"The Argentine public is the best in the world", says Brian May. Just off stage and the adrenaline soaked, but retains the temple of Lord never loses his cool. "It's an incredible feeling. Even when they are quietly listening, I can feel the connection. It was a wonderful concert," he says. Argentina has a place in your heart. That first concert in 1981 at Velez was a milestone in the history of Queen tours because they did not expect to find such a passionate audience. And in this new visit to the country again they surprised: his 320,000 discs were sold in a special collection that he edited the nation with Universal Music Penguin and Random House. A real record that required the delivery of a table commemoration. May and Taylor looked at the picture of the picture, taken in the 70s, and said in unison: "We were so young."
Three hours earlier, GEBA was expectant. At 2130 he lowered the curtain with the insignia of Queen and began to beat in a long suspense. The public wanted to rock and everything was applause when they sounded the first notes of One Vision. The giant shadow of one of the greatest guitarists of all time was projected on the curtain disappeared a moment later, when he began to feel the battery Roger Taylor. The party had begun.
First, Adam Lambert put the voice. While it has its fans (the Glamberts), the audience was there by the two rock legends and he took care of it masterfully. The first songs were to catch a fist to the public: Another One Bites the Dust, in a voice that wore his nuanced version, and Fat Bottomed Girls In the Lap of the Gods. Entered confidence, Lambert did his: he sat in a purple chair French style to become a modern version of that Killer Queen fur coats Freddie Mercury who played 41 years ago. If anything matching these two generations of artists who became known as Queen + Adam Lambert is in theatricality. It will not miss these three provocation staged.
"I'm a lucky man," Lambert said in a speech destined to end with the inevitable comparisons. The singer also thanked "Thanks to Brian and Roger for letting me sing his songs and a very special thanks to Freddie Mercury." He exclaimed, and then face the heat tribunero Argentine chanting Ole, ole, ole, Freddie, Freddie. "Tonight we will celebrate Freddie together," and came "Crazy Little Thing Called Love". By then, Brian May had finally taken his Red Special, the legendary guitar that he built with his father and sounds like no other.
With "Somebody to Love", Lambert was completed pocketing the most skeptical. He paced his voice all places, with an impressive vocal power. "She has an amazing charisma. God commanded us, because we did not seek," Brian May said later. Purists argue that May could well have taken the place of frontman fact again demonstrated that you can connect with your audience when singing solo "Love of my Life" and the song dedicated to Argentina, "Words of love". But the unavoidable tone of nostalgia in recitals great glories of music whose heyday has passed, in this case diluted and redefines a young vocalist and current, modern and fresh air that he gave to Queen in this collaboration. He tried not only Lambert: the presence of Rufus Taylor, son of Roger, was a real revelation of the night. He took the lead at various times of the show, mounted battery Roger when he dared to sing an explosive version of "A Kind of Magic" and then taking the maximum potential rate at two batteries. They even encouraged a duel: Father and son shook their manes with powerful improvisations and gave chair of pure rock and roll.
Another appeal to the times: the big selfie who brought May and then posted on social networks. "Argentines are cornered," the guitar hero threw the microphone and in Spanish. He loves to practice in these lands.
A passionate version of "Under Pressure" consecrate Lambert finished as the voice, and success followed: "I Want to Break Free", "Who Wants to Live Forever", "Tie Your Mother Down" and there was even time for " Ghost Town, "Lambert, reversionado with incredible riffs of May. "Do not Stop Me Now" she sounded more rhythmic and modern, and danced all GEBA. They followed "Radio Gaga", "I Want It All" and expected "Bohemian Rhapsody", which appealed to the same trick on tour with Paul Rodgers: Mercury projected on the big screen for the operatic segment, ending in a false duet with Lambert. In the bis were no surprises: May an Argentina shirt and donned football songs arrived they could not miss, "We Will Rock You" and "We Are the Champions".
Two hours and a quarter before a crowd and members of Queen are talking enthusiastically dressing. Brian May talk with the nation with a rice cake on hand. The albiceleste shirt was changed to a floral print shirt and looking relaxed and happy: "Argentina is important for us is historical We have friends here and feel all that love, we had amazing, hopefully we can come back..."
