Queen + Adam Lambert: The immortality of feeling
Every expectation was exceeded
Queen + Adam Lambert
Wednesday September 30, 2015
Athletic Track of the National Stage
Without imitating Freddie Mercury, begins the song 'Killer Queen', and Adam Lambert leans back in a chair and flirting with the camera showing off her dramatic talents as a singer. It also playful virtuoso, while next to Brian May looks askance, almost paternal pride. Who he was participating in the contest "American Idol" is no different from Paul Rodgers spirit, the voice of Free and Bad Company that Queen first came to Chile for seven years. While the performance of the British leans more toward the voice, with influences of blues and soul, California 33 adds to the musical theatricality share in the already emotional show of the band. So, quite naturally it was deployed in the different sections of the show, showing not close, but with a remarkable rudeness.
"Many thanks to Roger and Brian for letting me sing here," Lambert said the first time he addressed the crowd, "would not be who I am if not for Freddie." Rockabilly 'Crazy Little Thing Called Love', then came one of the highlights of the show with 'Somebody to Love', in an escalation of emotions that went with 'Love of My Life', where Brian May was alone in stage with his acoustic guitar, and thousands of voices singing along with Freddie Mercury's image on the screen. "Yesterday I went to El Paranal," said guitarist later in Spanish, "Do you know that the best astronomers in the world are in Chile?". That gave way to '39' and invited back on stage to Neil Fairclough (bass), Spike Edney (Queen keyboardist since 1981), Rufus Taylor (son of Roger on drums) and Roger to sing along.
Following the interpretation of Roger Taylor of 'Kind of Magic' and unnecessary solos of bass and drums, the band, along with Lambert, resumed with 'Under Pressure', which also marked one of the high points of the concert, with Taylor doing Bowie's voice and that of Mercury Lambert, and the phrase "why can not we give love ?!" exclamada by the audience. Wonderful. It was in the classics where the audience at the foot of Queen and Adam Lambert surrendered, singing and cheering all, but also, from the stage, delivery was impressive not only in terms of music and emotionally, but also technical, with a large round screen that served as backdrop and lighting effects that formed, for example, 'Who Wants to Live Forever?' as a tribute car and a salute to the immortal soul of Mercury.
Towards the end, they came together the hits 'Tie Your Mother Down' bouncy 'Do not Stop Me Now', 'Radio Gaga', 'I Want It All' and 'Bohemian Rhapsody' (the same song that Lambert auditioned "American Idol"), where images of the original video with Freddie Mercury, which subtly merged with the live and never denoted that was in the presence of a tribute band, as many fans feared were used. Lambert played with her voice easily, while May was unbeatable on guitar, and Taylor and his son formed a strong duo on drums. Night and culminating with a May almost in tears and about 20 thousand people who saw their expectations exceeded arrived 'We Will Rock You "and" We Are the Champions' par excellence, the most important stadium anthems. In just over two hours, the British and the American managed to reproduce the huge significance of Queen material without betraying the main thing: the heart.

Queen with Adam Lambert: A two-headed monster
Thursday, October 1, 2015 | 11:49 a.m.
Trying to be condescending at least possible, and leaving a little aside fanaticism aroused by this iconic group, it is possible to assert that when we speak of the present Queen , two factors that can not stand any kind of analysis: first, they are not looking for someone who is able to fill the void left by the charismatic figure of Freddie Mercury , but who feel and live their songs as if they were their own. And second, the revamped lineup that currently offer native of London, is by far the best of his attempts to republish beens since the death of its leader in 1991, being awarded in 2014 as the Band of the Year at the tenth version of Classic Rock Roll Of Honour Awards and as the Best Group of the Year at the Ultimate Classic Rock . In large part, the success of the second air that evidence Queen owes to successful incorporation into the voices of Adam Lambert , the talented young man who became known in the talent show American Idols, but in less than seven years has reaped a successful solo career with three studio albums under his arm, and whose innate artistic ability has deeply attracted the attention of Brian May and Roger Taylor .
This second visit of Queen to our country, after visiting in 2008 with Paul Rodgers on vocals, is part of the successful tour " Do not Stop Them Now ", being the Athletic Track of the National Stadium the place chosen to host a show It promises to be memorable. Early on, the arteries of the main sports stadium in the country began to be invaded by thousands of ecstatic fans eager to meet one of the key links in the history of rock. Ten minutes before the agreed time for the start of the show, a huge canvas, with the flagship feature of the band, completely covering the scene and immediately starts growing anxiety and nervousness among attendees. With a slight delay the lights go out, and begin to sound the power chords of " Red Special "Brian May who gives the first stroke of the hand of" One Vision ", sparking widespread euphoria.
