A crackling thunder Queen + Adam Lambert defy the rain in RheinEnergieStadion Cologne
For open-air events is always the risk that they will fall in literally into the water. A not very full house and pouring rain in Cologne RheinEnergieStadion ask for Queen + Adam Lambert on her only Germany stop this year, however, is not a problem.
Undoubtedly include Queen of the biggest rock bands of all time. Since the tragic AIDS death of their legendary frontman Freddie Mercury in November 1991, the remaining members Brian May and Roger Taylor have repeatedly struggled through new projects with other staff who do not encounter nearly all long-established fans on reciprocal love. Since 2012 the two great-Queens with former American Idol Adam Lambert Vice traveling.
After a successful European tour last year, making the three to support her longtime keyboardist Spike Edney, bassist Neil Fairclough and Taylor's son Rufus Tiger as the second drummer in 2016 again uncertain the continent. Your single Germany appointment in this case represents the open-air event in not nearly sold-out Cologne RheinEnergieStadion which vonstattengeht under worst weather conditions.
Americana at its best As the opening act Larkin Poe enters the stage without any audiovisual frills, the arena is then initially empty accordingly. Nobody can blame the spectators that they would rather hold out in the face of the pouring rain for a while at the beer stalls, hot dog stands or other dry places. The group from Georgia led by lead singer and guitarist Rebecca Lovell still makes the best of it for quite adverse conditions.
Larkin Poe showcase their own style of roots rock, an energetic mixture of all sorts of styles, they have to offer the US South. That it sometimes flashes off and on over the stadium and a first roll of thunder is heard, fits it all too well into the picture. Both Lovell Sisters Megan and especially Rebecca, form the heart of Larkin Poe, sweep constitutes, like the storm over the still spartan stage.
A kind of magic During the remodeling phase, the queen crew must then do something, to Brian May, Roger Taylor and Adam Lambert can start. Meanwhile, the rain has increased to such an extent that first puddles have formed on the stage. But who now thinks that the bad weather will affect the mood of the audience, is mistaken. Those who are already in the interior, despite the wet conditions are great mood.
Under these circumstances put Queen + Adam Lambert then going on as the fire department to continue to keep the viewers happy. After Tape Intro "A Kind Of Magic", the veterans and the young singer storming to "One Vision" into the stadium and wait here in the same with some optical gimmicks. Guitarist May congratulate his paying guests on the right side of the arena with hat while Lambert introduces the other end in rivets leather jacket and futuristic sunglasses.
The harder, the better Ever drive Queen and their support at the initial stage first on more rocking numbers straight. In "Hammer To Fall" follows a sort of medley of the early works "Seven Seas Of Rhye" and "Stone Cold Crazy", so that even the durchnässteste audience slowly but surely comes to operating temperature. When the band after Brian Mays passes "White Man" intro in the distinctive chorus of "Fat Bottomed Girls", the resonance knows from the stands no bounds.
Then it let Queen + Adam Lambert tackle once more quiet, to enjoy themselves and the audience a breather. With "Play The Game" there is a first interesting, albeit slightly failed upgrade from last year's concerts. Part like that of not always knotless sound quality to be owed at the stadium, in part it is also due to Lambert, for whose voice the song is not necessarily the best choice.
The legend is celebrated The directly subsequent "Killer Queen" is the front man all the more. In theatrical poses that have the self extravagance not averse Mercury certainly fallen, he lolls on a antique looking armchair. Then Lambert directed for the first time a few words to the audience and thanked for its acceptance. For him it was a dream come true to be able to sing the songs of his idol, together with the remaining rock legends.
The shows are a tribute to Freddie Mercury, and just as he earlier celebrated the new man in his place with his old band the success of "I Want To Break Free". An equally compelling figure, Lambert in another classic from the pen of Queens legendary original singer. "Somebody To Love" seems to him as tailored to the body, and the band completed the piece in an altered form in very energetic, perfect drying, albeit an unusual manner.
An entire stadium in his hand After this cracking final first necessity of repeating breather. First, Brian May is going to the front end of the stage and asks the audience on to brighten the stadium. His wish is their command. Soon the arena resembles a sea of lights. The guitarist but just heard the old guard of rock gods. A word is enough, and in almost biblical sense arises gooseflesh atmosphere at its best. As with any concert lately utilizes May the chance for a selfie.
He then continues with the acoustic guitar in hand and umbrellas on right in front of the audience and does another Mercury jewel, the beautiful ballad "Love Of My Life" at. How otherwise used for decades, viewers begin without much intervention from Mays side and strings to sing the piece of his lungs. Somewhere above the cloud cover Mercury is a mischievous grin at that moment can hardly resist.
