lol...I've always wondered...If you guys could show someone ONE single video (yes broad term and it's meant that way) what would it be? Someone says: "You keep talking about this Lambert-guy...show me ONE video of what the guy is about, so that I can get an impression of him" (do people get the gist?) Haven't been posting but I will bite on this one. WWTLF from Isle of White for the depth of emotion and utter beauty of the voice. But if you want the personality showcased, one of the STL's from this tour. They are spectaular though I still have a special place in my heart for the bravura STL from the first Toronto show in 2014. He sang a lot of long notes this tour but I am not sure they beat the long note in that Toronto show and of course that was when STL was completely over the top campy - fringes and all. Why would you not choose Adam's own songs though? At least one?

I was reading over on QOL and they have 5 concerts where attendance and money have been posted. They are making it sound as if $20 tickets and cutting ticket prices was the order of the day. Conclusion over there is that this might not have been as much of a money generator as 2014 and really whether it was such a success at at all. That has not been my perception, so I was wondering were there sellouts and how did it really fare? I thought it was a bonafide success and raked in lot of money. So maybe they are just projecting their hope that it didn't do well and making it a reality per usual on that board! Love someone who knows to weigh in!! Every show has been close to Sold out, except for the 2nd HB but then there were 2 of those! IDK WTF they are talking about. Maybe someone should tell them that the VIP pricing is not included in the gross. Or maybe these peoplr just like to find something to complain about. If it's not "he's no freddie" then they invent things! BTW, we have all those numbers too. In our numbers thread!

LOVED It's Late and LOVE Adam singing it!! Cannot believe they took it out. It was soooo great. Adam did seem to struggle with some sound issues. On a couple of the performances I can really see him motioning to the sound guys. And he seemed to have to look at the prompter for some of the verses. But I sure was crazy about it. Loved Spread Your Wings too, but especially It's Late. This was my very favorite performance as well---seeing and hearing Adam perform IT'S LATE, live, that second night at the Hollywood Bowl left me spellbound. It sounded so wrenchingly beautiful -I found myself looking up into the night sky to thank the heavens for such an extraordinary soul pouring his heart out on that stage. It's a long song ,maybe more than 5 minutes and each time I heard Adam reach for more, he went further still. No video really captures the essence and beauty of this performance so I'm glad I have the memories of that night to hold close to my heart. "It's Late" at HB#2 was a major highlight for me too (as well as the event/venue itself). STL and DSMN have probably developed into my favorite Queen songs performed by Adam with CLTCL a close third. That one blew me away in Dallas. Adam ended up on the floor and Brian had fun with it. I will try to find that video. Priceless. I'm sure everybody knows what I am talking about.

I have also been having issues having to log in frequently, but not as much as you, melliemom. Sorry, everyone. I don't know how to make the font larger or how to write a post other than quick reply. Is there a quick way to change font size where it will automatically make it that size? Thanks in advance!
SONG: (1). With Queen: my first choice was already taken, but I really loved his performance of "Save Me" performed in Stadhalle Wien, Austria, in 2015. It is sung with such melancholy, and wistfulness. His expressive, beautiful eyes are on full display for longer than in many videos. I wish they would bring this back, but I guess that isn't likely to happen.
SONG: (1). Solo: medley of Runnin'/Chokehold/Sleepwalker perfumed in Gasometer/Vienna, in 2016. Firstly, the songs work great together. Secondly, and I don't know any better to say it, but he is a total bad-ass here.
