I love chocolate candy and I love ice cream. When I eat ice cream I don't preface it with "It's no Hershey bar" because well, duh, it isn't. That's how I feel about the "he's no Freddie meme" it doesn't annoy me but I do say "well, duh, of course he isn't. On the plus side, the "he's no Freddie" has replaced all the Gay references we put up with forever. True! LOL |

I have a new comp and I'm starting to suspect that this is the reason. I don't have to reset my password but I can't remain logged in....it's weird. Me too except on my phone -- |

I spend as much time on Queen fanboards as I do Adam boards -- and for every negative post about Adam, there are several positive posts. It is a great ratio. There is a difference between the real Queen fan posts and the Adam hating trolls who post on YouTube and Yahoo and news articles. They are just trying to stir stuff up. I have spent time on Queen Forum since Hammersmith show. In the beginning I was upset but now I have crossed the line: I am confident and NOTHING can hurt my faith for Adam and QAL  I was never bothered by Queen fan posts but I am troubled by mis-characterization of the tone of posts by Queen fans. There were never very many negative posts. There are fewer now -- mostly by the same posters. There are some valid critiques on Queen sites --- for example, Roger backing off so much on this tour is notable. And the videos are mostly being taken by Adam fans and on some even when Brian is playing a solo, they stay on Adam. (Reminds me of how the Tommyberts film an Adam concert.) And the run that Adam added to WATC (which I also wish he would drop - it is not needed.) The funniest post I ever saw on a Queen fan site was a post after Winnipeg that said -- "This a video of his shoes that last over 30 seconds! During Brian's solo! What's with that? I just do not understand." Thankfully, no one explained. To a Queen fan who is used to people analyzing was that a clean F5 or not?, or what guitar effect did Brian use, or there were 4 bars of blah-blah in Brian's solo, the focus on fashion, makeup, costumes, hair, sexiness, Adam dancing, etc. is mystifying. It is very, very new and very different. Queen was and is many things but they were never sexy and they were never considered a "fashion band". That would be Bowie. |

Perhaps these Queen fans who complain about the Adam-centric videos should buy a damn ticket and make their own videos - that issue would be solved. I'm sorry, but I'm sick of it. |

That explains a lot |

That explains a lot I have not bothered to ask some of my Queen expert friends to research the "bra questions" but I think that yesterday was the first time anyone threw a bra on stage during a Queen concerts. (Yes, Freddie wore a bra on stage but that is different!!) That question might cause riots!! |

My thoughts exactly -- make your own damn video's then......
I was wondering if anything was being tossed on stage -- I was hoping roses. Personally, I was thinking of setting a champagne flute at the end of the catwalk. Did they open the bottle in Sask?
