He thought it was great!! He was well versed on Freddie's campiness but thought Adam had a style all his own. He liked that Adam was respectful to Freddie and wasn't just an imitator. (This guy talked a lot between songs, and sang to all of the songs. I did have to tune him out for WWTLF, lol) Thanks for answering my question. I have one more if that's OK?! LOL What did he think about Adam coming out with the crown on his head at the encore? Did he get the homage to Freddie?

OT but Rolling Stones article on Nile and his new music. Hear Nile Rodgers' New Summer Jam 'Do What You Wanna Do' - Premiere by Nick Murray July 1, 2014 12:20 PM ET Over 30 years after writing hits like "Good Times" and "Le Freak," Nile Rodgers has once again become one of dance music's hottest names: In the last year and a half, the former Chic guitarist has worked with artists as big as Daft Punk, Pharrell, Avicii and Disclosure. Here, you can stream the radio edit of "Do What You Wanna Do," Rodger's first solo track since his recent rennaissance. Nile Rodgers Picks His 8 Favorite Disco Hits The song was recorded in Ibiza at last summer's International Music Summit and auctioned off to benefit Rodgers' We Are Family Foundation. The winning bid was placed by Cr2 Records, and the song is now being released to celebrate the label's 10th anniversary. "I've been a big fan of Chic and Nile since a very young age, and it was just a cool project to be involved with," Cr2 head Mark Brown tells Rolling Stone. "Initially when we signed the record, there weren’t any verses in the track – it was just kind of Nile's hook – so we worked with him to develop some extra verses and make it into a complete song. "Obviously he was extremely busy with the Grammys and Daft Punk, so it was lots of late nights waiting for phone calls. He was trying to grab studio time when he could, depending on his schedule, but it all came together in the end." After previewing "Do What You Wanna Do" with remixes by producers like MK, Eats Everything and Rob Da Bank, Cr2 will be releasing the official version on August 10th. It can be pre-ordered here.

Gelly @14gelly 2m Adam Lambert Dons A Killer Wardrobe On His North American Tour With Queen: 7 Pics idola.to/VCNJnu
QUEEN + ADAM LAMBERT queen adam lambertQueen & Lambert are touring the US. See the dates. Read More »
Calling all of our diehard Glamberts! As we already know, Adam Lambert has joined forces with legendary rock group Queen and rocked sold out shows across the United States — and he’s also got a rock star wardrobe fit for a king. Adorned in everything from a Swarovski crystal embellished Anthony Franco suit to his own studded fringe jacket, there’s no doubt that Adam not only brought his powerhouse vocals, but also his fashion A-game to the stage. Kicking off the party in Chicago’s United Center on June 19, the sold out 19-city tour is a true classic rock extravaganza — and also a reminder that Adam definitely has some pretty large expectations to fulfill. Check out what he had to say about the tour after the jump. “It’s not an easy feat,” Adam tells Rolling Stone. “I think a lot of the apprehension has faded because we’ve done this a number of times in the past couple of years. That’s not to suggest I’m getting cocky at all, because I will never compare to Freddie Mercury. He’s one in a million. At this point, I know how to strike a balance between honoring the way these songs were originally meant to be sung and my own instincts, my own choices.” Nevertheless, it seems as though the shoes fit, and Adam is customizing them to perfectly cater to his personal strengths as well. So, do you think Adam has lived up to the challenge? Check out the gallery from the official Queen & Adam Lambert Tour above, and let us know your thoughts in the comment section below.
