QUEEN AND ADAM LAMBERT TO PLAY IHEART RADIO FESTIVAL
Rockers to take to stage in Las Vegas in September

Adam Lambert will be appearing with legendary rockers Queen again a for live performance at the iHeart Radio Music festival in Las Vegas.

Last year, Queen performed three sold out shows with the Pop Idol contestant at the Hammersmith Apollo in London and also appeared in Poland, Russia and Ukraine.

Described by Queen guitarist Brian May as 'an amazing artist' and 'a really nice guy', the collaboration is still going strong. The group will be playing on the MGM Grand Garden Arena stage as part of the iHeart Radio Music festival, alongside appearances from Sirs Paul McCartney and Elton John as well as Justin Timberlake, Katy Perry and Maroon 5.

Festival host Ryan Seacrest commented “Last year, the iHeartRadio Music Festival sold out in minutes...This year, the iHeartRadio Music Festival becomes a trilogy -- remixing, redefining and rewriting music history. I couldn't be more excited to be a part of this must-see, one-of-a-kind total music experience.”

The Festival will be broadcast live across 150 radio channels in America, and The CW will broadcast a two night special on 30 September and 1 October.

Queen and Adam Lambert will be playing at the iHeart Radio Music Festival on 20 and 21 September. For more information visit Gigwise gig tickets.

And Miley obviously had Adam on her mind...outta all the big names, she blurted out "Glambert". Maybe she knows something...lol.
I'm just kidding...kinda/sorta. I think there's a good relationship between Adam and Miley.

I noticed this too. Hmmm... At the very least it implies that the Queenbert announcement was considered BIG news. IMO, Ryan did not seem too pleased at this premature verbal ejaculation.

I looked back through thread looking for the link where Miley blurts "Glambert" and couldn't find it. Does anyone have the link, pretty please with sugar on it. :-*

I really don't think there will be special guests within the Queen set. I think the initial wording of the announcement was just confusing. Ryan (and radio stations) will be announcing some additional performers and guests as the concert gets closer. This is what happened last year.

I agree, but whether he's one frontman or one of five is not that important. IHR is just a concert. Though it's an honor for Adam, it's immaterial for his career. I want new music for myself, and I want the new music to find an audience for his sake. For that he needs consistent promotion and now a label, and IHR won't give him either. Glee is far more promising, yet still a gamble. It can lead to fans and sales only if they make the audience care for him long term. Otherwise, it'll be like PLL, which changed little. We're still where we were post tsp, but with no label (as yet), and one major glimmer of hope: Glee, not Queen.

I couldn't really care.. the way the bill it as "Special Performance from Queen & Adam Lambert" .. so.. it's still win/win

It's been an incredible news week and I'm exhausted from trying to keep up with it. LOL As excited as I am for everything that is happening for Adam, I must also tell you how disappointed I am. Since before this news cycle started up, I have been having a recurring dream for about the past 6 weeks. I usually don't remember my dreams but this one I remember because I wake up so excited that it might come true. I keep dreaming that Adam and Queen put on a concert and it's at Radio City Music Hall in NYC. At first I thought it was at Madison Garden until I recognized the very distinct stage of RCMH. When Adam said that something was coming with Queen, I really hoped that my dream was not just a dream but a premonition. But now that Brian has said there will only be two performances and that one is in Las Vegas and one in London, you can imagine my disappointment. I hope I still keep having the dream because it's a fun dream and I have a really good seat in orchestra section.

I hope everyone who can make the trip to Las Vegas is able to get tickets. I wish I could but I can't go for health reasons. I'll be there in spirit though that's for sure.

Did Miley say, after her blurt, that "we (I presume she and Adam) might get into a little diva(?) fight." It was said with excitement and humor and I think referenced her comment that no Diva wigs had been thrown in previous years. I loved her enthusiasm about Glambert.
