Hmmm no comments on this? Still processing whether I'm happy or upset....... I think this is just another of those rehash/speculation articles. Ryan Seacrest already broke the news that A3 was likely heading for a January 2015 release.

Re: an extended QAL tour delaying Adam's third individual album.
I can see both pros and cons to this. But I think it comes down to Adam having to decide how closely he wants his involvement with Queen to become part of his identity as an artist.
Clearly Adam wants to, and has the tools to (and now, the supporting resources) achieve individual success. But now that Brian and Roger seem to be leaving the door open to more than a guest-starring role for Adam, how important is this to him? He has talked about how much he enjoys working with Queen and how they inspire him, so we can safely predict that there's more future Queen/Adam action to come. I think Adam's capable of thriving as both an independent artist and as a member of Queen, but he'll need to determine what percentage of his time and energy to devote to each of those roles.
Handling two roles can be easier for Adam because of Brian's and Roger's age and Queen's status as a legendary band. Physically B&R can't keep up with Adam, so that places some limits on the touring. And because the public already know who Queen are, and the QAL tour has been a big success, Adam wouldn't have to be promoting Queen activities as much as he would promote his own efforts. The biggest source of potential conflict I see between Adam as single artist and Queen member Adam would occur if he starts to record new material with B&R. You can only spend so much time in the studio. Would I rather have a new Queen album with Adam, or a new Adam-only album? Ideally, this entitled fan "wants it all," but would slightly prefer new Adam music. Other fans may have a different view.
Despite some missteps resulting from inexperience, Adam has made some great decisions about his career up to now, and I think he and his management will look carefully at every angle before he chooses his priorities and defines the scope of each of his two roles. Whatever he decides to do, I'm behind him 100 percent!

Hmmm no comments on this? Still processing whether I'm happy or upset....... I think we already knew that it was delayed until early 2015. What I find interesting is that they reached out to his label but got no comment. Who did they reach out to? What is his label? We know he has one because of what he said in the Lyndsay Parker interview. Now this is another reference to his label. I'm so curious what it is.

All this talk of Adam's new label made me think this is worth a mention: on yesterday's Today show hour with Kathie Lee Gifford and Hoda Kotb, Adam's friend Ferras was there singing a song from his new album. (Which was great, BTW!) Not sure if Adam's new label is the same label Ferras is on (Katy Perry's new label), but there you have it.

Still processing whether I'm happy or upset....... I think this is just another of those rehash/speculation articles. Ryan Seacrest already broke the news that A3 was likely heading for a January 2015 release. Not sure what has people surprised/upset...... yes we already knew that A3 was likely delayed until early 2015. The 'extending the tour' part........... Shosh has already clearly stated there will be no European dates in 2014. I believe the speculation about extended dates comes once again from things posted on BrianMay.com which, as has been stated before isn't from Brian, but from the sites webmistress..... who apparently posts every article she finds mentioning Queen, whether accurately researched or not.

They may have meant his management and not his label though....... IMO.....I don't think this site is a reliable source for accurate information. Just to clarify though.... Adam does have a label..........I just don't think this site knows anything about anything! LOL

Ryan Seacrest already broke the news that A3 was likely heading for a January 2015 release. From that article: We've reached out to Adam's label for an official comment, but hadn't received a response at the time of writing. Is Mr. Easton such an insider that he knows who Adam's label is? Rehash is a good definition - with a bit of baloney thrown in...
