OMG! Where do I start? They just nailed it. I think word will get out ASAP that this is THE show to see in Vegas. They may have had to scale it down, but you sure couldn't tell by how they performed. It was an arena show through and through.
I LOVE Adam's hair. The curtains make him look so young and I love how he runs his hands through that sexy mop. He totally nailed Heartbreak Hotel! He gave it just enough Elvis to pay homage but he didn't overdo it. He did give us a real pelvic gymnastics treat. Loved it! That's what Vegas is all about. A lot of camp with a dose of decadence. Bring it on!
They all looked and sounded fantastic. Loved the set design, too. They were all in top form. I love seeing tweets from people who say they are NOW Adam Lambert fans. Music to my ears. Each show is great PR for Adam as a solo artist. Nine more shows to go. It's gonna be a great ride!

Thoughts on Heartbreak Hotel
First impression, covering Elvis in Las Vegas = cliche.
Then, in rapid succession:
Loving Brian and Roger playing this rock and roll classic, they killed it.
Adam, of course, slayed the vocals.
Would have loved to have seen him totally change it up, go totally bluesy.
All of the above my opinion only, and subject to change as the residency continues.
Side note: interesting that people thought Purple Haze about the purple coat, I see the connection, but I thought Prince, by appearance, not by Purple Rain.

And just for fun:
Elvis in 1956 when they wouldn't film him below the waist because of those swivel hips. We're lucky that era passed before Adam came along!
and in 1968 (love the grit)
Also wanted to say about Vegas, as others have noted, the pure joy that Brian, Roger and Adam share and convey to the audience. What a gift. It's as music should be done. Pure magic.

Not showing Adam's Elvis moves is very problematic. On the other hand, the sound in this video is much better, you can really how good Adam's singing is, and the song starts from the beginning. Waiting for a video that will combine sound and vision...
