Saturday Conversation: Queen And Adam Lambert On Their Upcoming North American TourThe partnership of Queen and vocalist Adam Lambert has been a successful touring act since 2011. But this upcoming North American tour finds the combo feeling like this their first run as they told me.
Unable to tour North America the last four years, due to COVID and with Rock And Rol Hall Of Fame guitarist Brian May undergoing a series of serious health issues, the band wasn't sure if they'd be back out in the States. So when the group takes the stage October 4 in Baltimore for a month-long run that wraps November 12 in Los Angeles, they will do so with the excitement of a new act, as opposed to a band that has been touring for decades.
I spoke with May, vocalist Lambert and drummer Roger Taylor about the upcoming tour, the songs they are excited to possibly add in this run and how the spirit of late vocalist Freddie Mercury is felt throughout the concert.
Baltin: Are there songs you guys are bringing back you are excited to revisit after a break?
May: Yeah, in a way. There's a little thing that happened during lock down that was very interesting. We did a version of "We Are The Champions" actually hooking up over the internet, which I think is the first time we tried to seriously do that. It was called "You Are The Champions." It was our little tribute to the medical people who were making life bearable for us all. So that happened.
Lambert: Yeah, we beamed in separately to perform it together. It was really interesting.
May: Then you do start thinking. I got really sick during COVID. Not just from COVID, but possibly a heart attack and a few other things as well. And I feel very fortunate just to be alive. That's the first step. We're still out here, we're still reasonably healthy, we can do it. And we are looking at songs we've never done before. This guy can do anything, which is great. He has a stupendous voice, he also has the personality to bring things across in his own way. So yeah the sky's the limit for us and we're constantly evolving. This tour's going to be be great. It's going to be something new and different.

The pic is very dark, but isn't this the jacket with all the slits as part of the style? He wore it someplace else - maybe UK. Could never see the back, I would presume the back is slit like the front. I don't think he did it.
