The video is at the link. Nice little piece. But I don't get how people (media) keep saying stuff like this: "Within a five-year span, the Indiana-based singer released two studio albums, embarked on five tours and starred in various TV series." Just because you were born somewhere doesn't mean you've lived there your whole life. Good grief. A quick look at his Wikipedia pages would fix that. Did anyone grab it because it isn't playing. |

www.billboard.com/biz/current-boxscoreRank Artist/Event Venue City/State Event Dates Gross Sales Attend/ Capacity Shows/ Sellouts Prices Promoters
3 Queen + Adam Lambert O2 Arena London, U.K. Jan. 17-18, 2015 $3,300,140 33,003 /
34,093 2 / 0 $1,365.68, $74.35 Phil McIntyre EntertainmentSO strange! How were these not sell outs if there were no tickets available? Where were these 1,090 seats that haven't sold? QAL sits at #3 on that list...... above them at #2 is Buble at the O2 as well, with sellout #'s over 2 nights at 30,533 /30,533 and below QAL at #4 is the Capital FM Jingle Bell Ball at the O2 with sellouts over 2 nights at 26,625 /26,625. It is all about how many more seats continued to be released due to demand e.g. restricted views and such. I noticed that as well! They did sell more seats per show than the other sell-outs. However, there were no tickets available on-line right before the show, so unless they've released to the on-site box-office and have not sold because the public was under the impression it has been sold out I don't understand these numbers... ETA: remember all those pictures in front of the huge O2 SOLD OUT sign in front of the arena entrance? |

they are starting the build up for April....this is how a label properly promotes an upcoming release. They talk about it a lot to get people excited. We are already excited!! Been excited since 2009!!!! it's not aimed at us. They know we'd buy it without a bit of promotion. It's aimed at people who may have forgotten about Adam and need to be reminded how talented he is. |

OMG, this is so funny. Adam is a chip off the old block. the funniest part Eber...I didn't like Queen. Guess that was his mom's influence. But now his does. But this is coming from a dead-head.
Love the part about Hannibal Fucking Lecktor.
I'm confused, doesn't Adam credit Eber for introducing him to Queen? |

I'm confused, doesn't Adam credit Eber for introducing him to Queen? I have seen the story told 2 ways, 1) His Dad had a lot of albums from his DJing days and 2) The Queen album was actually his mom's  |

I have seen the story told 2 ways, 1) His Dad had a lot of albums from his DJing days and 2) The Queen album was actually his mom's The Queen album's were Leila's but when Adam heard Bohemian Rhapsody the same way my daughter did through Wayne's World Eber was the one who pulled out the Queen album to show Adam where it came from. I think Adam just thinks of his parents record collection as one unit. My daughter wouldn't have known which records or books were mine or her dad's unless we specifically told her or she thought to ask. If most of the records were his dad's he probably just thought of all of them as dad's. The stories aren't really contradictory. |

It's now on YT. Houselady posted it above this post. |

ETA: remember all those pictures in front of the huge O2 SOLD OUT sign in front of the arena entrance? Also doesn't the stage setup determine how many seats can be sold? That walkway may be skinny but it still takes up space. |
