Yeah for RS and FOUR (four baby four) stars!!! It's also worth noting that Rolling Stone assigned this review to someone as well known as Rob Sheffield rather than Jody Rosen (who did the FYE and NCOE I think - I've never been a fan of his) or one of their other senior reviewers who really only love classic acts and/or indie bands. I like Rob's writing style -- even when we don't agree. (He loved Gaga's BTW and he explained why very well - not well enough to convince me  but still he made some good pts - and made up for it w/his Jack White review). I now have my fingers tightly crossed for another couple of positive reviews from similarly respected reviewers. (As Eber points out, commercial success is good too and a hit single would certainly help there so I continue to make my daily NCOE requests!!) HI FRIEND!!!!!! Isn't today GRAND ;D AFL is being recognized as the creator, originator, producer of a 4/5 fucking star Rolling Stone review album. NOT to mention all the reviews that ACKNOWLEDGE his voice. Let me say this again.......HIS VOICE!!!!!!!!!! Sooooo happy for Adam, this man is so very deserving of all the praise. (Maui told me, just today ;D, Mika should come swim with us, he LOVES DOGS!  ) |

I see Kanadie hasn't come back with a final answer on this but I will put in my two cents. This is yet another case of mistaken identity. The Queen Extravaganza is touring starting May 26th, they started off rehearsing in Toronto but according to a recent article "Taylor and the group will move to Montreal next for full-blown production rehearsals leading up to the May 26 launch in Quebec City." Since he says "packing a show" I think they are packing the production for the move from Toronto to Montreal. Still waiting on a response. I don't expect to hear anything until the morning when the guys are back at work. You are probably right about the Queen Extravaganza, but the guy does say Queen & Adam, so that is pretty specific. YES, he does say specifically Queen & Adam...........so cool to have an inside man to keep us informed. Feel the pressure?????? Keep us informed or it will be bamboo under the finger nails until you spill |

mike lordel @mikelordel THE WORLD IS YOURS: Adam Lambert – Trespassing (2012) - #wibiya www.therealstevegray.com/2012/05/buy-adam-lamberts-trespassing-or-adam-lambert-brings-the-album-back/THIS IS MY CAPSULE REVIEW – JUST LISTEN TO THE ALBUM AND THEN YOU WILL WANT TO BUY IT TOO OWN AS IT IS JUST SHEER FUNK SOUL MOTHER FUCKING BRILLIANT. WOW. That was my first thought on finishing ‘Trespassing’. He has dance hits, he has radio ready hits, he has love songs and he plummets to the depth of his soul for the ‘real shit’. I did not expect the album to be this good. Adam’s first album was rushed and just seemed like a collection of songs with no theme. Lambert has surpassed himself here, making the most complete album of ideas and emotions for years. Right from the first song Adam is laying it all on the line, dancing up a storm in your pants with the very cool title track ‘Trespassing’….. More |

Here's my take on ZIAT: Adam has a voice like a god, i.e. Zeus. He also is one hedonistic over the top performer that oozes sex, thus the ref to him wearing a thong, which is most revealing. I think Rob Sheffield read the interview with Adam before he wrote his review. Adam talks about orgies..................... Love that one....I've been scratching my head !!!! |

I have to come here to cheer up and read all the glowing reviews. It's depressing to live in N.C. right now. I read the news a little bit ago. Really sucks. We'll get there eventually (I live in VA). |

So sad that on this glorious day on so many levels for Adam, NC passed the bill to deny civil rights for the LGBT community.

Yeah, and every week people comment about that Adam Lambert judge on the Voice. LOL People often don't pay attention. Right now Roger is with the group to get them off the ground so since an actual Queen member is involved he may have just heard Queen and jumped to the conclusion it was Queen and Adam or whoever informed him screwed up. Roger has stated that there is NOTHING in the US in the works for Queen + Adam. They have only the European shows and "they will see how it goes". The US right now is strictly Queen Extravaganza. Almost all the articles about it keep bringing up the performances with Adam so it is no wonder people keep getting things mixed up. Sounds like you got it all figured out-guess I shouldn't have wasted my time checking! No, by all means check away. I'm just pointing out the possible confusion. But you tell me, could he be talking about working the European shows? I am assuming that Packing a show is packing the production unit would they be working on that for Europe this early? Hope you don't feel I'm jumping on you here because that was NOT my intention at all. We've just been burned by these mix ups a lot. The DJ last year that swore up and down that the record label guy talking about a duet with Adam and Xtina was definitely talking about Adam Lambert NOT Levine? We know how that turned out. Just trying to keep to many people from jumping to conclusions, something this fandom is famous for. People get all excited over stuff like this then all bummed out when it turns out to be nothing so I was just trying to keep peoples feet on the ground until you came back with your info. Peace XOXOXOXO |

Adam Fucking Lambert is laying it on the line. North Carolina has just become the 30th state to ban gay marriage; or, should I say, proclaim that "marriage is only between a man and a woman". Well. We have the key to pop that lock. Time to get busy and get loud. I promise to do more than dance this time around. |