The party continues with " Another One Bites The Dust "and" Fat Bottomed Girls "and being in evidence Lambert vocal ability, and perfect instrumentation that sounds clear from the first minute of the presentation. One of the first memorable moments of the evening comes to the interpretation of " Killer Queen "where the singer leans on a purple sofa with gold, displaying the histrionics won his theatrical past, while May accompanying with powerful sequences string. One by one are happening every fireproof successes that have marked the success story of Queen, true classics of rock history that domestic fans sing in unison, each time with more strength, becoming a unique and powerful voice The scenario involves a kind invisible wave that threatens to obliterate everything in its path.
" Crazy Little Thing Called Love , "" Somebody To Love ", a battery of successes that have transcended generations, and today versioned in the exquisite and powerful voice of Adam Lambert, who brings his characteristic vocal, getting good dividends the incorporation of new shades and textures to already consolidated parts. The role is assumed by the talented Brian May, who hangs an acoustic guitar to play the classic " Love Of My Life ", configuring one of the most beautiful postcards of the day, accompanying a public execution in the voices that borders on perfection, and Freddie Mercury's image projected on the main screen playing a snippet of the song. The guitarist says he visited the Paranal Observatory , which in Chile are the best astronomers in the world, then the dish with "repeats '39 "to what brings on stage to Roger Taylor and his son Rufus , bassist Neil Fairclough and keyboardist Spike Edney .
Comes the turn of the brilliance of Roger Taylor, first playing the classic " It's A Kind Of Magic "before participating in the bass solo Fairclough playing the strings with his sticks, ending with an entertaining duel of percussion against his son Rufus , where we witnessed a generational clash that wasted energy, power and talent. In " Under Pressure "iconic song originally recorded in 1981 by Queen and David Bowie , Lambert shares the vocals with the drummer, giving life to a version that while it is true remains to be compared to the original, gives good signals Connection partner. Averaging half of the presentation, a powerful turning point, where the spotlight falls on the shoulders of Lambert, who played exceptionally a rock version of "occurs Ghost Town , "the first single from their third full-length," The Original High "(2015), and has the approval of the attendees who enjoy the rhythm of the catchy melody.
A beautiful play of light takes center stage with " Who Wants To Live Forever ", then give way to an extended guitar solo by Brian May, extending a little more than necessary, but it serves to emphasize its impeccable ability technique and charisma. Adam Lambert is a complete artist, has the voice, the style, stage management and, above all, the connection with the rest of the band, mainly with May, producing a combination that flows naturally and authentic, and easily - for someone less seasoned in the history of Queen- could lead to the confusion of believing that take many years playing together. Indeed, between the singer and the musicians that special bond so hard to find is given, and where the main beneficiaries are the thousands of fans who repletaron the Athletic Track of the National Stadium, and are privileged to witness one of the best shows 2015, highlighting its quality.
The last part of the presentation has reserved a selection of legendary Queen hits " Do not Stop Me Now , "" Radio Ga Ga "," I Want It All "and also again appeal to emotion and memory the figure of the great Freddie Mercury, lead singer and images showing the original audio of the song " Bohemian Rhapsody , "where he shares vocals with Lambert. The band leaves the stage amid a standing ovation, returning after a few minutes to offer two resounding blows last night: " We Will Rock You "and" We Are The Champions ", with the thousands of fans chanting and accompanying based on the latest energy reserves left by the extensive show. A shower of gold confetti filled the sky Athletic Track of the National Stadium, this curtain down with the overwhelming passage of Queen through our territory.
When is a selection of tracks that could very well be an album of greatest hits, there is no room for discontent, much less when each of these pieces was perfectly executed, with great sound quality, and where the audience completely surrendered the proposed Queen and Adam Lambert. We lived in the Athletic Track of the National Stadium not only gives far exceed that shown in his previous visit in 2008, but will be recorded in the collective unconscious as an empirical demonstration of all elements to be amalgamated into a presentation of rock to be catapulted into the select group of the best shows I have passed through our territory. As mentioned during the presentation Lambert, this was the last show of Queen on tour in South America, with Chile being the privileged " the grand finale ", and no doubt the show of more than two hours put the finishing gold to a new sample of validity of a monster that refuses to go away.
