I did some research on "the evolution of Adam during Killer Queen". Someone posted a couple of days ago a YTvideo of Killer Queen from the concert in Auburn Hills (Detroit) on july 12, 2014: instead of fanboying on Brian during the guitarsolo Like he did in Europe, he was doing the "sarcastic "yeah you are Brian May" attitude". I haven't seen that before, so I did some research to see how Adam changed things over time.
The first 2 concerts: Chigago and Winnipeg (19 + 21 june 2014): the champagne bottle is closed (so no spit only fake drinking) and Brian doesn't come to the B-stage for the solo (In Winnipeg Adam shouts "Next time can someone open that Champagne??"
3rd concert: Saskatoon (23 june 2014): open champagne bottle, so first time spitting but no Brian on B-stage
4th and 5th concerts: Edmonton + Calgary (24 and 26 june 2014): couldn't fine videos on YT for KQ
6th concert: Vancouver: Spit: yes, Brian: No. First time saying "Did I get you wet" after spitting. (and there is a little error with the mic-box in his pocket, professionally he fixes it and keeps singing)
7th concert: San Jose (1 july 2014): First time Brian is coming to the B-stage! Adam is kind of fanboying, drinks during the solo
8th - 11th concert: Inglewood, Las Vegas, Las Vegas and Houston (3,5,6,9 july 2014): Fanboy Adam
12th concert: Dallas (10 July): First time the "sarcastic "yeah you are Brian May" attitude"
13th - 15th concert: Auburn Hills, Toronto, Montreal (12,13,14 july 2014): "sarcastic "yeah you are Brian May" attitude"
16th concert and further: Philadelphia (16 july 2014): Return of the "fanboying over Brian" Adam
Funny to see how it evolves during the tour. And in South America Adam is standing more on and behind the Chaise Longue.
I Liked the sarcastic attitude but I can imagine that for the concert and the die hard Queen fans it was better to return to the fanboy Adam attitude.
I was at most of these concerts and just to add a couple things....
In Chicago -- I was so lucky and was seated right next to him on the B-Stage -- my impression was that he was surprised the champagne bottle was corked.
Here is Edmonton - very dramatic, 2 fountain event
