Nice to see Tori Kelly on Colbert. We watch him every night but not usually late enough to see the musical guests. I sure wish Adam would get a late-night sit-down and/or performance spot on Colbert, Kimmel or Fallon. I think he'd be especially good with Colbert. Fingers crossed that Adam's Velvet promo will be pretty strong and that we see him on some pretty media. I sure hope the Velvet release dates and Global Citizen timing will land Adam on Colbert!

And as to the Freddie/Adam voice discussion on the previous thread, I agree whole-heartedly that a singer's legacy often grows to drastic proportions after they die. Freddie was a really great singer. No doubt about that. But vocally, Adam has him beat. Doesn't mean you have to "like" Adam better. Just means the voices are different. This is a debate that is based on emotion. It will probably never end. I agree. I try to listen to Freddie with a fair heart but I really do think Adam is the better vocalist. And I think Freddie was one of the better frontmen in his era and earned that recognition. Adam is a great frontman now. But Adam does invite a lot of the Freddie is better comparisons because he says it at every concert. If you open the door, people are going to feel free to walk thru it. Fans hear it and the press will repeat it. Not sure what the purpose of that is but it takes humble to a whole other level that is probably not needed. So if he says it the others will say it too, over and over again even if it makes little sense. And it makes little sense no matter who is saying it or the purpose. And it is not a matter of replacing Freddie. Freddie is not here. But you have a gift and you are giving it. And you are on the stage so it is not disrespectful to own your talent. It is a gift to fans and to Brian and Roger to bring this music to life. Even some of the tweets from fans, who clearly think Adam is special, sometime lead with you are not Freddie but. And that is something they have just heard so they repeat it, lol.

Wonder if Adam took a picture with Meatloaf? They are old friends as well.

It’s like Adam’s insta chat never happened here.. I wasn’t awake during it live but watched this morning and I thought there was good information in it regarding the new era, which isn’t always the case.
My show is this weekend. I’m actually hoping for no Dragon Attack as I find it a little dull and non-melodic. Bring back Machines please! But whatever the choice of those two, please don’t drop TSMGO.

I’m actually hoping for no Dragon Attack as I find it a little dull and non-melodic. Bring back Machines please! But whatever the choice of those two, please don’t drop TSMGO. I actually just now got a chance to watch the chat from last night. I really appreciate that Adam sang for 2-1/2 hrs. and then turned around to talk to his fans for 23 minutes...well, mostly talked. I find some of these "talks" a bit tedious as fans keep asking the same questions over and over (eyeliner, really?), and apparently some fans ask inappropriate questions (he chose to deliberately ignore some of them, per Adam), but then I realize his fans are all over different time zones, and some of us aren't even on Instagram, and some aren't getting notifications...so I suppose he's kind of lucky any fans show up at all. I did find it interesting that he thought there would be a couple of shows before the entire album is out...hm, something to look forward to. I wonder if that's already all planned, or if it's hopeful thinking on his part. I'm getting excited about the new album (in its entirety). I haven't had a chance to pre-order. I'm getting ready to head out with my daughter for the day. I only have her for about another week, and then she's moving to Scotland for at least a year or two. She just came back from Japan a couple of months ago, lived there for 7 years, so I'm hoarding mother-daughter time like crazy.
