Pretty sure Brian said something similar before OZ/NZ/ and Japan. The changes were very minor. I am not expecting any big changes other than switching a few songs in & out like they have been doing. My experience with seeing big tours, like this, is they stay pretty much the same. And for the people going in the UK & EU, it will all be new to them anyway! Just guessing that most have not watched 100s of You Tubes. I expect some changes since Queen usually modifies the setlist for the UK -- nothing "major" but some changes. Brian said a few -- and that could be 3 - a new Brian song, a new Roger song and a rearranged bass solo. I am hoping for 1 new Adam song. Whatever else, the basic Queen hits setlist will be there -- so there is not a lot of room for change. And the setlist is pretty close to perfect so why screw with that. They will change something. I do not know what but something new will be there so 1. the UK fans get a special show and 2. so fans/the press have something to talk about. In addition to the shift to the UK, they are promoting QF now instead of Rainbow Live '74. I think they will move ABTD to a different place. I think they could drop SCC and Adam could pick up a new song. I think they could add a song or two from QF. That make me think that "Drowse" could be added/worked into the Roger section, and Brian could shift from '39 to something else, maybe "Too Much Love Will Kill You". I really do not expect to hear "Body Language" in the UK, and expect Neil to have a less "funky" bass solo. I expect to hear LOML and TWTD in the UK -- and there will be tears. Here are some possibilities that I think are all possible -- not a major change but a few changes to the basic Q+AL 2014 setlist: Procession (recorded) 1 Now I'm Here 2 Stone Cold Crazy A. This could get dropped since Rainbow has been released. 3 Another One Bites the Dust B1. Move this later in the concert, perhaps move TYMD here. ABTD is not gold in the UK. 4 Fat Bottomed Girls 5 In the Lap of the Gods... Revisited 6 Seven Seas of Rhye 7 Killer Queen 8 Somebody to Love 9 I Want It All 10 Love of My Life 11 '39 C. Brian could change this to something else. 12 A Kind of Magic D. Hoping Roger works in "Drowse" here, but not betting on it, just hoping. 13 These Are the Days of Our Lives 14 Bass Solo E. Neil likely to do a different selection of songs, "Body Language" was not a UK hit. 15 Drum Battle 16 Under Pressure 17 Dragon Attack 18 F. Some new song by Adam. Hoping for YTMBA, Save Me or Liar. I rarely get what I want. I think YTMBA would be amazing segueing into WWTLF. 19 Who Wants to Live Forever 20 Last Horizon 21 Guitar Solo G. Hoping Brian includes a bit of "Bijou" here. He did a bit at a least 2 US concerts. I want more! 22 Tie Your Mother Down B2.They could move ABTD here or to encore. 23 Vocal Solo H. Adam might have something a bit more structured now.24 I Want to Break Free 25 Radio Ga Ga 26 Crazy Little Thing Called Love Note: I would love it if they worked in another be of a song here. Maybe a few bars of Jailhouse Rock or some other classic rock song.27 Bohemian Rhapsody Encore: J. They could add a song or two here. They often extended the concert in the UK and did a 4 song encore. 28 We Will Rock You 29 We Are the Champions God Save the Queen (recorded)

Dr. Brian May @drbrianmay Not givin' too much away here ! But the Queenies are back in rehearsals - with a few new twists for home turf ! Bri pic.twitter.com/hlAsZLvVAg Oh that sounds very promising! And a FEW would seem link more than a couple new songs -- maybe 3 or 4 setlist changes? Here's hoping. I would love it if maybe they did "Bijou" (more than just the bit Brian played in that one US solo) but with Adam singing the intro. It is my favorite Brian May guitar solo. That might be too much a "Freddie" song to have Adam sing in the UK -- and I would be OK with a video of Freddie like they did on the Q+PR Tour. But it is one of Freddie's best compositions and really right where Adam's voice is at its best -- I think it would be a stunning tribute to Freddie to have it performed live. I still have my fingers crossed for "You Take My Breath Away" and Roger performing "Drowse". I can't believe that they soundchecked "Drowse" just randomly. I am so happy I decided to go. And more happy I am flying over on a no-concert night. I don't want to miss a concert -- even if it is a live stream event! I'll take anything new that hasn't been sung before. I guess we'll see but I hope there's at least one song swapped out. I may be able to get the live stream for part of the Glasgow show from the airport. My flight takes off at 4PM that day, so depending on where I'm at, I may be able to get a bit of it. Looking forward to meeting you!

I agree with Adam on this too. It is art and powerful. If I saw the plan and casting for this, I would see the real potential to trigger strong, negative emotional responses from many people who related it to personal experiences with sexual molestation and child abuse. I think Shia LaBeouf is excellent, just sure why not they could not have cast a young woman vs. a 12 year old girl for the female Sia self? I believe the controversy was expected and hoped for -- like much of what Sia has done lately, it fells contrived and not authentic.

Happy 2015 everyone! FYI -- American Idol is finally posting full episodes online. Previously, they only posted clips from the show. So for anyone who might miss one of the Adam-related episodes, here's where you can watch after the broadcast (via ew.com): insidetv.ew.com/2015/01/08/american-idol-online/Excerpt: Fox’s American Idol is embracing the digital age.
For the first time in the show’s history, full episodes of the hit singing competition will be available online the day after they air. The show’s distribution shift begins today, with Wednesday night’s 14th season premiere now available.
Idol episodes will be on Americanidol.com, FOX Now, and Hulu Plus services, along with VOD providers like DirecTV, Comcast, and Time Warner Cable. Previously, only American Idol clips were available online the next day.
Thanks for posting that. I've hardly watched AI, and usually not the initial auditions. I just watched episode 1 online and had a fun time. Apparently, gone are the days of crazies auditioning in banana costumes, etc. Also, no one was berated. Some were excellent and some not so much, but none were completely laughable like in the old days. I might watch more, especially since it's online and I'm usually busy when it airs.
