On the single I am adopting the "Que Sera" philosophy. What will be will be and I trust Adam to put out something fantastic whether it's uptempo or not, upbeat or not, club banger or not. On the Queen stuff just LOVE that Roger and Brian have both said such fabulous things about that performance with Adam. Here is what I have been thinking about though. Both of them talked about Adam having grown as a performer and I don't disagree with that because he has. BUT, the thing is when Brian and Roger performed on Idol with Adam and Kris they did not experience ADAM. What they got was a perfect duet partner who tailored his stage presence as well as his performance so as to not totally bury his partner Kris. They got "boy next door" Adam to go with "aw shucks" Kris Allen. I don't think they were AT ALL prepared for ADAM LAMBERT in his full performance mode. Brian talked about how easy it was and you could really see it in his face. There is absolutely no doubt that Brian was having the time of his life playing off of Adam on that stage. I think Brian and Roger were absolutely energized by having a performer to work with who as Roger said "has that same over the top hystrionic performing style as Freddie did". They are probably salivating at the idea of working with him again. All the more impressive because months ago when I first heard them talking about the idea for the Extravaganza thing it sounded to me as if they were just tired of trying to make it work without Freddie. It really sounded like Roger didn't think they would be doing much of anything anymore. In the two radio interviews that I listened to since the EMA's Roger sounded so amazed and joyful about how that performance went that it really seems to have invigorated him. The best thing is they know Adam has his own career and they AREN'T planning anything huge but they do seem positively excited about the idea of more special performances with Adam. I think it is a win win situation for Adam and for them. That's exactly what I was thinking. They got to experience Adam in his full power and charisma. They were able to play in all their full on, rock and roll, over-the-top glory without having to dial it back in order to accomodate a singer's vocal or performance shortcomings. THEY HAD A BLAST with Adam! And of course, they want to do it again!

I wanted to PM you, but I can't if you are no longer registered. Oh las, do re-consider and give the mods or other members of the board the opportunity to explain why the discussion was shut down. It has absolutely nothing to do with you or your specific posts. We're friendly.

THEY HAD A BLAST with Adam! And of course, they want to do it again! I agree with both of you and I think we all knew that Adam had to hold back in order not to overpowering his friend. Just like when he sang "Crazy" with Kris and Allison. Two years ago, Adam's already great but I got what Roger's saying that he's more mature (voice/performance). Two years additional experiences with his own touring, he's more comfortable on stage and in his own style and he gets more confident. And he's easy to work with because he's so humble and grounded just like Brian and Roger themselves.

All the random twitter love floating around for Adam is almost as exciting to me as the PR flailing (not that I don't love attention from radio folks, but come on- they know what to do to make us click on their links). This is a conversation with a sports reporter at the ABC station in Detroit...
BradGalli Brad Galli I just clicked on that to play next. Top 5 Idol performance ever. RT @dogtrainingu His version of Mad World was incredible (read from the bottom up)... 3 minutes ago
@dogtrainingu Mike Harabedian II @bradgalli His version of Mad World was incredible... I wish I had bought it when it was available 8 minutes ago via web
@bradgalli Brad Galli Listening to Adam Lambert's version of "Track of My Tears." Big Lambert fan. 10 minutes ago via web

Just so we focus on the correct competition -- Adam is in competition with Bruno Mars, and somewhat with the Divas. But there are two DIVOs and only room for ONE!!!
[Tongue deeply in cheek!!]
