Re-posting from the concert thread.

19 June, 2014: Queen and Adam Lambert kicked off their 2014 tour last night at Chicago's United Centre. The transatlantic pairing aren't bringing their shows to the UK anytime soon, but let's not dwell on that one...

The band, and their now-regular frontman performed an impressive, 24-song set packed with some of the biggest rock anthems in history. 'Another One Bites The Dust'? Check. 'Under Pressure'? Obviously. 'Bohemian Rhapsody'? Well duh.

Outside of the ubiquitous "no FM" trope, a great review.

Also, I would point out to RS that for their final point, "The wardrobe department came through bigtime", the wardrobe department owed a big debt of gratitude to Adam's closet. 8-)
