Thank you Q3, murly, and mirages for the suggestions. I will actually try the breathing thingy before each song. Wish me luck! And thanks guys. I bet just setting your intention like this will help. I'd love to hear if the breathing helps -- wish I'd thought of it at my shows! |

Maybe someone here can help me. I have 2 floor tickets for the Houston show, bought at separate times, I'm trying to decide if I should keep both and move between the 2 during the concert or sell one of them. One is in floor A, row 10, seat 1 and the other is floor E, row 2, seat 1. Anyone have any ideas about which would be the best seat?. I can't find a seat map that shows the actual rows so I could see where the floor A ticket is in regard to the thrust. Decisions, decisions!! My advice is to use your Floor A seat and sell Floor E, Row 2 Seat 1. I was in Row 11 on the catwalk on the catwalk in Chicago -- which lined up to the middle of the circle (stage B) and it was a stellar seat. I am 99.999999% sure it is much better than Floor E Row 2 -- that is much further back and has a 8 rows between it and the catwalk, plus a walkway in front of it. Thanks for the info! |

Love this! mmadamimadamm @mmadamimadamm 1m FROM AN IDFer... LOVE, LOVE, LOVE THIS!!! "The reviews so far for this tour have been rightly admiring, but (cont) tl.gd/n_1s29ubg
TwitLonger
"The reviews so far for this tour have been rightly admiring, but it amuses me no end that most (if not all) of the critics feel compelled to say that of course Adam Lambert is no Freddie Mercury. Would those same critics have recognized Freddie's genius back in the days before he was a legend? Or, for that matter, the glory of Queen?
It's easy to forget that Queen didn't enjoy anything like universal critical acclaim back in the 1970s & 1980s. Nor were Freddie's vocal gifts fully appreciated. Even Rolling Stone, which gave only 3.5 stars to the classic Queen album A Night at the Opera, was writing in the 1970s that Freddie had merely "a serviceable voice"!
My favourite retort so far to the "Ah, but he's not Freddie" reviewers was this comment in response to the snooty music critic of the Calgary Herald:
'I'll raise you a history lesson.
In 1977 Bill Lindsay, of the Calgary Herald, reviewed Queen's show at the Jubilee Auditorium. He had this to say about the band; "It would be a major mistake to believe that this British glitter quartet is original. They owe an immense debt to the likes of David Bowie, Lou Reed and even The Rolling Stones in their staging and persona, if not in their music." He then chided Brian May for being too serious about his finger work and pointed out absurdities in the staging. He wasn't all the impressed with Freddie either; "Mercury was "decked in white tights exposing his chest, cavorted about the stage in a manner very much like the emcee in the film “Cabaret.” No mention of his iconic vocal prowess or incomparable stage persona. It seems this reviewer had no idea what he was witnessing. Funny how history repeats itself.'
Brilliant.
What's the bet that twenty years from now, reviewers will be saying of an up-and-coming singer of exceptional ability: "But of course he's no Adam Lambert"? LOL"

I'd love to hear if the breathing helps -- wish I'd thought of it at my shows! For me it is partially task overload. Too much to attend to: sets, lighting, three video screens, stage, thrust, instrumentalists, audience members distracting me, and then this amazing man. Even Adam alone is overwhelming. I want to put all my attention on every nuance of his voice, no his technique, no his interpretation, no his costumes, no his movement, no his interaction with the band, no his interaction with the audience, oh hell! I missed it! I know I missed something. Can I hit "replay" pleeeeez? I am thinking if I had seen the videos before seeing the show live, perhaps it wouldn't have all been new and I could more easily take it all in. But, nah. When I saw GNT, I had already seen a whole summer of videos. Still, I walked out of that concert thinking "I wasn't paying attention! What is wrong with me?" Of course, I WAS paying attention... there was just too much to take in. For me, tho', the VOICE and the sheer presence of the man are what tip me into brain overload. I think I would feel the same way at an "Evening with Adam Lambert" concert in a symphony hall with just Adam and a piano accompaniment. Enjoy everything you can. |
