Maybe coz Brian and Roger are choosing Adam to work with them. While Constantine think they will call him, since he said he has worked with both of the Queen members before. I wonder when did they do that, was it when both of them were mentors on Idol?
Maybe Talon or Q3 knows? Brianmay.com posted this interview of CM but no actual mention of them working with him. brianmay.com/queen/queennews/queennewssep09a.html[/span] August 3, 2009 EXTRACT: Q: What was it like working with Brian May of Queen and those guys? That had to be incredible for you. Maroulis: Oh, clearly. Just legends. I plan on tipping my hat to them in my show at Joe's and the subsequent other venues. It was an incredible experience, and when I did the song on "American Idol," it was still so early on in the season and all, that they hadn't had one song really jump out of the show like that until then, and I was honored to jump into those shoes to do that, but we were just at the beginning of the digital age for downloading and stuff, so they saw the spike in their catalog, and it was the first time that people were saying, "Wow, maybe this 'Idol' thing could really help sell the records of these artists as well," and thereafter you started seeing more artists comply with letting them use their songs on the show, and then you saw more and more artists lining up to perform on the show. Brian May's been amazing. I've gotten to see Queen with Paul Rogers [singing] as well, and it's pretty awesome; it's a whole different sort of take, and I think they did a track with Adam Lambert recently, too, so it's awesome that they've been so supportive and involved with the "Idol" family and the talents in that as well and still to this day. FULL INTERVIEW HERE_____________________ Not sure if this was released by CM and needed their advice or just self-made..... Bohemian Rhapsody-Constantine Maroulis KILLER QUEEN - A Tribute to Queen [/quote] Constantine has never performed with Queen (Bri + Roger) but he has "worked" with both of them and has covered their music for years. Constantine's most famous performance on Idol was Bohemian Rhapsody. He later covered the song on a Queen Tribute album performing it with the cast of We Will Rock You, Vegas. (I think that the WWRY cast on the album track is the "worked" with Roger.) From Wiki: "At the personal invitation of Queen's guitarist Brian May, Maroulis later recorded a studio version of the track for Killer Queen: A Tribute to Queen, which was released on August 9, 2005 on Queen's label, Hollywood Records." Oddly, this tribute album also had a BoRhap cover by The Flaming Lips, too.

Yes I agree Adam is not big enough at this stage of his career to attract enough people to play at Wembley. I mean the ones who are the Gagas and Perry's, so its relative. But O2 I could see Adam and Queen as a collective fitting the bill. I do believe one day in the next 5 years Adam could sell out arenas like Wembley, considering Adams immense potential. But for now your right. Do you really think Gaga or Katy Perry could fill up Wembley stadium? I thought now it is really hard for any tour to do something like that. I would think it would take a multiple of big names to fill Wembley now. I know....QAL could do an ending concert there paying tribute to Freddie and make it a concert to benefit the fight against aids. Get people like Elton John, The Rolling Stones, Bowie, Muse, Paul McCartney, etc. to play and QAL would close the show. Now that would be going out in a really big way and doing something really special in Freddie's memory for the fight against aids. You could also include people like Pink, Perry, and other popular artist out there today if you wanted. I know...I know...it's just my dream. Yeah I agree no one today as a solo act could fit a bill at Wembley, just trying to emphasize Adams circumstances. I like your idea but your right just a dream haha.

Is this another boy band that appeals to the young teens? Simon Fucking Cowell is their promoter I'm guessing? Well somebody besides teenagers have to be buying tickets to sell Wembley 3 times I would think.
