scotiaThere are two instances that I associate with held notes and they are Toronto 2014 Somebody to Love and Come To Me Bend to Me pre-Idol days. The STL one is "only" about 17-18 seconds but it was in concert with no preparation. Here it is isolated: www.youtube.com/watch?v=jedBoZCM-j4You could consider CTMBTM as pre-pop star but here it is at about the 2:00 minute mark. The phrase (not just note) is held into the next phrase "give me your lips" and is somewhere around 21 seconds. youtu.be/DJYyqzUr6jU?t=120Hope this helps.

SEATTLE MUSIC INSIDERAn Evening with Queen + Adam Lambert at the Tacoma DomeThe mighty rock and roll machine Queen, featuring vocalist Adam Lambert landed at the Tacoma Dome in Tacoma, WA for the second stop on their The Rhapsody Tour World Tour.
No opening band. Just an evening with Queen – which consists of Brian May (guitar / vocals), Roger Taylor (drums / vocals), Adam Lambert (lead vocals), and touring musicians Spike Edney (keyboards / vocals), Neil Fairclough (bass), and Tyler Warren (percussion / drums / vocals), as well as video montages and vocals by the late great Freddie Mercury. The band performed for over two and a half hours, regaling the crowd with songs from their storied five decade career.
As “Innuendo” played through the sound system, the house lights dimmed and the band made its way to the stage to perform “Now I’m Here,” “Seven Seas of Rhye,” and “Keep Yourself Alive” back to back with no breaks in between.
As the band launched into “Hammer to Fall,” Lambert continued to prove why he was an excellent pick to be the front man of Queen. His stage presence and command of the crowd makes him one of rock’s ultimate front persons.
The band played the perennial fan favorites “Somebody to Love,” “Fat Bottomed Girls,” and “Radio Ga Ga,” but they also touched on such gems such as “Dragon Attack,” “Love of My Life,” and “Doing All Right.”
Taylor also proved that he still has an awesome set of pipes by performing David Bowie’s part during “Under Pressure” as well as singing “I’m in Love With My Car.”
May also performed “Love of My Life” front and center, just him, his acoustic guitar, and his voice. He was then joined by Lambert and Taylor to perform “’39.” Later in the set May also performed a searing rendition of “Last Horizon” before tearing into a crowd pleasing guitar solo.
The band finished out the main part of their set with the fan favorites “Tie Your Mother Down,” “Another One Bites the Dust,” and “Bohemian Rhapsody.” If there was any doubt as to whether Lambert could pull off “Bohemian Rhapsody” late in the set, that was all cast aside.

Ahh yes I think you're right. They drove over the Bay Bridge and there are images of looking at SF as they drive over on his IG stories. I'm not seeing the photo with caption Pier 39 on his stories.. got that image from someone I thought had captured his IG story, but maybe not. Looks like they are in downtown with all the tall buildings in his latest IGs posts. I don't know anything about SF. Wonder would they stay in SF proper? or is San Jose a better place to spend the night. www.instagram.com/stories/javicostapolo/II legit was their all day @ SF (ok majority I just got back) !! Tall buildings might be the salesforce tower; I have been their- cool place, that has a legit park in/ around the tower.. It was a bit overcast/foggy chilly today (like usual);/ was at Levis near theirs. San Jose would not be better to stay only to closer to the SAP CENTER, but to stay-I'd pick SF, they have many nice high-end places near Pier 39 like the Hilton; San Jose doesn't have that great options, but do have some; SF just has more options and great places to eat. It's not that far unless traffic should take an hour if it's REALLY BAD. It's down the bay (SJ). I live halfway in between. Damn wished I knew; oh will see him with Queen the first time on Sunday with my god mother. ok the one thing i might not like is Brian may using a hologram; when he is touring- imo I am on the fence, I don't like that he wants to take advantage of that. I think that lazy, we pay to see him, not a technology- if you're going to tour LIVE; don't use it, I think I am ok using video for parts like the Freddy parts, but for Brian to use a hologram?? I'm on the fence on that- if you can't do the whole thing; then you shouldn't be touring- I'm not paying for a genuine fake performer that's fully capable performing- otherwise why do you 'say you are grateful of Adam- when you choose to use a hologram?? Sorry. That's the only thing I am not ok with. If they were going to do that - use a hologram; use Freddy for bits of it. imo not someone who is capable of performing. And if he isn't then what are you doing touring?Sorry, just my thoughts; not mad, just annoyed that he is using a hologram for this tour, that he is thinking of using it- for himself -he wanted to tour and should tour but don't use a hologram. What made him do it?

What made him do it? Wow. I did not for one second think that Brian meant that he was actually going to use a hologram of himself in the show. I thought he was making a clever joke about his cyborg outfit (which I think is fabulous, BTW). I think he is playing the part of a cyborg and is dressed in a cyborg outfit. It is a very clever idea, IMO. I believe we will see the real Brian throughout the show. I think he was just making a clever comment about his "persona" as a cyborg during that song. If I'm wrong, I will stand corrected.

And yes, Javi is a babe. A face like fine porcelain. Adam's face is like a sculpture done by a classis artist like Michelangelo or Da Vinci. Adam and Javi have profiles that are one-in-a-million.

adamlambert Love this quote from Michael Rietmulder’s Seattle Times review of The Rhapsody Tour. I’m serving the biggest heaping helping of Camp for hungry tummies all over the country. 💅🏻👑🌈 http://instagr.am/p/Bz37VETBldO

What made him do it? You might want to see the whole show before forming an opinion...I saw an earlier version of the tour a few years ago, and thought the hologram was extremely effective...had nothing to do with an inability to perform live. The Freddie hologram made me cry.
