The box office tickets have sold, but there are tickets available on resale sites. So if anyone still needs tickets, they are out there. Some are reasonable, some are absolutely exhorbitant. I'm so glad that the box office tickets have sold out. I was at the Queen forum yesterday and one of the fans (a PR fan too), was hoping Queen won't sell out the tickets. He definitely doesn't know the power of Adam fans" LOL. Plus these fans don't know what they're missing. Well this person must not be a real Queen fan (PR person are not) if they want Queen to fail. I would think they would respect what Queen wants to do. How could they NOT want to have the amazing songs Queen have created be heard for generations to come. Sorry...but I consider people like that just fools!

I know, it's a great song , there is no one like Meat Loaf .. Great dramatics with great vocals. He is so wonderfully OTT rock n roll and everything in between. I read an article about him, a long while back talked about all his trials and self doubt.He never fit the mold type of thing,I think he really gets an artist like Adam. he's a big generous lovable person. sort've like someone else we know. YUP for sure

Chokehold is like CLYG and Depeche Mode's Master & Servant combined.Edgy and emotional. Is it weird that I think it's the sexist song on the album?I want Adam to make a song with Nile rogers, Sam Sparrow and Mark Ronson. I know, I'm greedy ;D. I don't think it's weird at all--ITA! Shady, Kickin' In are sexy FUN but Chokehold is just pure sex. Period. IMO That bring it on back hook is fuckin' perfect. And my #1 dream collab for A (besides Bowie, which is more fantasy) IS MARK RONSON. I tweeted and tweeted this wish to Adam and Ronson! Not this time. :( But I'll bet it happens sometime!

All the talk about the videos reminded me of a pet peeve I have regarding Adam's expression:)))
Performing BTIKM on Leno's Show was so exciting to me and I loved the ethereal paleness and solemnity of his face, but at one point he made that 'desperate' expression, which bothers me a bit, kind of ruins it for me a little. He does the same thing on WWFM and BTIKM videos.
I think he magnificently pulls off hot&sexy&fierce, but when it comes to slow songs, I wish he remained solemn and dignified. So, speaking of Underneath, hopefully no crying, clutching his chest or making the desperate face.
Underneath is such a serious, deeply emotional song that adding physical display of its content to a performance would diminish its pathos and push it into pathetic. Adam should serve as the finest possible medium between the song's strong message and the audience, and thus bringing on the inevitable catharsis.
By coincidence or not, this is also the song which brings the word FREAK into the second era. ( WWFM did that in first) I have really strong feelings about that, the implication that anyone could think of Adam as one. Basically, I want to rip their heart out and feed them to it. But it also reminds me of the most famous song which uses the word, Radiohead's "Freak", and Thom Yorke manages to avoid pathetic in that video by remaining serious. Which is my point.

Adam mention. www.beatweek.com/coverstory/12723-meat-loafs-world-goes-to-hell-in-a-handbasket-the-beatweek-interview/Meat Loaf’s world goes to Hell In A Handbasket – the Beatweek interview April 8, 2012 by Bill Palmer “I can growl a word or two and make a change, and people want me to growl more, and I don’t like it. When I was working on Bat Out Of Hell, Jim wanted me to use that rough voice more than I wanted to. Every producer wants me to use this other rougher voice, and they all want me to use it, a little more Cocker-ish, a little more Steven Tyler, I guess. And I don’t want to use it. I want to use my Adam Lambert voice. I don’t have my Adam Lambert voice. I never did have my Adam Lambert voice, it’s just what I want to have. That’s funny. That makes me laugh. Adam Lambert, by the way, is possibly one of the three greatest singers in the entire world. I link him with Aretha, Whitney, and Adam Lambert. I couldn’t touch those three with a ten foot, or hundred foot, pole. Emotionally I can, vocally I couldn’t.” If anyone is interested, Meat Loaf is going on tour: www.meatloaf.net/ RECENT NEWS Meat Loaf Announces 'Mad, Mad World' Summer Tour Iconic singer MEAT LOAF has announced the first round of dates for his upcoming “MAD, MAD, WORLD” TOUR in connection with his newly released album HELL IN A HANDBASKET (Sony/Legacy). The trek kicks off in the city of Austin, TX June 22 and runs through August 2, including stops in Los Angeles, Boston and Atlantic City, with more dates expected to be announced.

96.9 The Eagle @eaglesacramento Sour grapes? Paul Rodgers doubts that Adam Lambert can front Queen. tinyurl.com/7durslsRodgers Doubts Lambert Can Front Queengbarton / News, Top Posts / 18/04/2012 10:49am Former collaborator Paul Rodgers knows playing with Queen is a dream come true for Adam Lambert – but isn’t sure the talent-show star has got what it takes to tour. Talking to Spinner magazine, the ex-Free/Bad Company frontman – who played with Brian May and Roger Taylor in Queen + Paul Rodgers – commented: “It’s probably a dream come true for Adam, but I wonder if he has the groundwork to see him through a big tour with those guys.” more...
