or just extra energy because he does not need to sing too much as the audience sings along a lot…

    renataademelo have fun and stay safe !

  36. LadyNorth says:

    Just finished watching the whole show by vanglam. I wanted to get the real feeling, because I missed the stream. What an amazing audience! Adam take it all in Jump I think they have to turn the volume up in SA, sometimes I heard the audience louder than him Grin Could be the recording too.

    They got all the top songs plus fabulous rocking GT. Which I agree should be placed somewhere else than between SM and WWTLF… renataademelo, you lucky lady, enjoy and have a great time tomorrow Big Smile Looking forward to your recap!

    I have missed QAL so much. It’s so amazing to see their chemistry, huge cheering crowds and hear those glorious notes.

  38. luval says:

    Good idea about placing WWTLF before Ghost Town. WWTLF is really Adam’s song now & Ghost Town following it is the 2nd Adam Lambert song!! Need to lift up the audience after the sad-ish WWTLF.

    This pic may have been posted but I love it. A large one!!

  46. glambotgram says:

    I really can’t see them putting GT after WWTLF. Adam leaves the mini stage after WWTLF, it is a moment. Brian stays there to begin his solo. It would not flow as well if they went back to the main stage to do GT.

    Maybe put it in the section after all the solo’s.

    Agree with this. I would hate to see that moment gone.
    Perhaps before Save Me or as glambot said, in the next segment.

  49. HK fan says:

    Haven’t watched all the videos yet, but what I have seen, lovedHeart
    have just watched WWRY/WATC, so good…vanglams videos have been amazing, but she cut off before the bows and God save the QueenFrown I love that part, has anyone seen a video that shows that?

  50. HK fan says:

    oh, and definitely can’t have GT after WWTLF….maybe before save me?, then slow it down with those 2. I had forgotten how much I love Save Me.
