Luna Park is an 8,280-seat arena, located on the corner of Corrientes and Bouchard Avenues, in the barrio of San Nicolás, east Buenos Aires city and near Puerto Madero. I guess this likely means those rumors about Brian running for Parliament were greatly exaggerated...or else that's down the road. IDK. I have no idea when the elections in the UK take place. I was thinking probably stadiums in So America. I wasn't interested in that. Now....arenas......hmmm. Just looked on a map....it's a long ways to Buenos Aires....longer flight and more expensive than to London. Think I'll just keep my fingers crossed for some type of TOH one-off during 2015.

I don't know if it bugs anyone else, but I absolutely cringe when strangers call Adam 'baby', 'sweetheart', 'Addy', 'my love' and all these more intimate terms. Does that bug anyone else? I don't hear it here..it's mostly a twitter thing. OK, done. Needed to vent that. Silly little thing in the scheme of life but I don't like mosquitoes much either.. Yep creeps me out too.

I'm ninja-ing around Twitter and I found this screencap on the Twitter of an Argentinian Queen fan. I have NO IDEA what Facebook page it is from - the page name is conveniently cut off. However, the date indicates that it was posted yesterday evening. My own translation: " Queen + Adam Lambert will be in South America at the end of the year. Obviously, Buenos Aires (BsAs) Argentina will be one of the dates.
Since Brian May wants closed stadiums (arenas), the tentative place will be Luna Park, and two possible dates." Luna Park info on Wikipedia: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luna_Park,_Buenos_Aires Edit: proboards is not recognizing the link to Wikipedia as a valid URL due to the mid-link comma, so just c+p I don't recall Brian saying anything about closed stadiums/arenas -- and they played an outdoor show in the Q+AL North America 2014 (Columbia. MD). Did I miss this. If they play an arena, Luna Park seems the most likely. Last time Queen played Buenos Aires, Q+PR 2008, they played Estadio Velez Sarsfield -- en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jos%C3%A9_Amalfitani_StadiumMaybe I am dreaming but I hope they play Estadio Antonio Vespucio Liberti AKA River Plate Stadium or simply El Monumental. This venue holds 70,000 people or so.

I guess we will see what happens, but once it does, it's on fast-forward.

Yes, vivlite, those inappropriate terms make me cringe too--comes across as the persons using them are inserting themselves too much into Adam's private space. I always try to think how it must come across to Adam. But then again, I also try to remember Adam's response to an interviewer who once asked him if he feels annoyed, upset etc by "over zealous fans" who may cross the line--and he answered that he understands that most of it comes from a place of passion and love-and he always appreciates that.

You state Buenos Aires pretty factually, is this a done deal? My understanding is mid-September, Buenos Aires is a go. But no one from Queen has confirmed it. Although Brian's non-denial of South America was pretty close to a confirmation they are headed to South America. He did not need to post this non-answer on Twitter. Have we not kinda discussed this twice before re Rock In Rio ..... The band....Queens of the Stone Age is on the line- up, which had been confusing when this was tweeted out months ago. Could be that QAL will be a later addition....Brian May is not saying no.... ....however, for now all I can do us cross fingers that opportunities of interest to QAL lead to exciting new countries/people ....to open eyes and ears to Adam's talents and the amazing collaboration of QAL.

I think there will be some summer fair & festival one offs.
