Has anyone here joined the Queen fan club? Is it worth it? Do they give any scoop on presale ahead of the rest of the public? I signed up for their news letter - it is free, and they do send e-mails with announcements and pre-sale passwords. www.queenonline.com/ = mid page on the left Thanks! |

I'm going to ask a question, not to be snide, but confused. Why are so many people saying the new tour will be UK and Europe? Isn't the UK part of Europe? It's not continental Europe, but . . . . Maybe there is some new designation I haven't kept up with. Thanks, someone, for answering. I think it's because the UK is their home and they want to distinguish it? That's all I can think. Oh, that makes sense. Thanks. |

Mys*&@^#r, thanks for the clarification! __ SOCIALITE LIFE @socialitelife Adam Lambert Bring His Rockstar Self Back To Los Angeles, Talks Going Full Circle On ‘American Idol’ soclfe.it/1p45DXZBy Sabba Rahbar  I truly enjoy weeks with a bunch of surprise Adam Lambert-ness, and this was a really, really good one. We got to see Adam rocking a sexy blue suit for the American Idol auditions, being silly with Jennifer Lopez and Harry Connick Jr. and even paying a visit to his good pal, Ryan Seacrest. So much Lambert. So little time. The singer seemed to bring his crazy week to an end last night as he arrived back in Los Angeles. Obviously he looked stylist, and yes he wore sunglasses at night. Usually that bothers me, but this is Adam, so I forgive. Other than the cute Instagram photos he kept posting, the highlight of Adam’s week–for me anyway–was his visit to On Air With Ryan Seacrest. It really gave you an amazing sense of who Adam is. He’s not just some guy who was on American Idol, he’s a truly wonderful human and artist. “It’s full circle and it’s kind of surreal,” he told Ryan. “I’m sitting there going, ‘This is so strange,’ but it’s such a great opportunity because I feel like, as best as I can, I can try to help them kind of see the light at the end of the tunnel and keep the big picture in mind.” And I actually awed when he said this: “Whenever I watch the show, this [judging] is the part that [is] sometimes hard to watch because I feel so bad for the kids that come in there and don’t cut it, and their dreams are crushed in that moment. So I’ve been trying to be sensitive to that, but you know, you got to be honest. And I also think that this is people’s livelihood and I think that if you can just give them some advice — even if they don’t make it through — maybe they can get better in the future.” There’s Adam, nurturing the future singers of America. In case you missed his interview–or just want to listen to it a million more times, I won’t judge–check out the videos below. And make sure to launch the gallery for some cute Lambert. Hopefully he doesn’t go into hiding now. I need him in my life. links to Ryan Seacrest interview videos plus 17 pics. (mostly the same ones)  |

JustJared.com @justjared 21m Adam Lambert just teased his third album & we can't wait to hear it! Read what he teased: jus.tj/4zsFRI, 19 SEPTEMBER 2014 AT 2:40 PM Adam Lambert Teases His Third Album: 'It's Going to Be Really Good' Adam Lambert is all about peace as he arrives at LAX Airport on Thursday evening (September 18) in Los Angeles. The 32-year-old entertainer made an appearance on On Air with Ryan Seacrest where he chatted about being a guest judge on American Idol after being a contestant years ago, and talked about his upcoming album! “I’m not going to say too much because I try to keep things under wraps,” Adam told Ryan. “I’m working on this album, I’m really excited about it. I got signed to another label, which I’m not going to reveal right now, but it’s a really good deal and it’s a good project. I’m working with an amazing executive producer. Again, I can’t say too much, but it’s going to be really good.” Listen to Adam talking about guest judging on American Idol below… (Interview video plus airport pics) |

VAlilac @valilac (Adam Lambert mentions as well) finance.yahoo.com/news/queen-forever-queen-bring-back-090000017.html?soc_src=mediacontentsharebuttons … via @yahoofinance Adam mentioned here: The third new track, "Love Kills," was composed by Freddie Mercury and famed German producer/songwriter Giorgio Moroder for the soundtrack to Moroder's newly restored and tinted version of Fritz Lang's 1927 classic silent movie Metropolis in 1984 to which he added a pop soundtrack featuring various music artists. Mercury recorded a high-energy dance version of the song that became his debut solo hit in 1985. However, it is less well known that all four members of Queen played on the original track. Prior to Queen embarking on their recent tour with lead singer Adam Lambert, Brian May proposed performing an acoustic ballad version of "Love Kills," which became one of the most memorable moments of the current Queen & Adam Lambert shows. This new Queen-Freddie studio version is shaped in the same ballad style and revives the Queen original with some newly recorded guitars and drums by May and Taylor, becoming a glorious showcase for one of Freddie's most adrenaline-charged vocal performances. And here: Queen Forever reaches back as far as 1974 with fan favorite "Nevermore," a Freddie Mercury song originally included on Queen II, the album that first saw Queen use the recording studio as an instrument in its own right. From the same year comes the dramatic power ballad "In The Lap Of The Gods… Revisited," once the grand finale of any Queen show, and since revived by Queen & lead singer Adam Lambert on their 2014 tour. Meanwhile, the upbeat single, "You're My Best Friend," written by bass guitarist John Deacon, showcased Queen's poppier side and was released as the follow-up to 1975's "Bohemian Rhapsody," becoming a Top 10 UK and Top 20 US hit in the same year and giving John Deacon his first Queen hit single. |
