A German article, which is, I think, based on Brian Mays radio 1 interview today. I translated it with google-translate, because I have not that much time and made little corrections: www.gala.de/stars/ticker/CMG9c28fa64-b35a-46e7-a093-bb47309952f2/Brian-May-Ich-verstehe-moderne-Musik-nicht.html
Brian May: I do not understand modern music'Queen' guitarist Brian May has difficulty in finding access to modern music.The guitarist from 'Queen' ('We Will Rock You') is one of the rock veterans - his kind of music is not necessarily found today. Today, more dance tunes and R & B songs are hot, as the British had to find the other day: "I drove with the car and had 'Radio 1', and I really do not understand much ... I'm too old to still understand this, "laughed Brian May in an interview with BBC Radio 1 '. 'Queen' will do some concerts this year. The 'American Idol' Star Adam Lambert (30) will take the place of the late singer Freddie Mercury († 45). The Americans took part in the eighth season of U.S. talent show and placed second. The show was broadcast in 2009, and May was a big fan: "It's very exciting, we will go with a young man named Adam Lambert on tour and it will all be completely different and new Adam is really a sensation, and he has a great. voice. I was immediately attracted to him felt as if I had a look at that. We have looked at the finale and they were both great, but Adam has this incredible vocal range. Freddy would be thrilled, "said a delighted Brian May. |

Shouldn't we have a standard tweet? The phrase in the thread is way more than 140 characters - fine for sites other than twitter. I'm still not sure exactly how we're matching. Is there a finalized explanation somewhere? I don't want to sidetrack this thread. Sorry if I missed an explanation somewhere. Are you talking about this phrase? "Take Adam’s 30th B’day Charity Water over the top on 2/29/12 @adamlambert Leap Day Challenge more info tinyurl.com/WeWillMatchU #WeWillMatchU" It fits fine in Twitter. If you copied and pasted it into the Twitter window, however, it shows up as more characters because whenever you quote something from Adamtopia somewhere else, this automatically gets tacked on to the end of it: "Read more: atop.proboards.com/index.cgi?action=display&board=daily&thread=744&page=1#184216#ixzz1nbAUrWx5"Delete that part and the tweet is 137 characters. Thanks murly! I totally forgot to delete that part & it now works. |

Can anyone paraphrase what's being said in this video for those who can't watch?  I hate work sometimes, it always interferes with my Adam stanning. :  Freddie would be "pretty amazed" at Adam's voice. They heard from fans of AI about Adam during season 8, so listened and were instantly drawn to Adam. Sounds like Adam was reason they went over for the AI finale They sang with Adam and "the other guy." Excited about performing with Adam. Thanks!  I think its interesting how all of these legends, and rock "gods" are completely fanboying over Adam. So cute, lol. |

There were so many posted you were probably missed. When the thread list was created. >>>>>> THE MATCHING DONATION POOL IS UP TO $5,000 --- prob $5,100. Check the list here: docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AosiFD9HWw20dFZleHJUTG00cVQtc285dms2ZWdUckE#gid=0NOW COMES THE REALLY BIG CHALLENGE --WE ARE GOING TO NEED TO GET ABOUT 1,000 FANS TO DONATE. THIS IS GOING TO REQUIRE SPREADING THIS BEYOND ADAMTOPIA TO OTHER ADAM FANS SITES, AdamOfficial.com, ALF AND TO TWITTER. So do what you can to spread the word. I had just decided to go over to the Adam thread at Television Without Pity and post about the Charity Water drive--wasn't sure it was allowed because their rules are so arbitrary, but I have a back-up identity in case I get banned so I thought I'd go for it--only to discover that the Adam thread has been locked. Apparently there's a rule against debating how successful Adam is, and said rule was broken, so now the thread is unavailable for a few days. Damn. The moderators over there are mad with power and love to punish everyone when they step a toe out of line. Yeah - I got a warning about my last post in Adam's thread and even after reading the mod's explanation, I have no clue why I got it. ??? |

Quoting Brian: "It's very exciting, we are touring with a young man called Adam Lambert so it will be very different and new,' he told BBC Radio bit.ly/yEscidTOURING sounds like more than one show! |
