I have a looong drive tomorrow, early in the morning - so I can't risk staying here any longer because I WILL be here half the night, reading and watching every scrap. Already nearly 8pm here. So I wish you all a wonderful night with the first QAL of this iteration.....I hope there's a wonderful stream of whatever kind and that there is lots of shared happiness in the morning.  |

Ummm, I think Nick forgot someone's name?!  If this is the Nick who does the tour blogs, then I have absolutely NO doubt that he left Adam off deliberately.He has done things like this since the start and I, and several others here, have noted it and discussed it. He has a real problem with Adam (IMHO) and I am surprised that no one close to Brian and Roger hasn't pointed it out. But he does it negatively, by omission.... The last time he really got up my nose was after the last QAL in Sth America where he went into raptures about a song (Tie your Mother Down, I think) - best he'd ever heard then went on to praise very single person on that stage... And totally ignored Adam - as if they didn't have a singer. I don't get angry about anything these days.... But I am very close to it with this man....and I know he will be excused here again....and I know it's not all about Adam etc etc... but he has a professional role and a responsibility towards QAL as a whole....and Adam doesn't need to be fighting whatever problem it is, from within the fold. And now if this isn't that 'Nick' I'm going to look stupid and start deleting.....  Just popping in to say I think you guys are looking a bit too far into it. I've talked to Nick a few time behind the scenes and know for a fact that he totally is supportive of Adam fronting Queen. He's gone on a few times (both in podcast) and behind the scenes about what a nice guy Adam is and everything. Of course his focus in reporting is going to be a bit more slanted towards the Queen side of the Queen + Adam connection for various reasons but it's not anti Adam at all. He's probably like me in that he's not a big fan of much of Adam's own solo work just because it doesn't fit his musical tastes - he's a big hard rock guy - AC/DC is his fav for example. As far as who runs the twitter...I don't think it's always Nick. I'm not certain there. But I think he's one of a few people who would be involved in tweeting so it may not have been him. Celine is actually a HUGE Queen/Freddie fan. She's been performing it for years in different fashions. Not my style at al but certainly I won't hold it against her  As regards to streaming - there could be a ton of reasons. Perhaps ticket sales (though I don't think they are doing that poorly outside of Germany for whatever reason....but as someone mentioned it could very well be a exclusivity thing. I know they've been touting Isle of Wight as the ONLY UK performance of the year and perhaps it is something to do with that not wanting a stream from another country. I'm sure it will get recorded and uploaded by someone  |
