True!! Though I think the lack of By the Rules on the US CD is the bigger tragedy. Totally agree! Unpopular perspective I know but I really really really don't like By the Rules and am so glad wasn't part of album I bought ... #carryon |

I am intrigued by this tweet question... Dr. Brian May @drbrianmay QUEEN meeting for us tomorrow. Some nice decisions to make. What does it mean to BE Queen ? Bri Queen was as much about Brian and the band (how I saw them as a fan in the 70's) as it was about Freddie. It was like there were two forces that met and often created something new and brilliant. To me, it was that collision of theatricality and innovation (Freddie) and metal musicality (Brian) that made Queen. OMG.. you're like spot on. Though I'm sure that Roger has his influence, but I think Freddie and Brian had the most.
Brian said that Adam brings that youth energy to the band. Some of it's right, but I think Adam brings back that same vocal range and that theatricality that has been missing since Freddie died. With Adam the band is now able to perform all the hard rock songs that they used to perform with Freddie and this ability invigorates Brian & Roger and the other band members. It's allowing them to go down the memory lane again. It's not the same but still this makes them feel young again.
I think I summarized this last week that for people who likes classical music will prefer Adam or his singing style because even though he's singing rock song he still gives his classical influences to the song. And yes you can see the contrast and l think hanging out with Brian & Roger few times really help Adam to grow, more than just his confidence on stage. |

Tantalizing little nugget there. Lots of speculation can come of it. It seems very likely one of the decisions is where to perform. I don't think the decision is "with whom as frontman?" However, the question about BEING Queen raises eyebrows as Adam, Brian and Roger have all been clear that Adam is NOT a member of Queen, but just a guest artist. So, he will not BE Queen. Hmmmm. Also, "QUEEN meeting for US tomorrow." Who is "US?" Roger and Brian? The other band members too? Adam via Skype? PR and management? Promoters? Oh, I have so many questions! Please, it is now mid afternoon in London. Brian, tweet some updates!
7hrs to late to respond but when Brian said "Queen meeting for Us", to me it means Queen (Brian & Roger), their management, Spike and other band members. Adam and his management will not be included. However I'd like to think that if Queen has considered to do few tours next year and if they want Adam to be part of the tour, they have informed Adam/DMG about it.
Coming out of lurking to say I thought I read that Queen said with or without Adam there would be a tour. Guest stars are the occasional special gig a full tour is just hired help. I'm confused why people are so sure there will be an Queen/Adam tour and why would they even want that. 2-3 special gigs is OK but a tour?. Brian is going on tour in Feb with Kerry Ellis and we don't know for how long. Kerry Ellis @kerryjaneellis1 10 Dec Great day rehearsing with @drbrianmay for our tour in feb ! Have you got your tks yet ?! If there will be a Queenbert tour it would be sometime after March which is suppose to be Adam's time. Either way having a tour at all is once again right in the middle of another album era. I really believe the reason why we had a tour the first time was because Adam and his people already knew there would be no album support for TSP. I think they took the opportunity for $$$. It can't be for exposure because from a marketing point fronting a 40yr band performing old songs isn't going to do anything for Adam's actual career. If there will be a Queen tour than I would have to believe that they know Adam's US audience. No management in their right mind would have their popstar tour with a band that doesn't expose him to a more current audience unless they think that is the best they got. Cover album? heh. Those glee fans aren't going to run out and buy Queen tickets. Not. going. to. happen. which leads be to say why even do it. Shoshanna is Adam's publicist so it's her job to say good things are coming and in Shoshanna's world that doesn't give me much confidence. Also Adam says every year that the next will rock. My worst fear is the big 2014 news for Adam is going to be Queen tour. Can you tell I'm not as enthusiastic for Adam/Queen. Waste of time. |
