Thank you Monsterdeto. You get a prize for one of the best first posts! Trying to keep up with the thread and interviews has left me like this; Last night I asked how Adam could be in San Francisco to give a free show on June 24 when he's taping in London on Jun 21 and rehearsing with Queen to put on a show in Kiev when? It just doesn't make any sense for him to fly all the way back to the US to put on one show. With traveling time and jet lag he would also be; I like order and this is disturbing me.

which categories is Adam in? I found the "fan army" one...voting there for now That is the one he is nominated for. They also used his photo/video for Animated GIF in the Best Vintage Revivals -- but that is not a vote for Adam. Adam is also nominated for Must Follow Artist on Twitter. www.omusicawards.com/vote/must-follow-artist-on-twitter

He is flying back for that show and then back to London, he mentioned it in one of the Canadian interviews where he said he was going to London to start rehearsing with Queen then he mentioned having to fly back for a show in SF.

Just my take on the Adam with Queen -- I do not think most Queen fans care that much about Adam --- the big issue is that many Queen fans think that the band name Queen should have been retired when Freddy died. They think Brian, Roger and John (before he retired) should have used a new name. This has been an issue with Queen fans for years -- since Freddy died. If Paul McCartney and Ringo toured as the Beatles, I would expect John Lennon fans to react similarly. And Journey fans are having the same debate -- is it still Journey without Steve Perry (he is still alive but they are using substitutes). I have mixed feelings about Queen -- I refused to see them live since Freddy died because it was always with impersonators -- even when George Michael did it -- but now will be there. I think Adam belongs on that stage with Queen. I think Freddy would approve of it because it will be a new take on the music. I want to see this music done in the 21st Century -- by a 21st Century Man. But I still have no interest in Freddy impersonators -- there was and is only one Freddy. Just like there is only one Adam. I'm a Queen fan too, I love Freddie as much as I love Brian, Roger and John. I also hated it so much when someone who didn't have enough qualification or don't have the Voice tried to sing Queen songs. I even hate it when Aguillera and Katy Perry sang them. I don't care if Christina has the voice to sing Queen songs, she took it way too far OR too R&B (and I love R&B) and I hated it with passion and have to mute my TV because of it. But I'm on the open minded side about Brian and Roger performing as Queen. Each members have their contribution to the band so I think the band Queen is as much as theirs as it's Freddie's or Johns. Now it would be weird if only one member using the name. In regards to George Michael, I have to disagree with you. Queen has been so careful to pick someone to sing with them, and that's why they've been choosing a singer who has their own household name and their own singing style because of that reason alone. They don't want an impersonators singing with them. George Michael has his own style so there's no way he is an impersonators so is Elton John, plus if I'm not mistaken he and Elton John only performed once with Queen on Freddie's tribute concert. In regards to Paul Rogers, he has his own band and just like Roger Taylor said, Paul's singing style's more blues/jazz. About our Adam. Yes Adam has the same range as Freddie, has that charisma on stage and also very theatrical as Freddie, and eventhough Adam releases pop songs, but his style of singing is still and always rock (He said this himself in one of the interview). PLUS, Adam already has his own household name in the US and some countries and Adam is also famous of his interpretation of songs or his own approached to sing a song. We know Brian & Roger have been following Adam's career and they know this very well; and that's why Brian said he couldn't wait to hear Adam's interpretation of Queen's songs. That's whay they want these concerts to see how it goes. If the concerts are a success, and if Adam's schedules permitted, I believe we will see more of them.

I one of the recent interviews he mentions rehearsing with Queen, then flying back for a show in San Francisco, then back to London. Something about a lot of flying. So, it may not make sense, but, there it is. I think that Simon Cowell routinely flew back and forth from London to LA every week when he was doing Idol... at least for a period of time. That's show biz.

I just saw Cassie's calendar, the Royal Albert Hall is next week right? June 7th. So do you think Adam is rehearsing with the band these couple of days before he has to fly to UK tomorrow? And the band will follow him next week.

Thanks for your replies Cassie and Rhiannsu.
Simon Cowell didn't have to sing after all that traveling. I'm concerned about BB's health.
