THE KOREA HERALDQueen, Green Day, MIKA to have concerts in Korea this yearWorld-renowned bands and musicians will visit South Korea this year to hold concerts for longing enthusiasts here. British rock band Queen is the most anticipated foreign artist visiting Korea in 2020. The “Super Concert 25 QUEEN” will take place at Gocheok Sky Dome in western Seoul on Jan. 18-19 as part of the band‘s “The Rhapsody Tour” that kicked off in June last year. It will be the second performance in South Korea by the British band after one during the Super Sonic music festival in 2014. Queen’s 2020 Seoul concert comes after the success of the biopic film “Bohemian Rhapsody” in South Korea in 2018. The movie, which depicts the life of its lead singer Freddie Mercury, has attracted more than 9 million moviegoers in the country. Since Mercury‘s death in 1991, guitarist Brian May and drummer Roger Taylor have toured with vocalist Adam Lambert. www.koreaherald.com/view.php?ud=20200104000025

Does anyone know of or have a good youtube playlist with all of Adam's Official Videos for Velvet that will count towards Billboard? Please post it if you do. I've only found playlists with some but not all of his official videos, and am looking for a playlist that has them all, without extraneous other videos.. Thanks!

lurleene, you make a lot of good points. I try to be a realist about Adam's solo music success. Why he does not do better on the charts is beyond me. His music is as good as anybody's, yet his fanbase does not grow. It's a puzzle we cannot seem to solve. But I do believe that our continued support doing the only things that we CAN do for him are still important. Buying, streaming, downloading, viewing. I don't know what else there is to do. We vote for him, we retweet stuff about him, we request his songs. His solo. music should be his meat and potatoes. QAL should be a delicious dessert. I don't know the answer but I do know that I will stream Velvet Side B and the whole album as much as I can. He needs a mega-hit. SP has done well, but it's not a super-hit. Wish he gets some new opportunities to diversify. Just went to the movies today and saw Little Women (excellent!). They ran a preview for the Aretha Franklin film starring Jennifer Hudson. She'll likely get an Oscar nom for her role. Jennifer doesn't do much recording work. Doesn't tour her music. She's been luck to get into acting a bit, and product sponsor, etc. And a role in this new movie is a real coup. Would love to see Adam get more chances at an acting role. Something in your post struck me -- "It's a puzzle we cannot seem to solve." I don't think fans can do much about radio airplay or even streaming number.
Adam once talked about the importance of "timing" -- perhaps someone else remembers where and when this was. But I think it is a matter of an artist and a song matching a moment.
Very, very few artists have multiple #1 hit songs. Very few even have 1 Top 10 hit. Right now, seems to be Lizzo's moment. And I am OK with that.
For me, radio hits are pretty meaningless. I want Adam to be recognized as a great vocalist and performer. That does not happen in a moment -- it happens over time. I believe that 2019 was Adam's best year. And I honestly believe 2020 will be better.

I wish i knew which soap cih appeared in 😅
I saw the Preview to 'respect' with Jennifer Hudson and i'm massively looking forward to it. Just saw "dreamgirls", and must say it's a great movie! I can totally recommend it.
Unfortunately i still have to wait a few weeks to see little women.

Thanks! I was wondering who he was. I have heard of that show but haven't seen it. I've not seen Torchwood either. But it is a spin off of Doctor Who and John Barrowman played the same character on Doctor Who.
