Isle of Wight Festival's Greatest Ever Headlinerswww.festicket.com/magazine/features/isle-wight-festivals-greatest-ever-headliners/
4. Queen + Adam Lambert, 2016
No one will ever fill Freddie's shoes. Queen realised this when appointing former Free frontman Paul Rodgers as their temporary singer during an ill-fated stint from '04-09. What they subsequently realised after that period, however, is that Queen's vast catalogue of bombastic sing-a-longs, embedded so deep within popular culture, need to be performed with a bit of extravagance. Teetering on a tribute act of sorts when announcing their tour with former Pop Idol contestant Adam Lambert, it gave Brian May and Roger Taylor the flamboyant injection they needed. In what was their debut headline performance on the Isle of Wight, it was the closest thing you'd get to see Freddie strutting on-stage once more; 'Don't Stop Me Now', 'Who Wants To Live Forever', 'Radio Ga Ga' were all executed with the blend of exuberance and emotional gravitas that only Freddie could bring. When he appeared onscreen during the second verse of 'Bohemian Rhapsody', there wasn't a dry eye or arm aloft in the crowd. www.youtube.com/watch?v=nBAmzixb4eA

Just a heads up, someone on facebook has had their Ticketmaster a/c hacked and their QAL ticket electronically transferred to a buyer. Anyone with electronic tickets stored should check their a/c and change passwords.
This is the ticket just in case anyone gets offered it:-
SEC 5, ROW B, SEAT 5
Aug. 22 at State Farm Arena/Atlanta, Ga.
