Thank you Maya for this...and a huge thanks to the poster for the kind words. Performers need skin like an armadillo to avoid the slings and arrows. Yes. Thank you, Maya for this and Sagittarius, also. It's nice to see a true Queen fan appreciating the amazing talent of Adam and understanding what Brian and Roger have done with this tour to bring their music explosively to a new level and generation! It's nice when you see people realize this.

Nile is in Europe at the moment playing at festivals and he was supposed to attend the concert in CT (Mohegan? on the 19th?). People keep asking him about it but his plans have changed due to a recording session. Now he says he's trying to catch QAL in the Meadowlands. Can you tell me what might that be? ??? That would be the East Rutherford, NJ IZOD date..... 7/23/14.

Thanks, *again* for posting the great gifs and pics, adamrocks.
And to everyone else, over and over again, for reviews, opinions, videos, pictures, comments, humor, information, ticket offers, meet ups, stories, just general board awesomeness. You all make my mornings. You're killing me! Wouldn't I just love to see Nile get up on that stage and play some funk guitar for Adam's Gimmee Gimmee Your Love segment. That would be amazing. And funky.

Sorry people! Stupid question, but since I have had huge problems with my credit card here in America, I need to make sure this thing before I can see that the ATM has swallowed my (only) card. My card is a debit / credit, whether it is possible to withdraw money from the debit account?Has this some connection to Adam: yes the whole damn trip is only because of Adam. Why do not I ask the hotel personnel issues: Should carry my computer down so that I can be tapped issues using the google. Butterfly, my credit card worked fine, I could get money from my bank account without any problems. The Pin code in Europe is also 4 digits as it is in the States augenpoesie! I went to three different ATM machine, was not successful . Then I went to three different banks, after all, the American bank clerk agreed to take money from my account. HUH! ATM card does not work because it has a chip!?? ??? And I just before my trip renew my card to make sure it would work in America, but unfortunately not in this case. When I got back to my hotel, it seemed to me as if Queen&Adam tour buses were parked next to my hotel!

OT but more on the Chris Klue vs Vikings football team homophobia case. Towleroad @tlrd 22h Chris Kluwe to Sue Minnesota Vikings for Withholding Results of Investigation into Homophobia bit.ly/1mHLUzL
Back in January, the Minnesota Vikings announced it had hired attorneys to lead an investigation into claims by former punter Chris Kluwe, who said in an article published on Deadspin that he was released from the team because of his gay activism. KluweKluwe also claimed that special teams coordinator Mike Priefer unleashed a homophobic rant in his presence, saying, "We should round up all the gays, send them to an island, and then nuke it until it glows." At the time, Kluwe said that he would sue the Vikings if the investigation turned up clean. But today Kluwe and his attorneys announced they would be suing the team for refusing to release the results of the recently-completed investigation, Pioneer Press reports: "After the Vikings were given the investigative materials from Magnuson and Madel, in order to further maintain objectivity and integrity, the team engaged a nationally-prominent law firm -- Littler Mendelson P.C. -- to evaluate employment law matters and provide findings and recommendations to the Vikings," according to the team's Tuesday statement. "Those recommendations are to be provided to the team this week." Kluwe and Halunen held a press conference Tuesday morning to announce the lawsuit and denounce the team for reneging on what they said was a promise to make the investigation public. Halunen said he was contacted by Vikings' representatives on Monday and was told they do not intend to make the report available either to Kluwe or to the public. "At this point we have no choice but to file a lawsuit against the Vikings," Halunen said. Kluwe told reporters that if the investigation results are released he will reconsider the lawsuit.
