Philadelphia, Pennsylvania has no hate crime statute. Two weeks ago, two gay men were badly beaten in Center City, Philadelphia, by a group of 15-20 people, men and women from Bucks County, which is a suburb of Philadelphia. As of Friday September 26th, three people have been charged with various charges, two men and one woman. Most people mistakenly thought that this was a hate crime, but since Philadelphia had no such law on the books, these people were not charged under the law, as having committed a hate crime. This group of people had shouted gay slurs, upon encountering the two gay men. Legislators met and demonstrated in Harrisburg, this week to protest and file motions to have crimes against sexual orientation covered under the law as a hate crime. There was a large LGBT rally in Philadelphia to show support for the two men, one of who will require facial surgery and has his jaw wired shut.

Whenever we get Adam's new music, I hope it sells well, after all the adulation/exposure from the tour with Queen. Everyone now knows how great his voice is and what a performer Adam is. I also hope he's scheduled in a bit of down time for himself, just to relax and regroup.

Anxious for the new music, but Adam deserves some kind of chill out time, in order to transition on to his next phase. More videos please. TY

Aww. Our summer of countless access to pic and the voice of Adam is about to send us into deep withdrawal. The shows were beyond imagining and even after being at two of them I felt like I missed so much. Thank god for all those who did the videos and allowed all of us attendees or not to be a part of most of the shows. This has been an feast of musical riches and while I want Adam's new music, there's going to be a void, left by the absence of almost daily Queen and Adam Lambert shows. What a great summer, this has been. WOW

I wrote this in 2012 after first QAL and I will repeat it now - IMHO first of all there is need for a better backing band for Adam. Because the difference is just painfull to watch and hear and you can't really to evolve and iprove when you stick to mediocrity out of loyalty. And I really appreciate his loyalty. I too think that after touring with the Ferrari otherwise known as Queen, Adam will want the full musical dynamics backing him up, when preparing his musical offering. Just stands to reason, that Adam will want all the bells and whistles, after seeing the possibilities of what can be with Queen, who are known for being nightmarish about how to perform even a single note. Queen always had "rows" over how to express themselves via their music and held each other to the highest standard.

Although we won't have much money for the foreseeable future, this has been a great summer, getting to see Adam and Queen doing what they love to do. So many non believers to witness greatness show after show to the delight of mostly all. This has got to result in many more new fans for Adam's music and his fan base. I'll buy whatever is put out by Adam and Queen, together or separately. Another go round on the tour (s) will be more than welcomed in 2015, as long as Queen's collective health holds up. The exhilaration and joy will be missed as this Tour winds down and I hope they continue as soon as reasonably possible and that Adam gets his own music out asap, so as to capitalize on all the new interest in him.

I'm honestly surprised the man can still hear after 750+ concerts, given his reputation for keeping all his monitors turned up to 11. I said something similar to the sound check guy. He laughed and said Brian has better hearing than Roger. Go figure. I recall reading that Roger is deaf, wears hearing aids.

Just glad it happened at someone else's concert and not the two I attended in the US. Seems as if she didn't know the words to the song. Gaga has played with Brian before, hence the professional relationship and we all know how gracious Queen are, not to mention Adam. It happened and it's over. Perhaps some of her fans will now tune into Queen and Adam, so some good may come out of this. Would be a shame if this overshadows the perfection we've all seen and heard from Queen and Adam, concert after concert.

Ok gonna put this out there ahead of the show - I know people are happy for Gaga to join them for a song yada yada yada. And it must have been at Dr Bri's behest but the small mean part of me doesn't like the idea of Adam having to yet again step back so some bigger name can have their five minutes with Queen. It's not enough he has to compete with a dead man every night now madam is going to horn in and you can just predict the reviews and what focus will be. Yes I get it will be good press exposure. Yes I get reflected glory. Still don't like it. Ok done now. #carryon. #enjoyshow #savingmyselfforFriday Agree. Maybe if she knew the words.
