Thought I'd drop this off. This is the moment immediately after that GLORIOUS note. (hope this works, I have forgotten how to post photos here) Aloha!!!!!! So good to see you, little turtle. Please join in more often. Love this photo! Ha! Cassie, I went looking for "the moment" when I saw your post. This made me so happy. And even though I don't post often (or ever), I still enjoy visiting you guys.

Nice review from the Queen fan. Thanks for posting. Glad he qualified his Show Must Go On critique with maybe Adam just "wouldn't" do the high notes. Because we know he has, but not with 24 concerts in 6 weeks! And OFC, Freddie never sang it live, right?! Why do I let myself get worked up about what other people write? Why do I even read it? This Queen fan obviously thought he was being magnanimous saying that Adam couldn't/wouldn't do the high notes. Another way of saying "He's no Freddie Mercury, but he's not bad. Good try." Bullshit! He doesn't know what the hell he is talking about. Adam hits ALL the high notes that Freddie did in the studio version. (Repeated D5s.) Every single one. Every performance. Adam ADDS even higher notes some nights. (E5 up to F#5) It seems to be another example of altered memory of a dead icon. I am sure the guy believes and even remembers hearing Freddie sing higher in that song. I played the studio version several times to check MY memory, and D5 is it. Honest. (I thought maybe one E5, but couldn't find it when I replayed it. If I missed it, mea culpa.) Maybe it is sorta like going back to the house you lived in as a little child and thinking "But, I remember the rooms being waaaay bigger than this." Freddie lives larger than life in fans' memories. It is impossible for Adam to measure up to that. That is it exactly Cassie. Freddie, as amazing as he was, has become a god in the minds of fans. He has been immortalized as so much more than he actually was IMO and I say that as a long time Queen fan and huge Freddie lover. This idea that he was this near perfect vocalist is so far for reality it borders on ridiculousness. The Queen "sound" was achieved in the studio with massive layering of vocals and not just Freddie's but Brian and Roger's too. Freddie was was a fantastic singer, musician and certainly one of the best showmen ever to grace a stage but this constant " Adam is no Freddie" nonsense is just that, nonsense. Adam doesn't need to be Freddie. Freddie lived, made his mark on the world and then he died. Adam is now doing the same and him constantly having to "live up to" what is really a mythical idea of Freddie is unfair.

Yay! Excellent shots Some are good, others are just ok. Roger is the hardest because it takes lots of tries to get a good one and the opportunities are limited with him. I didn't watermark them so take what you want
