Gigwise @gigwise Could we see a new album from Queen, featuring Adam Lambert replacing Freddie Mercury? ow.ly/n4UF3012mXA COULD WE SEE A NEW ALBUM FROM QUEEN FEATURING ADAM LAMBERT?The new frontman says he's open to new material Adam Lambert has been touring with Queen as replacement for the late, great Freddie Mercury for quite some years now - and now he says that he's game for recording new material with the rock legends. Ahead of their headline slot at the Isle Of Wight Festival this weekend, Lambert told Digital Spy that he would glady make a record with the 'Bohemian Rhapsody' icons, providing the sound was right. "If something sounds cool and it's the right thing to do at the right time, then I'm game," he said. "I haven't heard anything like that come up. But also, maybe it's an issue of, is that Queen without Freddie? He added: "To me, Queen is... that's why we're billed as Queen plus Adam Lambert. I'm their guest who's filling in by singing these songs and having a great time doing it. But it's not necessarily Queen." Speaking to Gigwise about Lambert's role in the band, guitarist Brian May said: "He brings new blood; he brings enthusiasm, energy and opportunity. How could we do this without him If you looked for someone like that you would never find them." When we asked last year if we could expect a new album, he replied: "Not at the moment for Queen, no," he replied. "I’m writing for a project I’m doing with Kerry Ellis at the moment got a couple of new things for that she’s a nice outlet and it’s stuff I’m very excited about." Queen are set to play the Isle of Wight Festival alongside The Who, Stereophonics and Faithless this weekend. See the full tour dates below. For tickets, and more information visit here. Thursday 9 June - Isle of Wight - Isle of Wight Festival Sunday 22 May - Barcelona, Spain - Palau San Jordi Friday 27 May - Cologne, Germany - RheinEnergie Station Wednesday 15 June - Brussels, Belgium - Palais 12 Saturday 25 June - Piazzolla sul Brenta, Italy - Anfiteatro Camerini

EDMTunes @edmtunes These are @felixjaehn top songs so far edmtunes.com/2016/06/top-four-tracks-felix-jaehns-career/CGH on #1! 1. Steve Aoki & Felix Jaehn – Can’t Go HomeAn unexpected collaboration with Steve Aoki and Adam Lambert brought out an entirely new sound and style from Felix. The pop-focused track had him stepping outside his comfort zone and proving that he could excel in more than one genre.

So how likely is it that Adam wins that country Award? I guess depends who else has been voting. And I think a QAL Album well happen. I think it all depends on timing. I agree it won't be a Queen album. I guess they could just put QAL on the cover.

Q SFX @qsfx The full story on our #sfx for #Queen and @adamlambert this summer! www.q-sfx.co.uk/#!Queen-Adam-Lambert-Festival-Tour/c1814/5755a0e90cf2b2ec517ebf7c Tiny url article: tinyurl.com/ztxh3ckQueen & Adam Lambert, Festival Tour 2016 June 8, 2016
Quantum is very excited to be back on the road with the legendary Queen and their new front man Adam Lambert. They are headlining multiple festivals across Europe this summer and we are helping the British rockers add an extra dimension to their iconic set with two select special effects. First up in the show is our CO₂ jets for song 'I Want It All,' which appears just over halfway through the band's set. As Brian May comes to the end of an epic guitar solo, jets positioned on the downstage edge release 16 streams of CO₂ in salutation to the musical moment. With eight jets on either side the central runway, the smokey currents create a perfect frame around the performers before they go on to finish the song. You can catch effect in action below. youtu.be/H8K9Q3MxWJY?t=5m12sReturning for the finale and everybody's favourite sing-along tune 'We are the Champions,' Quantum releases a shimmering hit of golden 55x17mm mylar confetti, which in layman's terms means very big and shiny (please note some festivals will have yellow confetti instead of gold). Due to its shape and size the mylar confetti falls gently to the ground, spinning as it goes and creating a longer lasting spectacle for the audience to enjoy at the end of the show. To have maximum impact and coverage we are using 6 blowers to propel18kg of confetti each show, stationing two in the stage left pit, two in the stage right pit, and one either side of the front of the B stage. One fan at the recent Cologne show has managed to capture the happy experience of being right next to a blower as it is fired, you can watch it here. It is always a pleasure to work for Queen and Adam Lambert and we'd like to say thanks to all the teams involved for a great production and for having us back!
