I wonder if Adam will release some songs (but not a whole album) this year. Seems like releasing a whole album wouldn’t work with the inability to do a lot of promo, but a few songs? Maybe.

I just looked at the Glasgow prices.....wow...and the pound is worth 1.76 CAD so man are they raking it in!! There is something quite obscene about that sort of pricing....seriously....soon concerts are going to be just for that 1% of the population that gets most everything they want! Yikes. Well....I truly we don't get fed some sort of tripe about "doing this for the lovely fans" because this is a money grab...pure and simple! Here was me getting all excited....sheesh....guess not.

Oh my. That old, bare-chested photo of Adam is swoon-worthy. That amazing hair. That incredible bone structure. Those eyes. Those freckles.
I hope this is a busy year for Adam in many ways. The QAL tour will come around and the guys will WOW everyone as they always do.

But concerts are already a bit like that. Some of us cannot afford the money it takes to fly to Europe, accommodations, concerts, etc. I'm retired...that's way out of my price range. Adam's online concerts were much more favorable to my budget. But to be fair, QAL concert tours are a HUGE production. They have a vast number of people making it happen...all those people have to get paid. Pretty sure it would be much cheaper if they would all just sit on a stool and sing, but that's not their style. |

Walked into my local pharmacy today just as Adam was singing it’d be ecstasy. I find it interesting how my ears zoom in on that voice even when it is just softly playing background music!

I was just messaging to an LA fan. She has had tix for Paris and Antwerp, but just added the two Madrid dates. With insurance.
If I had druthers, I would have looked into Glasgow, but work was a B**** today. Maybe QAL may find a little time for a brief NA warm-up tour?

I agree. You are paying for the type of tour/shows you are getting. QAL is going to cost more than an Adam Lambert solo tour. And people paying $20- 30 for a club/bar tour are going to pay less than they would to see an Adam Lambert concert tour or Vegas Residency. I think QAL tickets are in line with major tours, even a bit less than some. It takes a lot of hard work to work your way up to that level but they do offer different pricing for different budgets. I never buy the most expensive QAL tickets but I also don't need to go with the cheapest seats, lol. |

Well....I truly we don't get fed some sort of tripe about "doing this for the lovely fans" because this is a money grab...pure and simple! Here was me getting all excited....sheesh....guess not. Unfortunately, I have to agree. I will say the two best concerts I have ever been to in my life were my Queen adventures in Detroit and Nashville. I had front row seats both places and spent some money doing that. I have never regretted those two evenings. Ever. BUT it is a shame that concerts should be so expensive. There are so many factors pushing the prices beyond most peoples' grasp. And, now, that Queen seems to be playing the same set lists, etc. I would only be going to see the staging and Adam (primary reason for front row seats - lol). Here's where I agree about the "money grab" observation though -- has anyone noticed all the Queen songs being played on commercials these days? I've noticed a number of brands using them. So, it seems that Queen is putting their catalog out everywhere to be used for everything. I get it. Might as well rake it in while they can and everything is relevant and wanted. But, yikes, it's almost oversaturation to me at this point. Also, may I just add, I keep waiting to hear Adam's voice on some of the commercials. Yes, I'm one of those fans. |
