From Trompettefille t.co/698QuIusDD"I just got home from Chicago and I am still freakin out about the fact that I have seen Queen. Live... I never thought I’d get the chance to do this. And Adam lambert was amazing. He was great. He’s a great performer, he’s charismatic, he’s funny, he’s sexy, talented, and had fantastic outfits. His voice is so strong and though he is different from Freddie, he did very well with Queen as the main vocalist. I just don’t even know how else to convey my emotions over this concert. Thursday night was one of the best nights of my life." Yay for "DIFFERENT from Freddie" ... SO MUCH BETTER than "he's NO Freddie" .... from now on, I'm going to believe that's what the reviewers and commenters really mean. ETA: Hey JustKaren!

So Elvis was known as The King and there have been various other incarnations of musical and/or vocal royalty such as The Queen of Soul, The Godfather of Soul, The King of Pop, The Godfather of Grunge, etc.- all of which usually include some sort of reference to genre. As Adam's abilities defy genre I hereby officially nominate the honorific designation "The New King" as his nom de guerre. Anyone with me on this? I don't think this is the place to ask the question .... I mean ... duh ... of course glamberts agree, maybe you ask at a more neutral place ..... because here, you will only get yesses ...

Bohemian Rhapsody - Queen & Adam Lambert - Winnipeg - June 21 2014 adamfan4ever339 What in the world is wrong with me? I've seen QAL for a couple of times performing "Bohemian Rhapsody" now but maybe because Vegas is getting nearer I get so emotional. I was actually crying like a baby when I watched this video. I know these are the times where history is made. These are the times I will tell my grandkids about when I tell them about my life. These concerts are so iconic and wonderful - maybe we'll all look back later in our lives and laugh and cry and think "OMG - I WAS THERE!". I remember some things in my life so very clear as if they happened yesterday and I know exactly where I was and what I was doing when I heard some specific news. Lady Dianas wedding - and her tragic accident, 9/11, the fall of the Berlin wall and of course - Freddie's death. He was so dear to me and my mother that we were jumping like lunatics through our living room when he was singing "Barcelona" with Montserrat Caballe - because it was so damn special and wonderful. And I remember the emptiness and the great loss I was feeling when I heard about his death. So seeing Adam, whom I love so dearly, singing with Freddie, whom I still love so, so very much, makes me cry my eyes out. But in a happy way!!!!! I just can't wait for Vegas! Oh and a Happy Birthday to betty, letmeseeyastrut and revlisacat! I know this shouldn't been posted here, but I hope for forgiveness

www.nydailynews.com/entertainment/summer-guide-concerts-article-1.1824481Ultimate Summer Guide: ConcertsAll the best music coming to the Big Apple area Queen/Adam part: Queen and Adam Lambert (July 17, Madison Square Garden):It’s hard to imagine anybody with the lungs, and character, to take the mike of the late Freddie Mercury. Except for Adam Lambert. While Queen offered a dubious tour some years ago with the wonderful, but deeply inappropriate, singer Paul Rodgers in Freddie’s place, this event looks like it will make up for that entirely. Lambert was born for the part.

This is exactly the feeling that I was attempting to convey in my poorly worded and misunderstood post yesterday.
