Nannygoat, I'm a very quiet Atopian (mostly a lurker!) but I'll be there!! My very first time to see Adam live -- I can hardly wait!!! I'm going too!!! This is my first post but I have been an Adam fan from the time he was on Idol. Lurking at Atop is such fun, it helps to know that my obsession is shared by so many. Hey bb! WELCOME !!!! |

Okay folks -- I just went over to look at how many tickets are left for Vancouver and they now have an interactive map. They have just opened up tickets for the two rows in front of the thrust and some just to the side -- all excellent tickets! If you have the $$ for them, they are $395.00 each but sooooo close to the stage! Run fast!

Yes, the Forum, sorry. If Adam said himself that they had agreed, I don't think there can be much doubt left on who invited whom. Maybe 'invite' is not the right word, maybe the better phrasing would be 'who made the first step towards putting into realization something Adam and Brian and Roger had already discussed among themselves'.Okay, labels have nothing to do with tours, but maybe Adam's new label gave him an incentive, concurring that the tour would be a wise idea, strategically speaking? Just speculating:))) My interpretation of "agreed": B&R agreed to promoter(s)'s offer for the NA tour which was/were precipitated by the iHeart performance and it had nothing to do with Adam/Adam's team.>> Brian credited Adam for bringing them into iHR.... Brian said similar things in the iHR green room interview. Just my guess on the path -- iHeart Radio Music Festival almost certainly came from DMG who represents Katy Perry and Adam. I think it was connected to Katy's appearance. Why not close with Katy Perry? It was too early for her to perform her new music but PRISM was going to be released in October 2013. She did Roar and Dark Horse and older hits. >> Katy struggled with Dark Horse, she was not ready to perform a long set of new material. IMO it was a lackluster set and NOT as good as she is in concert. >> iHR Music Festival does not book many classic acts, it is a Radio (Pop, Urban and Country + a bit of rock) promo concert. The iHeartRadio Music Festival is co-produced by John Sykes, President of Entertainment Enterprises for Clear Channel and Tom Poleman, President of National Programming Platforms for Clear Channel Media and Entertainment. It is the biggest of the biggest radio promo concerts. iHR (owned by Clear Channel Broadcasting, Inc.) has 1,500 live radio stations from coast-to-coast including pop, country, urban, rock, talk, and college. About 70 of these stations play classic rock including Queen regularly. >> iHR did not invite Queen to perform at iHR. They invited Queen + Adam Lambert to perform at iHR. >> iHR has only closed a night with 1 act that involved classic era artists...Queen + Adam Lambert. Here are the 6 past closers...in the 3 years of iHR MF... 2011 night 1 Jay-Z featuring Alicia Keys (on 1 of 14 songs), night 2 Lady Gaga featuring Sting (on 2 of 13 songs) 2012 night 1 Rihanna (14 songs), night 2 Pitbull featuring Ne-Yo (on 1 of 11 songs) 2013 night 1 Queen + Adam Lambert featuring fun. (on 2 of 10 songs), night 2 Justin Timberlake (10 songs) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IHeartRadio_Music_FestivalThere were three classic artist on the 2 day bill in 2013 -- Paul McCartney - "New" album released in the United States on 15 October 2013, now on tour. Elton John - Was promoting "Diving Board" his new album. released 13 September 2013. And Queen who was promoting.....? Looks like they were playing the long game. Every artist on that bill was promoting something. My guess is this tour has been in planning for a long time. They did iHR to prove to Live Nation and the A Level venues that this is an arena act. > The last Queen US Tour was in 1982 and not sold out. Q+PR US was not a financial success. > Queen did not sign their new label deal with UMG until Dec 2013 -- and now they have a new album in the works. That had to be in place first. They needed a global distribution deal in the wake of the EMI breakup. They left EMI in 2010 music.yahoo.com/blogs/amplifier/big-blow-for-emi-label-loses-queen-and-major-lawsuit.html but they did not have a long term deal with UMG unitl Dec 2, 2013 www.universalmusic.com/corporate/detail/2674 |
